Clubs in North Wales?
 
Just had it confirmed that I'll be moving from Scotland to Anglesey this coming August and was wondering if there are any clubs around?

Currently I've 1/10th off road cars but happy to change to get into racing again once we've moved having had everything from micros up to 1/5th in the past. Would really appreciate any help.

Thanks, Andy.

Bit of a track but Southport is about 2 hours drive away. I know as my mum and dad have a caravan on angelsey and I was looking to see if I can nip back on a sunday from it. There used to ba a club in mould 1/8th dont know if that is still there and wrexham did as well.

Hi Andy,

Oswestry race 1/10th on a thursday night, currently indoors but they have an outdoor track come the spring/summer.
Ellesmere Port off roaders race Micro buggies on a friday night. :thumbsup:

Thanks Guys, I guess Ellesmere is as close as anywhere - I'm originally from Liverpool so I know Southport and the surrounding areas quite well.

I was wondering if there was anything somewhere on the a55 that I can just nip along to. Even around Frodsham / Runcorn is a bit easier than Southport (oddly my B4 was bought from a guy at Southport - might be nice for it to go back hahaha:))

Try Mold club, although I couldn't get any sense when I did last year. Wrexham also race indoors on Fridays, but mostly gt12, but I have seen buggies there.

Speak to Dave from TOP Models in St Asaph (he used to be at Gwenamynydd but moved) sure he may be able to help as it a lot closer to you - should start something up on anglessey - plenty of space. Seem to remember that there may have been something on in Colwyn Bay but this was a while ago

I used to go to Colwyn Bay...packed up a long time ago due to dwindling interest...was an indoor carpet bashing venue.

There was talk of an outdoor rc track to be built in Blaenau by a group called the Angry Scones. Looked promising but I don't think much came of it.

Mold don't race anymore, club has folded. A lot of there members do slot car racing on the same industrial site as TOP Models (mentioned above)

Thanks again everyone for your help. I will contact TOP nearer the time to see what if anythingis happening.

In the meantime I will have to find a spot for some fun.

I heard something about that, though last I heard the site had been declared unsafe as not much had been done.

Naushad 12-02-2013 06:13 PM

Well I saw some work-in-progress pics on their Facebook page and left a message asking to inform me when the track was finished...nothing. I guess it fizzled out. From what I understood they got planning permission granted from the Council.

Some chap in Anglesey tried to get a bashers group going..but lack of interest and rubbish weather has marred this too.
