Default Proline Dirt Arena to close

I seem to bring nothing but bad news at the moment.

It is great regreat that I have to inform all our members and your close friends of the Proline Dirt Arena racers and families that the last race at Proline Dirt Arena will be held this Wednesday 2nd June.

This is due to curcumstances beyond our control with the land lord and council tax, but many things have been lernt ready for the new venture.

It will be a sad day to see this venue close but we are all ready working on the next track and fingers crossed it will be a bit special.

the last race meeting will be a good one hope to see you there.

Tony,Phill and Marion Truman

Bummer. Shame as I have been unable to make it lateley due to financial issues. Hope you get something together for the future and hopefully I will be able to make it again. I have been missing Mrs Trueman's coffee. Hopefully she may pop along to Ware this weekend and make my favourite tipple.

This is a real shame for the club.
I do hope that the Truman team can come up with another top class venue.
Was a great venue and well run, I hav full confidence the new venture will only be better.

Such a shame, made it 3 times on Sundays and had massive amounts of track time and thoroughly enjoyed it.
Was made even better by all that ran it and everyone seemed to chip in to help if needed.

Hope a new venue gets sorted and it's even Better.

Feel really sorry for you guys and girls

I know the track was small and tight but you made the best out of the room and it was always a wicked track when i came down when i could.

The few times i came down, i was felt really welcome. I really hope the new arena will be better.

Thanks for all the tea and breakfest

King regards and hope to see you soon, infact will see you on wednesday to racing to say goodbye

I loved watching the RCTV report from this venue, watched it a good few times actually ...

Sorry to hear that councils and landlords have ****ed something cool up again.

I do hope though that as stated in the OP that something will evolve from this.
