Hey guys,
well to start with Stonehaven have set the benchmark with a good event which we all enjoyed & we at Falkirk aim continue on as the championship proceeds into Round 2. As Dom says i'll be keeping an eye on the weather situation on the lead up the round at Falkirk.
I know that proper off-road is outdoors but should it be forecast to be wet then the event will be indoors & i promise that if we do have to run indoors that track will more than make up for it.
I also hope that the weathers good cause i want to run outdoors & we'll be putting a lot of effort into making this a good event. This will be the very first time the grass area has been used so not sure how the grass will hold up but it should be good
Outdoor track
this will be roughly 90% grass & 10% concrete slabs.
2x table top jumps
1x banked corner (about 40-45 degrees)
2x wooden ski jumps
some other features yet to be worked out
The rostrum will be right next to the building & if it's sunny then you will definitely require sunglasses as it'll be facing pretty much eastward.
Pitting
This will be indoor in the hall, plenty of space for everyone.
Tables are available although should the event end up being held indoors then tables will be limited as for the indoor track these get used for construction.
Mains power will be available but please bring your own extension cables as the club only has a couple.
Food
There should be some juice, crisps & sweets available on the day for light snacks but there are shops within a 3minute drive of the hall.
