Where to race in Shropshire?

[ramdrive]

I have recently moved to Telford and have decided to get back into racing after 15 years :woot: I have a ZX-5 but nowhere to go!

Any recommendations greatly received!

We have an off road club in oswestry

The Ludlow club race outdoors on a grass track on Tuesday nights in the summer, and indoors in the winter.
I'm not sure when they will be racing outdoors again, but I expect it to be in the next few weeks.

Hereford club run indoor off-road on Friday nights, in Leominster.

Telford Hot Trax race indoors every Wednesday night, at Madeley Court Centre/School.

Thanks for the responses:thumbsup:

I will check out Telford Hot Trax, soon!

I am also looking to promote my renewable energy company, Electric RC fits the bill well + its my hobby! so will chuck some funds over to my local RC club for a few banners!

Cheers

Heads up for Telford Hot Trax visit - Get your ZX-5 fitted out with some Shumacher Yellow Mini Spikes - This is the choice of ZX-5 racers there. Starts around 7:15... Any questions regarding THT, PM me.. I'll try to help :thumbsup:

What sort of time do you normally finish? And how many runs do you get in a night?

[Dazzler]

Phil,

It's around 10:00 finish, a bit late for some, but unfortunately we are unable to get the facility any earlier (It's been the same for many years). We have a bit of free practice whilst booking in, (time dependant on help putting out track). We then run three qualifying heats and a round of finals. Current average attendance is 18 drivers. See you there Wednesday ? :woot:

Is this at the small golf place on the left, just after you go over the A49?

Might be interested in popping over one of the weeks. :thumbsup:
