Can you confirm to the following as I would really like to come down and try your club out;
1) doors open and kicking out times for both Friday and Sunday meetings
2) how often do you run friday & sunday meetings? Is there a calendar somwhere?
3) what tires do I need and how fresh should they be?
4) do you separate 2wd & 4wd in 1/10th or is it all mixed together? If separated which is the more popular class?
5) if I was coming straight from work is there anywhere close to grab some food?
6) what is the race fee and how does membership work at your club?
Really pleased to have the possibility of another indoor buggy club ... shame they are all at least 100 mile round trip from me (Cheltenham)

My apologies for the late reply, been a busy few days. I'll try to answer all your questions in the order you asked them.......
- Friday meetings are every week and gates open at 6:30pm and we finish around 11pm. Sundays are not so regular and you will need to keep an eye on the website (www.yrcc.co.uk) for when we are racing. Gates open at 8:30am and we finish around 3pm depending on the numbers.
- See above and the website (www.yrcc.co.uk)
- Schumacher yellow minipins, minispikes or BB white minispikes on the rear and front for 4wd and the same rear but staggered ribs for the front on 2wd. The grip is good so part worn work fine.
- Depends on the numbers. At the moment we are low in 4wd so we are tending to put everyone in together. If this changes then we would look to split them up.
- There is a good choice of take-aways in Yatton, a fish & chip shop, Indian, Chinese and there is a Co-Op as well all under 5 minutes away from the track.
- Race fees are £5 fro Friday evenings as we only run 3 heats and finals and £10 on a Sunday (4 heats and finals). The £10 will change in the future but we are trying to build club funds so that we can improve the track and facilities. The club is BRCA affiliated but we do not have any membership scheme in place at the moment.
I hope that helps but please just ask if you need any further information.
