Default New Outdoor Storage

Well, the new storage container was delivered today and is now in place at the Rugby Club, ready for the new outdoor off-road season which begins on Friday 13th May. It's the same size as the existing container which we shared with the Rugby Club last year but the new one is in better condition and is for our sole use, so we can store & access all of our off-road equipment easily without having to clamber over scrum machines and corner posts! This also means that we can at last get the MROD out of the shed at the school!

So forget about fake plastic grass venues, come and race on the real thing, with access to a proper bar too! You can even have a pizza delivered to the track if you like (the moped delivery guy knows where we are now after Martin's multiple orders last season!).

I'm not sure about you guys but personally I always prefer the real thing to fake plastic alternatives...

Excellent - does then venue still include live music. I quite enjoyed last years hit singles such as "I bought my love on ebay" and the "chicken tikka blues" - thought Martin was going to piss his pants when that woman started "singing" those songs. Yeeeehaaaa

How does one go about buying a shipping container?
Not that I want one but it just came to mind as a weird thing.

I think this should be a weekly thing, maybe we can get the chip shop to deliver to. We could have a takeaway pre booking form on the website

yes all that grass cutting pulling out track markers and putting out the jumps must be a pain in the arse and dont forget the fence that needs putting up it all takes time and after two hours of racing it all needs putting back ps you deserve a pizza and pint after ALL THAT WORK

I reckon you just can't set your car up for different track surfaces Simon...

I class it as my weekly exercises, keeps my knees working

but i do enjoy the pint or 2 afterwards

And i do like astro tracks its a more consistent track to drive on provided you stick to the racing line otherwise you get grit in your gears.
