Default Race Meeting - 6 April

Just a little reminder to the oople'ets that we are holding an open race meeting this Sunday at the track. The format is yet to be decided but will follow the basic principle of our winter series.

Gates open 8.00am
Practice 8.30am
First race 10.00am

Our winter series meetings were generally finished by 4.00pm but if anyone wants to stay on afterwards, they are more than welcome.

Recent improvements have been made to the rear of the rostrum and the fencing down the sides of the jumps has nearly been completed.

Everyone is welcome, 2WD and 4WD classes. Maybe longer or multiple finals to get more track time.

Any questions? Just ask!

This Saturday is a big curb painting day!!!! Anyone that come come along and help would be greatly appreciated, Alf and Nath Higgins are coming to give a hand as well, so we really need people to get the curbs ready to paint. Getting these painted will make a huge visual difference!!!!!!!!!!
See you all there

And I will of course be there Sunday with both of my sweet new Atomic Carbon cars!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Default A big thanks

Many many thanks to all the guys that turned up today, especially the decorating crew - you know who you are. All the kerbs were painted once if not twice (DC correct me if I am wrong) as we made good headway on some of the fencing, strimming and the boarding of the rostrum.

Lets hope we have some luck with the weather tomorrow and hope to see the regulars and some new faces trackside.

why was i the only one to take my car round lol it wasnt even that deep, it got stuck like all the time and even the 'great' Christopher Brooke couldnt do a full lap. I couldnt do a full lap but i was concussed thanks to steve's patio door. It would have been great fun to have a drift class like martin said.

Driving that car in the snow was 1 of the funniest and hardest things i have done with a rc car But the funniest thing i have seen in my life was when lawerence (i have deliberately spelt it wrong just to pee him off) walked staright into my glass patio door

Yes there will be a work party this weekend although I cannot make Saturday and have to go to the rallycross National at Ware on Sunday.

I believe that Steve Andrews will be down to work on the fencing whilst there is still plenty of woodwork/painting on the rostrum.
