timing gear, which can be upto £6000.00

and then the main issue, no neighbours for miles around. A local model shop opened one not to long ago, they spent a lot of money developing the site only to have it shut down due to 1 complaint and unfortunately it only takes the 1.

I would welcome a new track in Yorkshire however unless it is indoor i would have to keep my loyalties with MMRX although i would be more than happy to attend everynow and then.

Do you have some land in mind or are you just gauging interest. I would consider approaching a farmer who has an unused barn (most have these days as they contract out their work.) that you could hire and build an indoor dirt track that is fully lit and available to use all year round. If you were to do that i'm sure you would soon gain a lot of new friends.

Best of look with whatever you decide to do, and i look forward to seeing you down at MMRX should the rain ever stop.

i have 10acres at my home and a concrete barn and the next neighbour is quite abit away as i live in middle of nowhere just need to know the basics to get set up and see how it goes have acces to big 360 and mini diggers rollers forklifts
