the track has had a lot of work done to it over the winter by a group of local lads. the track is now capable of multiple layouts by moving just a few hoses. the track has had a good weeding etc and has had a lot of sand removed. i went down month or so ago and the car came of the track with very little sand in it.

the actual track were running wont be put down until the day. we dont even no the layout so thell be no home advantage:drool:

the rostrum has had work done to it . its now about a foot higher and has been concreted in.

hand out transponders on the day are available

Do you know if there`s any food there bud ? Also, may aswell ask, is there a shop on site for this round ?

Hope it drains well. Forecast rain. Lets hope they`ve got it wrong like Bingham.

Track usually drys up quick

burger van be there as usual

There is a shop but I can't remember which one ill find out

Doesnt matter to me bud, just info others will want. Always useful :thumbsup:

Hope you`re right about the track, seen some recent pics and it was pretty much flooded on Monday

Looking forward to this one, hope the weather is as good as Bridgford Regional :thumbsup:

Rumour at Broxtowe SCT National last weekend was that there are bad roadworks on A17 around Sutton Bridge area, can someone local please keep us all posted as to whether it will cause delays in getting to the track at weekend?

Nice finish sunday wud b appreciated lol pub is callin for match !!!!!

Hope forcast changes as its pretty poop and track dries out

Pretty sure the road works were just last weekend . Ill check up on it

No roadworks so nothing to worry about

Hi Adam,

Just remembered i'm booked in for 4wd on the Saturday but i won't be racing so could you remove me please ( Wes Jolly ). I'll be there Sunday for 2wd though.

Cheers.

You only have to ask mate, I'll bring a extra spoon-:)

I never knew you cared Paul ;).

I usually raid Woodhouses pack up much to his disgust. :D

Any suggestions for 2wd tyres.

Yellow minispike in dry. What for wet? Dboots, ballistic buggy?

Canoe / paddle !!!!

Rain!
 

With the forecasted for heavy rain today and more rain tomorrow is it likely the track will be flooded?

Rich D mentions the track was flooded on Monday and we havn't had the best weather this week to completely dry things up.

Could somebody go and check the track is raceable on Friday evening and make a decision whether the meeting will be run on Saturday? It would be good to know Friday evening as there are quite a few people travelling a fair distance for this meeting.

Theres people going down this afternoon and Friday aswell so will let ya know

Agree with the above post, admittedly we are only racing Sunday but it would be great if people updated on here what conditions are like. 80 miles is a long way to go to find out the meeting is cancelled

You pipped me to it John lol

Me and my mate Paul are coming down from Sheffield so as John said we'd be very grateful for a track update Saturday or something..

Regards

Dave

Not that I'm a prima dona though, if it's on I'll be racing lol

Just been down the track . considering the rain we just had due a tornado going through long Sutton up the road....yeah ya read right .. the track is 80% usable with a few large puddles that were drying pretty quick

And how would you rate conditions under foot for those who have not got toes joined together:woot:
