Pitting
 
Wat does everybody use as a shelter to pit in? gazebo is going to be high on the list me thinks, but.... which one? I am after a decent (but not alot of money) pit space. Any recommendations please? :)

So am i right in saying you get 2 side panels for £12.99? :woot:

Kecky 31-03-2009 08:18 PM

Damn right you are, i reckon it's a bargain :thumbsup:

Easy to set up on your own if you've got no mates to race with too :lol:

bald eagle 31-03-2009 08:19 PM

Not telling you now, you have hurt my one and only feeling.

LMAO.... gunna try and do the mid west regionals....we shall see.

showtime 31-03-2009 08:31 PM

i use & have done for a long time, one of these

http://www.galatent.co.uk/more_detai...ItemCode=07302

sides are available fairly cheaply & the roof is totally waterproof
every spare is available should it blow in during high wind etc
and they are sensibly priced so repairing rather than replacing is feasible :thumbsup:

if you'd asked for the link a month ago they were only £180 in this size!
everything gets more expensive when the sun comes out
just look how much all camping gear has gone up in the last few weeks!

Kecky 31-03-2009 08:32 PM

Good stuff matey.
Hopefully i'll get into the Nationals, plus i think i'll be doing the NorthWest regionals again and the 2wd summer series at Southport if i can get away with it ;)

bald eagle 31-03-2009 08:34 PM

I am sure they are the fish's furry bits when it comes to quality etc, but a little out of my price range am afraid... thanks anyway.:)
