Well just to confirm it's not a mail order bride.

It is the Northern Off Road Arena

Here's a picture

(Track will be top left corner of field)

It is centrally located in Scotland, so far here is what has been organised:
Land sourced
Astro turf sourced
Track markers sourced
AMB, BBK , speakers etc

In planning
Sharp sand - anyone with contacts £20 per tonne
1st Container - awaiting price
2nd container - trying to source
Metal to build rostrum frame/steps - awaiting feedback
Insurance - awaiting quote
tent pegs for holding track down - got prices
toilets - being investigated

Require
Fencing - both farm (120 meter) type and 6 foot (20 meter)
track perimeter fencing
Type 1 for car park £10 per tonne
JCB
Mini digger
Lorry with hiab to move astro and containers
Lots of volunteers
A committee to run the club - step forward those that are interested
members - already have a list of those that said they would commit, always need more
racers - start putting the word about, 1/10th electric 2wd & 4wd, nitro 2wd&4wd, truggies, bikes
inner tubes to hold track down
Anyone think of anything I've missed

Vision
To build this over the winter and be using regular in 2011
