Default HALIFAX TRACK

Hi all i have noticed that on some of the TC tracks for electric some really nice events likes tamiya eurocup,carpet wars,slcc, ect but why is halifax always the odd one out. Why is this i dont know i havnt got anything against the track its just i think they should get more involved in these type of events

I think they focus on IC 10th and 8th scale plus the large scale cars. This is a very big track so electric 10th scale tends to get lost on it, saying that the reedy race a few years ago was quite good sorry did i big up the snouring class

Hi all im on the commitee and the club is not against electric it's more to do with the fact that we like to have atleast 2 free weekends per month for club members to use the track The club looks at all applications made for race meetings and book as many in as possible, as there are very few tracks left which allow fuel powered cars to run due to noise restrictions we try and cater more for these classes so they dont disapear

hi vinny i am an electric racer and i would like to see more events torc schumacher etc, but theres only so many weekends we can put events on our members pay £45 a year to use the track and its really important that we keep a large membership in order for the club to survive, this wont happen if we hold events every weekend.

when it was in the old place they used to run all scales seems that when they moved it all stopped wouldnt it be better for everyone if they run them again or get something running indoors i live up the road from the track if i want to run my buggy it is a trip to york on a saturday night seems a shame as there is a lot of kids that have cars that live near the track
