I know it's an old thread but brilliant to see some photos of where I used to race with James BITD!
Started off in 1986 at Brinsworth behind the Waverley pub, it used to be at the 3 Magpies before this but was just before my time. The club then found itself homeless, and moved around a lot - from memory:
Waverley (outdoor grass)
Burngreave Vestry Hall (indoor carpet)
Rowlinson School (indoor carpet / outdoor grass)
Rotherham town centre - some hall I forget (indoor carpet)
Rawmarsh Leisure Centre (outdoor grass / indoor carpet)
There was also a couple of one-off events around Sheffield I went to - some kind of fair / rally at Barlborough Hall (outdoor grass), and a Tamiya Challenge qualifier at the Octagon Centre in Sheffield (outdoor block paving!).
Started off with a Tamiya Frog I bought 2nd hand for £80, then went on to a modified Hotshot, Optima, gold pan RC10 and finally a PB Mini Mustang before I sold the lot for beer money when I was 18.
Wish I'd took more photos!
