Default New off road venue in west yorkshire?
Hi guys.
A few of us are looking in to starting an outdoor off road 10th electric track in Keighley west yorkshire. We have been offered a nice piece of land that we can do preity much what ever we want with. The area is large enough for a nice sized track with plenty of pitting space. Im posting this to see how much interest we have from racers in this area. Our local club 10electric has round 10 members that have shown an interest in racing. We require people to help set this up and help run it. If you are interested please post or send me a pm. If we can get enough people interested we will go for it!

Hello, I live in Skipton and am looking to come back to 1/10 off road after a long time off. Used to go to Harrogate club but nothing local enough now so a club in Keighley would be ideal. I go back to something called the craven model car club which was a good club in the 80's with lots of members. Let me know at what stage the planning is and I might have to open my wallet and spend some cash on a new car then turn up and destroy it. Double cost as 11 year old son is wanting to race too. Im an electrician if my skills would help with any setting up then please ask. Cheers Trevpotter
