Default North East mid week racing

Guys,

Does any one know the details of the clubs that run off road during the week? e.g. Who are they? Where are they? What time start and finish?

Cheers

The only place that is localish is Longbenton and to be honest its not great. I went through a full set of mini spikes from brand new the other week on my 4 wd
2 wd is fine for tyre wear but the surface is a bit slippy!

Bring back the good old days at Jarrow. Plenty of people there and always a great track. I was at Seaham on Sunday at the first round of the Winter series and there were only 3 cars in 2wd!!
We need a club on a weeknight again but we would struggle for somebody to be there every week and timing gera would be a problem!
Gutted that ive got 2 and a half hours to travel just to race!
Any ideas??

We've been trying to source a list of local clubs, most do run weekends apart from Longbenton, there is Birtley on a Sunday evening if that would be any use? We are trying to get full details of that club but most contact info is well out of date.

If a club was to start I am sure timing gear could be sourced to use if someone knew how to use it, venue would be the hardest thing to source @ suitable cost as we found. Pleased Seaham venue is being supported more than Jarrow was or it'd be struggling to cover the rent. Attendance of the winter series wasn't expected to be amazingly high due to being short notice/something new.

Ive got to say, Midweek evenings would be better for me, and Im sure a few others as if you work all week, the ear bending you get from the Mrs about spending time with family etc instaead of playing with toy cars is unbeleivable. And my mrs is good, I race motorbikes in the summer, it costs £k's and she just lets me get on with it (as its interesting for her to watch)

I dont mind racing on a sunday when theres a competition on. I just cant be bothered racing every week on a sunday as i would rather do somthing else with my day off. 1 in 3 week ends i am trying to come to seaham
