Default Ledbury MCC Regional 2008

I live about as close as you can get to this track, yet have never visited it. From their website, it looks like they are building a 10th Buggy Astro Track.

If anyone would like to know more about it before next year, I don't mind dropping down to the track to take some pics in the next couple of days. (It is less than 5 minutes away). From the photo's it looks like they have made some sort of bridge section....

Let me know if you want to know more... (I think it is being run by Doug Hogg (of Nitrux fame)).

Mark

I am not sure, from the website, their seems to be two locations within stones throw of each other (club track) and (big meet track).

I think the track will be at the (big meet track), but don't question me on it.

From the brief description, I think it will be astro...

Will get those pics up at the weekend. It will be light then!

Until Gordy or Doug confirm otherwise I believe that there are to be 3 tracks.

Current dirt track (primarily for 1/8th)
Grass "club track" (primarily 1/8th but usable for 1/10th if mowed short)
1/10th specific track .... will become progressively more astro based as time goes on. This area is still "under construction" as far as I can gather.

As I said before, Gordy is your man on this forum .... will try to ring him again tonight to confirm ... better still get him to post up in person!
