We would have been keen to run a 10th short course class but had very few requests. I understand that this thread had a few people mentioning a truck class but based on the 100 or so people who contacted me directly off all the forum posts we had to choose 10th buggy 2wd and 4wd, if I can collect a minimum of 10 drivers who want to book in and pay this weekend we will modify the schedule to accodate the class get pm'ing chaps, the offer is there if you want it?

We would ideally want to run all classes, but it has to be based on demand

Let us know

As some eagle eyed drivers may have noticed or heard on the grapevine...we think that we will be adding a control tyre to the list for 10th...Schuey mini spikes...we spoke with several lads after walking the venue this afternoon and the polished area is industrial smooth concrete...looks very clean and nice but spikes may well be needed...or go kamikaze and get those pins on anyway

Our aim is to create a very 'drivable' track but expect a few challenges with dramatic changes in elevation and surface ...it is off-road after all ey folks

Hi folks,

Booking in is currently going very well and we are happy to report that we currently have a really healthy amount of drivers paid up and ready for January 28th. Just as a quick update, we are walking the venue today with our track construction team to attempt to preempt any strange blindspots and positioning of our rostrum etc.

The track designs are completed and we are really looking forward to starting work on this unique track layout...expect to see dramatic elevation changes, a wicked fast straight and mid corner surface changes just to make our meeting interesting.

Any body who still wants to book in plaese contact me directly on [email protected] and request a booking form....more updates to follow shortly
