Does that include 10th scale as well as i wouldn't mind having a pop down. If not to race then just to have a look at the track as i have never been down before.

Good to see some of you there today what did you think of the track? as the warmer weather comes it might be possible to host a few 1/10 races if your intrested.

Loved it, was rather impressed at how 1/10th friendly it was, few parts are a little rough for them but not impossible, would love to race properly with 'proper' jumps like them.

What time is it on until - just for those who can't make it earlier

Also it states £7 non members on the website, unsure which one is correct.

Yeah i am going down with Josh, will be having a bash with my 2wd to see how it goes. Was going to take my Pred but i haven't had the money to get it fixed yet. Lets hope that it is like it has been all week, nice and sunny.

Have gotten back from open practise today and all i can say is WOW. The track is amazing it is one of the best i have seen in a long time. Slightly better suited to 4wd cars than to 2wd , but i had a go of Josh's while i was there and the track itself has a few bumps here and there but the rest of it is so thought out. All of the jumps take a fair amount of skill to complete succsesfully, but once you do it doesn't half look good. All i cna say is a Job well done to those who made it and who help keep everything in order.

Looking at the pictures, the track looks really good! I think you should put in for a N.E regional next year! [even though it's not built for 1/10th electric]
