Its in a small village called Biggin between Sherburn and Cawood.

The track is only open on offical race day as we only have permission for 12 events per year at the moment.

truggy is basically a buggy with longer wishbones and a truck type shell,generally easier to drive,a little bit more stable.

a 1/8th buggy is rallycross.

A 10th will be next to useless on an 8th track, even a very smooth 8th track, the jumps will be massive, imo far too big for a 10th. Thats not to say you cant run a 10th on a rallyx track i just definately wouldnt recommend it.

hi all booking in is ok on the day but will make it easyer for me if you prebook as there will be loads of PT numbers etc to put in.

The track is almost finished been up tonite to drop some astro off for our quad section.

There will be some cold sandwiches from Sandwich King and the usual cans of pop available on the day.

If anyone needs any info give me a ring on 0113 2603330

Thanks
Bally
