At the moment we charge £4. last sunday we managed to get 5 rounds and a final in.

The next race meet is on Sunday 16th aug, your more than welcome to come along and there's plenty of us that will be more than willing to help you out and give you some pointers.

we will be there at about 1 to set the track up, aim to start racing at 2. i think the guys finished at about 5/6ish but it all depends on how many people turn up. There was about 12 people racing last weekend but as we have just started the club numbers will be low until the word gets about. hopefully anyway!! lol

after packing up last meeting we was done for about 7.30pm
a few of us was setting up at about 12ish but we are asking most to turn up at 1pm
at the moment we are running 2 rounds with 5 min break after round 2 before round 1 starts but as more people come this will change.

Just a quick reminder, we are racing this Sunday. If you would like to come down to race or just to have a look you are more than welcome. Tracking building will start at about 1 with racing starting at about 2.

Heavy normally equals stable so thats a good thing. Won't make you the fastest thing around the track, but that new Mamba of yours should propel your Bandit as fast as it can handle even with the lead.

You'll be fine!

Now get out there and race with any more faffing! Jeez, you're like a woman......

Im not sure what pinion u should use with a bandit, bring all of them along and have a bit of trial an error. the track will be open for a bit of practice before racing starts so u can have a bit of a play around.

Like Si Coe said, heavier the car the more stable it will feel over bumps. Maybe u should ask Si Coe to come down and be your pit bitch for the day!! lol
