Add to list definately.
Last raced offroad when southend outdoor track was offroad.
Have been racing touring (boring) cars and micro's the last five years but got back into offroad this summer racing at mid essex offroad club with the boys.Totally got the bug now for offroad boring car sold to fund the buggies.
Racing at epr tommorow (weather permitting) so to get some track time with the big boys.
Regarding southends club they race at barleylands on a tuesday night now big hall have been racing the micros up there, ideal indoor venue for the 10ths aswell.
They race on carpet but we have some ramps that we use for the micros just to get some air time more than adequate for the 10ths aswell.
Anybody with a buggy micro or tenth come along and race more the merrier.
See you up there doors open 6.30 racing starts 7.30 8ish.

idearly 2nd and 4th weekend without clashing with there dates

now time to decide when everyone is free and pick our date

wouldnt have a clue on tires so it will be a bit of a learning curve on that front

hey guys ang girls.

had a look at met check looking good for sunday dry and not too cold. as far as im aware racing starts at 10 a.m but ppl start ariving at the track from around 8.30. and with the shorter days finnish around 3 pm. 3 qualifiers and 2 finals.

as with tyres any can be run and any class can be run. quite looking to this and looks like some good national drivers will make this sundy. see you track side.

if you interseted just a quick mention on here would be cool
