Default Racing on the grass

OK, so the main track is progressing again, but its still a way off being ready and right now we aren't racing. Our members are racing everywhere but at Bury!
So I propose we kick off the summer season on the grass, either this weekend or next. It will be a little ghetto style, maybe even no rostrum, but it will be a laugh and it would be a shame to miss more good weather.
Is this feasible? Who's up for it?

Yes indoor sports halls that smell of sweaty men have done me in
Let's get on the grass as nature intended

I was talking to Rog down at the track yesterday afternoon and the contractors seem to think that they have finished so I asked him if we could race on it on sunday and he didn't say no!

I'd be up for grass racing aswell, it would be great if it was this weekend!

The new track still looks a bit sandy to me, but if Rog is up for it I am. But we'd need a way to get the indoor rostrum to the track, ie a van. And some hefty planking to stand it on so it doesn't sink into the grass.
