Why dont you fetch some forms down to jarrow next week and sign up some members...

Racing for non members is infact a tenner, members its either 7 or 8 pounds but again i need to check to be 100% sure. I know its more than the £4 a club night at jarrow costs but in the grand scale of things the extra couple of quid is neither here or there in my opinion. At the end of the day we have hundreds or thousands of pounds worth of gear so an extra 3 or 4 quid for a full race day doesnt make a lot of difference. There will be plenty of racing being done on a day as to make the runtime fair against the 8th scale drivers there is no reason why there shouldnt be 3 leg finals for the 10th buggies.
About twenty of us have been up there all day today working on the track, the astro has been lifted and cut so all the joints are flat with no bumpy overlaps and the ground has been smoothed out underneath so the sections we worked on are now 10th ready. I would guess another 2 or 3 work days will see the same done to the rest of the track which will make the track as smooth as any of road track can be. I think Glenn took some pictures when he was up today so im sure he can post them when he gets a minute. Im looking forward to it all being finished, pity ill be away at the nationals for most of the summer so wont get to race there much !!
