The Track at this Venue is ALL Grass, incorporating various Obstacles, including Ramps, Table Top & unique Rumble Strip as well as a 'Dunlop' Style Bridge(with Internal Lap Counting Loop), to give it evenmore of a Racing Experience! All being well, we should have a more radical design Track Layout, another 2 Ramps & a Corner Table Top for our first Club Meeting(24th April), to make it more Challenging! Arrival time is 11.15am, Booking In will open around 11.30am & Racing will start around 12.30pm. Race Fee is £6 for Members & £7 for Non Members. All Classes of Electric are welcome, but the main Classes Raced are : Retro/Vintage Electric Class(Pre 1995) 2WD 1/10th Electric Buggy Class 4WD 1/10th Electric Buggy Class There will be 4 Qualifying Rounds(with your best 2 to Count), followed by Finals. Eric from CONCEPT RACING, will have his Shop there every week, with a good stock of Off-Road Wheels, Tyres & Inserts, as well as all of your other Buggy needs! There will also be a WEEKLY BBQ + Hot & Cold Drinks.

Hi Wraggy,
Yes, GENERATORS are allowed:thumbsup: I also forgot to mention that Camping WILL be allowed on the night before our 2WD & 4WD Mid-West Regional Rounds, at £5 per Pitch(regardless of people).:D |
looks good, will deffo be there over the coming months :)
|
Hoping to get over this Saturday, do we need to book in?
|
no m8 . book in on the day
|
can you tell me roughly what time racing finishes on the day please.:D
cheers |
We need to be packed away by 6PM so racing normally finishes around 5.
Get there from about 11.30 to help build the track with a start time of 1PM 3 rounds and 2 finals |
do you have practice or is it straight into the racing?
|
...and what time does the BBQ start :lol:
|
After a long layoff my brothers and I dusted off our old cars and entered the Retro class at Hinckley. Unfortunately the weather wasn't good, and racing was transfered to indoors - but we enjoyed ourselves
Must congratulate the Hinckley members for their hospitality- a club which makes everyone welcome and is about the 'fun' of racing Ant |
Practice is available from when the track is built until 12/55 when we try and get racing going.
Normally 12.30 the track is ready. BBQ is on from about 12.30 too :thumbsup: |
do you race on the saturday before a mid west regional?
|
...I can't make this Saturday but wonder if you have a meeting next Saturday (12th)?
