Over the last 3-4 years Silverstone Model Car Club have continued to work hard on their all weather track!!

Well this year there has been plenty of hours and money spent on what we hope will be a top UK venue.

So......

August bank holiday weekend!! 28th - 29th August

We are organising a big 2 day race weekend, this will be on our all new purpose built track.

All 100% confirmed but:

2wd & 4wd over two days - 80 drivers per class
3 leg A finals
Dash for cash race for both classes - (drivers selected at random)
Evening BBQ, Live bands, Bar
Camping available
Controlled tyres - (1 set supplied, included in entry fee)
Large raffle (awesome prizes)
Trade stands for shops and distributors/manufacturers (interest growing daily)
Newspaper and magazine coverage, maybe radio
Have a go area... for general public.

Not only will this be a yearly event, it will also be attracting the public. And nothing better than being in Silverstone!!

Note: This is 2-3 weeks before the F3,4,5's so good for anyone attending to get some practice.

If you would be interested in attending/competing or even a shop who wants to show case yourself then reply on here. Shops, distributors email or PM me.

The track has seen many changes over the winter and will be worth the visit.
Sadly this does clash with the start of the 10th Euro's but this means a good chance for others to get there name on the trophy.

Entry will be £30 per class... but that includes a full set of controlled tyres and 1 raffle ticket.
This will be a real party atmosphere weekend and one not to miss!!

We are trying to make it fair for everyone...

Sadly we would like to give more time but we have plenty to get ready including drivers packs and tyres.

Please be reminded this is a controlled tyre event. This will be controlled and those found breaking the rules will be excluded.

Camping is available at £5... flat rate. No limit on number of caravans.

Raffle tickets will be available up untill 2pm Sunday, prizes are second to none and worth the pounds!!

Any questions please ask.....

Track pics on red rc look superb!! wish i could be there. hope you get a good entry for this it looks ace

Can multiple people enter on the same email?

If this event is going to be as big as it sounds I doubt the places will last long, there should be 4 of us trying to get a place but I'm the only one that will be at a computer when entry is opened. I don't want to be the only one with a place.

Just to clarify when booking in, please send the follwing details to the entry email

Name
Ability
Crystals
PT Number

Yes muliple entries can be accepted in one email.

I can't wait for the "BBQ in a large marquee" a least you won't have to worry about a smoke machine!

All part of cost saving!!

Does Silverstone RCMCC have a website?

Not currently, but we have a section on here, where most information can be found.


Paul

It's a control tyre front and back for both classes

and if its wet?

Then we will all slide around together I guess, to be honest, by the look of things with their new astro I would imagine that Schuey Greens would be fine in the wet anyhow.....

To keep things easy for this event we decided on one tyre, so if it is wet as Darren said we will all slide round together....

DMS Racing will be available all weekend with spares and tyres, so lets hope it stays dry...

4 of us will be up for it ;)

Please note: We have had an offer from someone with regard the Controlled tyre's. This late offer has come in and we will release an official list of events by May 30th.

Drivers will still receive a full free set in there entry bag..

Regards

will you need brca because i dident aply for mine yet

No you won't need a BRCA licence... But it is always advised to get one as it gives you insurance etc when competing at events.
