Default Today@Broxtowe

I would just like to say thanks and a big well done to all the lads from Broxtowe for laying on todays meeting. I know a lot of time and effort was put into setting it up.

Thought the track was first class, some really good jumps, features etc. And it drove well, a real drivers track.

It was the clubs first attempt at indoors offroad and they did a great job. I know the lads on the commity would be grateful for any feedback from people who attended todays meet, likes and dislikes?

Thought the track was excellent and rewarded careful driving so even those of us with low powered cars / inexperiece / lack of natural talent, could do OK.

Great job by the committee and can't wait for the next round - might even persuade the Tamiya to keep its shocks together!

Cool Nice One!

Congratulations on a well run event today @ Broxtowe club, indoor off road meeting, held at Greasley.
All drivers & spectators seemed to enjoy the day.
As a spectator i really enjoyed it, apart from the start of the A final 4WD, in which my son was wiped out from behind, starting 5th on the grid, going into the hairpin, overtaking by driving over the back of you aint really a valid overtaking move, a little bit of driver etiquette was in order, but never mind.
Looking forward to the next event.

Sorry to hear about the wipe out, in any final drivers should just aim to get the first few corners clean before attempting over taking moves.

Knowing Johno was 6th off, must admit I was nervous being 4th on the Grid.

its allways a gamble at the start of a final and it does take a few laps for all to settle down.
