Hi guys I'm new on here.
I've recently entered the world of 1/10 buggy and I'm looking for some places that I maybe able to go midweek to get some practice in? I'm living in south wales not far from Cardiff at the moment but could travel up to an hour after work. Let me know if anyone knows of anywhere??
Thanks in advance!!!

Mendip, Swindon and Brookthorpe (Gloucester) are all about an hour away. Mendip you can use at any time with membership or offers a day pass. With the others, best checking their Facebook pages which are more active than the forums here
Mendip is probably the easiest option if you are going in the week. Track pass or membership will gain you access to the site.

Follow the links on their website and you can work out what the best option for you is.
They run occasional race meetings on a Wednesday evening as well. Those are a bit more lighthearted, but give you a chance to race with other people.
Plus....if you are quick, you will be able to still race on the oOple track layout from last weekend! :thumbsup:
Caldicot races buggies indoors on friday nights and that's closest to you.
Always a good turnout, most weeks we get around 30-40 drivers at clubnights running 2wd, 4wd and the odd micro. All standards from ex-F1's to complete beginners.
Normally get a good 10-15 minutes open practice, 4-5 heats and a final.
Cheap too :thumbsup:
