Default Track Days Around Yorkshire

I am just getting started in 2wd buggys, after coming from a background of 1/10th touring cars.

i have just about finished and kitted up a dex210 but i am not looking for tracks nearby to practice and race, below is a list of tracks i have managed to research but can someone recommend any more and also put the days they are open.

i live in doncaster (DN11 0QU)done mind travelling around 1 hour max

Robin Hood Raceway (wednesday Practice)
Deerdale (unsure on days its open)
A1 Racing Grantham (tuesdays)
York Track (Saturdays i beleive?)
Worksop (indoors in winter unsure on days)

i assume most of the above are astro

RHR is astro. Racing on wed evenings from around 5:30. Usually a low turnout, so it's open practice.

Deerdale - no idea. I thought this was an 1/8th track?

A1 - has a club section on here. Looks good

York - Indoors on sat evenings. Wood floor with primafelt carpet over mat based jumps. Doors open 5:45 and close around 11. Racing resumes after a summer break on sept 7th.

Worksop - Indoors on cork floor. As far as I'm aware they just run the big winter series and players meetings.

HTH

Deerdale is a 1/8th nitro track not very good for 10th electric

appreciate all your input on this, just building my buggy up as we speak, and trust me just to start in the winter when most are indoors.

is there any more tracks about?

I'm in the same boat. Looking at doing 10th buggy in the same areas as you but need to make sure there's somewhere decent to go.
RHR looks brilliant. I know they have practice on Wednesdays but I'm not sure how long that will be taking place with the dark nights approaching.
Not sure if it has floodlights.
Be great if they have regular practice days the odd Saturday/Sunday throughout winter.
