Wow! That looks impressive.:thumbsup:
There's a few of us in the north essex/south suffolk area needing a dedicated off road track to race on now our club has gone into hibernation... We run 1/10th electric, is the track suitable for these - its certainly big enough - I'm thinking 7/8 laps in 5 mins:woot: |

Hi Mark
I was talking to a couple of off road racers at the weekend and they said they had tried to find the track but could'nt. As I live fairly local I said I would see if I could find the address. Coming from Gt Wigborough the sat nav took me left into Chuch Road, then into Peldon Road. I went up and down this stretch to the end a couple of times, asked a couple of locals, they said, never heard of it, and gave up. Are there any better directions, is it opposite something? is it in Peldon Road? You could be losing prospective racers. Regards Bob |
Its on the mersea road B1025. The Butterfly lodge farm were the circuit is based was well sign posted when i went there on Saturday. Its an awesome circuit. I just can't wait to get racing there:thumbsup:

sound like a cool track. is it open all week or only on saturdays and sundays? also what if you don't have personal transponder? i don't but i can't afford one at the moment.
also i can't find the facebook page can we have a link? sounds and looks like a cool track i hope you get good turn outs at meetings many thanks lewis |

the access is at butterfly lodge farm on the mersea rd. the peldon rd does go right behind the track. track is located next to the grey wind turbine that sticks above the trees. hope this helps.:) Mark events manager |

the track will be open during the week but no set times arranged as of yet. will let you all know soon once confirmed. no transponder should not be an issue. we can still manully count your laps. thanks Lewis. regards Mark events manager |
how wide is your track out of intrest? its almsot big enough to run a 1/5th on there
|
Hi
I'm gonna go down for a practice with my 8th. I've never run on astro before. Whats the best tyres to run?? |
taken off thread on maxbashing, remember the fronts will need 2 -3 rows trimming off (suggest trying to get hold of some second hand ones)

A few of us went down and raced 1:10 Electric. Very good!!! :thumbsup:
|
Second that. Was great for 10th electric. Easy enough to get round but really hard to get a spot on lap. Loved every minute of the racing today, the track just let you push harder and harder and harder then just as you thought you had the better of the track it bit you in the arse:o
The track really rewarded good, smooth driving and let you carry some massive corner speed if you felt brave enough, as well as some massive air over the jumps:woot: Can't wait to get back on track in a couple of weeks time. |
