Just to confirm...

Mendip are now running onroad electric classes at all club races....what used to be offroad race days, is now anything electric on either onroad or offroad tracks!

So essentially it'll run just like Tivvy club days do through the summer...offroad heats then onroad heats.

Ice racing...maybe...if the winter weather they forecast us ever gets here

Our new Mendip RC Raceway website is currently being built, and is being updated all the time at the moment, so apologies if full details haven't made it there yet...we are working on it! In the meantime feel free to post in the WORM Racing section if you want to know anything. We will have Mendip RC Raceway oOple section at some point I hope...as soon as Jimmy can make time to set it up for for us!

That's nearly true....

We actually had a few TC's show up through the day, just not in time for booking in, like yourselves, and mostly just to take a look!

Andy Travis showed up with his wet car...and ran it in the proper wet while our offroad finals were racing in the rain....despite the standing water, his car looked like it was running on velcro...the grip was immense! Why more TC's don't run in the wet I don't know...it looking great! All down to the tyres when we spoke to him.

As we explained when we saw you, we don't know how many TC's are up for racing outdoors in the winter, but we can leave the door open anyway as we're ready to run if anyone shows up!

We have a few of our offroad guys getting ready to take the plunge with TC's and give it a go, so we'll def get some running at some point during the winter months, so we'll see who else is feeling brave enough as the weeks go by.

Come the summer season we hope to pick up a good number, and get things really moving...but would be nice to get a few before then too.
