Does that include 10th scale as well as i wouldn't mind having a pop down. If not to race then just to have a look at the track as i have never been down before. :)

Good to see some of you there today what did you think of the track? as the warmer weather comes it might be possible to host a few 1/10 races if your intrested.
cheers Davey

Loved it, was rather impressed at how 1/10th friendly it was, few parts are a little rough for them but not impossible, would love to race properly with 'proper' jumps like them.

it's looking http://www.metcheck.com/IMAGES/GENER...NIMATED/SU.gif for pratice this Wednesday folks http://www.oople.com/forums/images/icons/icon14.gif

Is open practise on this sunday aswell or is it just tonight. :confused:

hi mate yes there will be open practice on this sunday again, our next propper race day is the 1st weekend in june the usual classes are 1/8 buggy and truggy but ill see Phil and see if he will add an electric class into the days racing (prob 4 heats and a final) but there would need to be about 10 electric buggys to be worth doing but ill ask if there is enough intrest

What time is it on until - just for those who can't make it earlier

Also it states £7 non members on the website, unsure which one is correct.

the track is open til dark or when every everone goes its a 5iver for practice the web site will need updating

there is also a timed practice on this sunday for £7 from 10am hand out transponders are available at the track

Any 1/10th buggys going?? Duncan? Neil? James? Chris C? Chris S?

Me and LEGEND should be there with our 1/10ths.

Yeah i am going down with Josh, will be having a bash with my 2wd to see how it goes. Was going to take my Pred but i haven't had the money to get it fixed yet. Lets hope that it is like it has been all week, nice and sunny.:)

Have gotten back from open practise today and all i can say is WOW. The track is amazing it is one of the best i have seen in a long time. Slightly better suited to 4wd cars than to 2wd , but i had a go of Josh's while i was there and the track itself has a few bumps here and there but the rest of it is so thought out. All of the jumps take a fair amount of skill to complete succsesfully, but once you do it doesn't half look good. :woot: All i cna say is a Job well done to those who made it and who help keep everything in order.:)

Looking at the pictures, the track looks really good! I think you should put in for a N.E regional next year! [even though it's not built for 1/10th electric] :D

Yep, and we got sunburn :p was proper boiling and we couldnt be bothered to put the gazebo up lol.

Yes it is an awsome track but get it wrong and i can tell you from experiencer that it isn't very forgiving.:( But get it right and it is one of the best track i have raced on. Would be better for a 4wd regional, might be a bit much for 2wd.:) And about that sunburn...It bloody hurts lol:lol:

Does any one know if its on this weekend? See if we can pull a heat of 1/10 elec buggies in

Should be on as the clubs Nitro Summer Series isn't scheduled for Sunday coming. Like all clubs they need to be open to pay the landlord :mad:. So the more the merrier.

Watch the forum home page for details, usually updated beginning of the week.

But don't count me in as I'm racing 12th @ Chesterfield this Sunday :)

Isn't this Sunday the second round of the Top of the North series up in Scotland?

Yes

that'll give the 10th cars more track time if the regulars have gone North
