Howie reports the stone situation is out of hand on the track so if its ok with dave we plan to get there An hour early and give it a damn good raking and fill in any holes.
If anyone would like to help bring a rake!.
Cheers
Ps, i intend to buy some pva mix and spray a test section to attempt to seal the dirt. If anyone has an industrial garden sprayer of some sort it would help the endevaour immensely.

What we really need to do is hire a Stone Burier

Nope, can be done, but if you take the stones out of that soil there is nothing left to hold it together the weather and wind just blows the track away!:woot: we're on sandy loam up there, no sign of clay, thus it drains well but is sadly one of the worst for dirt tracks, thus the reason the grip is always low unless its damp the surface is constantly breaking up even if we don't race on it the weather is always at it, thats why we had to astro the take off on the big jump if not it just deteriorated even if we weren't using it
