www.westmoor.org.uk. the prices for this hall seem ok. however i dont know if they will entertain rc toy cars even; just a place i found searching for poss... venues in the future. £32.50 for 3 hr hire of sports hall. storage? dont know. i know that the north east is desparate for venues to race our toy cars though.
