I have sent an email to the Tiverton club highlighting this post.

I love the look of your track and if we don't end up with a swords championship i would love to come and race anyway.

The last 1/10 swords i raced in was in 1989.

Look forward to racing in Cornwall again.

Im new to the scene in the southwest and was searching for a championship like this everywhere.
I think its a great idea!!!!!!
Ive had a look on your website Simon and it looks like you have a really good track defo be down even if we cant get the SWORDS going.

Roll on the Summer :thumbsup:

If the new off road track gets built at Mendip club in W-S-M there might be another club interested in getting involved :thumbsup:

Thanks for the replys

Would be great to see if we could start something back up, seeing there's nothing down in the south west for buggy's
theres always be something mentioned about SWORDS but nothing ever done. lots of intrest from are club drivers.

I sent an email to your club contact details [email protected] if you reply we can have a chat.

I raced in the SWORDS in 1988 and 1989 then i moved to national circuit racing. Now i'm back where i started. It would be great to race in the southwest again because the travelling gets to be a drag.

I have a video from the Weston super Mare SWORDS from August 1988. In which i finished 3rd.
I was driving a SWB Optima Mid. Other cars racing were:
Schumacher CAT XLS
PB Maxima
PB Mini Mustang
Optima Turbo
And newly released LWB Optima Mid and Yokomo Super Dogfighter.

If i can get some help to do it i will post it on youtube.

Would be fanatstic to see this championship return...

hi this sounds like a great idea i would love to come and race it would be nice to race againt other clubs in the southwest

yeah!! if this happens i'll drive from the midlands just to race!!! and tiverton,BRING BACK THE CLAY INDOOR RACING!!!

I doubt that will happen again and it's a shame, we only have the grass / astro track for offroad and I think the arena was resurfaced for the horses as we would not be using it anymore.

But I would love to have the swords here, I've been reading about there is a new club forming in Gillingham, would this be in the south west? Or south?

If they dont start up the swords again how about a team (each club) meeting at all the track's or something along those lines,

There is quite alot of interest from our club,West Cornwall Radio Controlled Car club

there must be able to arrange something like the swords again, or some sort of series? coz there is nothing running in the south west, but there is in other regions

anyone got any ideas?

SWORDS
 

How about organising a meeting between all the clubs at a central venue? By the sounds of it there is a few clubs interested and i am sure we can organise something between us all

Come on Guys and Girls lets get 1/10 Buggy Racing back alive in Cornwall,Devon and Somerset

I have very good memories of SWORDS Events and Yeovil Indoors from back in the 90's and i want to relive those memories and bring the SWORDS back to life

If anybody wants to speak to me regarding organising a meeting please ring me on 07528 818100

Hi all i have recently been in contact with Tiverton (Jacquie Rowcliffe) and it is looking very very promising that West Cornwall Radio Controlled Car Club will be holding an event for 2wd 1/10 buggies at our track at Barriper nr Camborne Cornwall in 2011 :thumbsup::thumbsup::thumbsup:


Will keep you updated and we will be sending out Entry forms asap if all goes well

Keep checking this post and also

Thats Great News.

Can't wait. :thumbsup:

We need to make sure that it doesn't clash with a round of the BRCA Championship otherwise we won't get the best drivers attending.

Does anyone know how many rounds will count towards the F licence grades?

Make it the end of July!!!!!!

Wasnt SWORDS held in the South Coast????

From my poor memory back in 1988/89 the Swords (South West Off Road Drivers Series) raced at some of these tracks:

Weston Super Mare
Exeter
Feniton (Nr Honiton)
Taunton
St Austell
Hale
Plymouth
Kingskerswell
Bournemouth
Yeovil
I apologise if i have missed any tracks out.

is it about time the South West has a thread in the regionals section?

Are all those clubs dead now?

Might have been the Bournemouth event...

not sure how many still going or running buggies

BLO*DY HE*L this does bring back memories i started SWORDS in 1990 til 1996 racing with the likes of:

Kevin Waite
Paul Norris
Barry Norris
Paul Alway
James Smith
James Lane
Cookie

and also Yeovil Indoor Series in the Dance Hall,Cracking day out!!!!

Yes your right there should be a thread for the South West :thumbsup:
