Welcome back
Currently we are still racing outdoors at Spenborough Sports centre on an Astro track so are less affected by weather.
Tco2c cars will be fine and don't worry about driving standards. We cover all abilities and I'm pretty sure that when my 6yr old girls come and race, they aren't as quick as other drivers, but we all have to start somewhere!
Over winter we race indoors, usually at Whitcliffe Mount Centre, although there are discussions about the future for indoor as Whitcliffe has been identified by Kirklees for closure.
We are a friendly club with a range of abilities and plenty of helpful folks - I only returned last year after a lay off since 1985. All you will really need are your cars, batteries and charger and for outdoors a battery for charging from. Indoors we have 240v.
Racing is most Sundays, usually from ~11ish to ~4ish. Come down and have a wander and a chat. By all means bring the cars as there is usually time between rounds etc for a little practice.
Re: info sources. Bit disjointed at moment. Website is probably last choice, with oople and fb being the main places that info is posted for start times, meetings etc.
Hope that helps, and I'm happy to assist down at the club if you want to chat (although I'm away this week - family commitments!!).
Enjoy!!
