No you don't have to join - you get 3 race meets before you need to join a BRCA affiliated club (doesn't have to be ours, but clearly we'd prefer it was!).

I think was started at 7 last time, but can't really remember. Bring a table, chair and an extension lead for power.

Alright howie get yourself down Friday night and race all the timing gear is supplied by the club the track is nice and simple which should be spot on for you being new to racing. I won't be there because I'm on 2 till 10 shift this week but there will be plent of lads there to help you and give you good sound advice. Don't feel put off by thinking everyone at the club is fast racers this is not the case si coe has been doing this years and you will most proberbly beat him first time out.

Default Also a newbie

Hi, some of you may have seen me hanging around Goshen with my lad and my old Kyosho Optima Mid. The Mid is all ready now for racing so will come along tomorrow night with it to get me back in the swing of racing, after 18 years away from it. Wish me luck!!!

Had a thoroughly fantastic time last night. Some good racing out there. Glad the 18 year old Mid stood up ok, only some minor wear to the tyres. Will definitely be there next week!!!

Is there a plan to repeat the Friday night racing? If so, when? Sunday mornings is often difficult to get out of the house with 3 young children to entertain!!!

Yes we plan to continue, but in future we will be moving to a different hall in the same building. Its bigger, but has a rather slippery floor so we are just sorting out the carpet and how we'll set it up. So no dates just yet, but watch this space.
