Keep it going and the future of 1/10th could be secured for a long time to come!
The secret is - there's no secrecy! We're a very open club - there's always tons of help and advice on offer, No-one shies away from lending experience or even spare parts come to that.

As we race in a relatively small hall indoors we only race Stock class - which keeps running costs down due to less wear and tear and crash damage as the speeds are lower. Also it means the beginners aren't so intimidated as they may be watching full blown modifieds going round a track thinking "I could never handle that".

The emphasis at FORCC is very much on a fun evening out - more a social evening than a race night - but that's not to say it's not competitive. I'm sure other regular racers could post on here why they keep coming back for more - but I think the numbers speak for themselves that we've got a successful format.
