Full Astro Track
 
Who in the north east would be interested in having access to a full astro track??

If you are please put a reply on here so we can gauge wether it is a worthwhile venture.

The track would be close to Durham and would probably race on most Sundays throughout the year.

even though i said not keen at the meeting. i would be interested in attending once or twice a month.

AndyM 16-09-2008 02:25 PM

I thought we already had access to one; it's called Bury Metro :)

Still a good idea if you can get the regular members turning up.
Would be good for regionals too :)

Go on then Pete. What you up to? This has been about for ages so im not even getting excited anymore. Good luck whatever it is.

turbo_brick 20-09-2008 01:56 AM

There might be something built soon, but and this is a big one it needs to be supported, if it's not it'll not last long.

Kash 22-09-2008 11:57 AM

I agree with Gaz it is way too Bumpy for 1/10th scale!

Lee 22-09-2008 11:58 AM

I agree with Kash and Gaz its way to bumpy for 1/8th and 10th scale :lol:

chris68nufc 22-09-2008 05:29 PM

so if we filled most of the holes in and made it more smooth would there be more intrerest from you lot however it would never be as smooth as a floor in a building though but thats why its called offroad and its the same for everyone on the track its not haf as bumpy as some other 1\8 scale tracks ive been to either and the length coud easy be reduced

Lee 30-09-2008 02:07 PM

DAVO:

It may not be as bumpy as other 1/8th tracks but they wont race 10th on them either, im sure if you could smooth it out you would get more interest but if you manage to produce a good raceable track then we will come, its simple really, we dont want an obsticle course where you have to go slow or you will end up on your roof :)

gazbaz2 30-09-2008 10:14 PM

Davo
Im not slagging the track off matey, after all you lot have made an excellent track for 1/8th scale,
All im trying to say is, when you go round the track with a 1/8th rally cross they bounce about abit, well its 10 fold for a 1/10th, if you did smooth it out more you will get most of the 1/10th buggy lads there, defo, plus looking at the big picture you could hold regionals maybe nationals there. worth a thought, thats a canny amount of money.
