Track
As per previous years we are running at our new venue in Kendal next to the Ski Club - LA9 7BY. We have been busy running up to this event and now have a permanent rostrum that is on the flat. The track is 100% grass and if we are unfortunate to have some inclement weather make sure you bring suitable footwear as it can get slippery.

Parking
You can all park on the grass next to the track and there is a lot of room for tents and gazebos so make yourself at home, we will have a toilet as usual near the gate and we should have food on site as well. There is a fence surrounding the area that is next to a hard standing car park - if you are caught jumping over this you will be kindly asked to leave the event.

Race control
As you can imagine running race control at a regional is sometimes a thankless task and they can get a hard time, which can slow down proceedings. Therefore, as I will state in the drivers briefing on the day, any issues MUST ONLY come to me and not to race control. I will be pitting right next to race control and will be at hand all day to make sure everything runs smoothly and above all everyone has a good days racing.

Any way enough of that, I Look forward to seeing you all there for a good days enjoyable racing.

Canal Head North.

Look on google maps, its the field at the end of Canal Head North, just past the recycling centre and adjacent to the Ski slope.

Its not difficult to find and the postode given will get you close enough by Sat Nav.

If you head for the Kendal ski slope place theres no way you can miss it

I know I am not the best person to bring this up following 'the great bacon debacle of Southport 2013'

But is there a butty van?

Thanks for this, unfortunately the sat nav in the car always wants a street when we put in the postcode - bit useless really!!

Canal Head North is the street name and its only a small street so you won't be far off. If your navigator can work with coordinates try 54.326907,-2.739061 should put you in the gateway of the field.
