Robin Hood dirt track - let them know!

[jimmy]

James Helliwell from the Robin Hood Raceway facility - one of the UK's top all-weather astroturf tracks is looking at the feasability of creating a covered and therefore all-weather DIRT TRACK to sit alongside the current track.

If you'd like to see an awesome dirt track in the UK - then RHR need your input and help. Just show your interest at the following link to register your interest and help get the project approved.



Original post:
If an covered dirt track was constructed at Robin Hood Raceway, Nottinghamshire would you use it?

If so, please will you sign the online petition in the link below.

It would be very helpful to us if you could so we can show there is a demand to the relevant parties and hopefully we can bring you a great new facility.
Many Thanks.

Years ago I helped to run Harwood Hall Buggy Club in Essex. This club used an Equestrian warmup arena, basically a dirt/clay/horse manure surface (dont laugh, it was actually a really good surface once rolled flat) and rope to mark a track out each week. Best bit, it was covered. All year around racing, no matter the weather (admitidly f^&king freezing of a winter time).

The idea I think would be a great one, definately I feel it wuld bring more racers....whats better than being able to race, even if its pouring with rain ??

Good luck Robin Hood Raceway !

Good luck James!

RHR is a brilliant venue, and an indoor dirt venue would be such a huge boost for our hobby

Do the relevant parties realise how having a facility like this, enables children/kids/big-kids to have a real interest and remain healthy, giving them social confidence and a start to learning about mechanical and electrical items whilst being fun and enjoyable - beyond playing games on the Xbox/Playstation which in contrast is unsociable, unproductive and unhealthy - or worse still having no interests and becoming a neighbourhood nuisance and another crime statistic.

I signed the original one, I take it that is all that is required.

+1 for what Chris said!

[Dhami1]

YES YES YES!!! Most definitely

The indoors track sounds like a brilliant idea!

Think i came there once...long long time ago,i can remember the poo. The floor was quite dry and loose if I am thinking of the right place.

As for this thred, good luck, I would dream of building a good indoor, if you have a farm shed/building you stand a chance, and farm buildings are not that costly to build, normaly the shell is cheep, it's the renforced concreat floor that costs mega money...but hey you won't be needing that.If it came true I would come that way for sure, but not every month as it's a bit of a drive, but if it yatabi arena(spelling) in the uk I will build my new house next to it

Good luck
