The factsheet for ARC states there's no camping available.

So I'm wondering what the long distance entrants are planning to do, as hotel prices are pretty steep in the area :thumbdown:

I've a 250 mile, 4 hour drive from N. Wales so travelling down and back on the Sunday isn't an option. Plus I could do with a practice session to set the truck back to astro again (even though practice is only 3 hours long and costs £2.50...)

Best option may be if there's a decent campsite nearby that the overnight racers could all use. Can any locals recommend anything??

Cheers

Cheers Chris.

I had spotted that but I was a bit concerned that the website prices were for 2009! :confused:

Might give them a ring and see what's what

I am going to miss this one as I have the same problem and we are away nearly every weekend.

Divorce is on the cards if I did it!

Shame as it will be the first one missed.

Am sorry for no camping but is only because with have planning regs :thumbdown: to meet in our first year. This condition will be corrected for 2014.

Chris, Mr Spyro is spot on with the camp site thou. Is literally 2 mile away.:thumbsup:

Big thank you to the guys at ARC Raceway we had a great weekend, the track was something very different to most of the flat tracks we normally race on, the level changes and banked corners were great. Just a shame the numbers were down ah ho, qualified 5th and 3rd in the A can't be bad
Can't wait to go back later in the year.

I think you need a Google+ account to view them.

... so here's a select few I have downloaded and re-uploaded to the UKSC website:
