One of my favorite tracks looks like it just got better

Top job guys:thumbsup:

[Wacker 2]

Hi guys... awesome looking track... I've never raced there before but am thinking of joining you all for the full series.

Few questions:

Can I turn up and pay on the day or do I 'need' to pre-book. I only ask as I won't know if I can definitely make it until Saturday night.

Also, will there be a shop on site selling tyres???

I drive for Serpent UK and have just taken delivery of my Serpent Spyder 2wd kit and would be great to race it for the first time this weekend.

Cheers,
Jon Seals

Hi Jon

Just show up in the morning is fine.

Not sure on the shop but I don't think there will be one there for at least this meeting.

Cheers

Bit of a wet start to say the least!

Big thanks to everyone that pulled together to help clear the track.

Turned out to be a bright sunny day in the end, with some really close racing on the new extended track.

See you all for the next round on the 17th November :thumbsup:
