[Jonesy]

As per the title, Oswestry will be racing outdoors as of this Thursday (25th March). There will be someone at the club from around 6:15 so feel free to pop down for a fun relaxed evening of racing! It'll be good to be back outside!! :thumbsup:

Any questions then please give me a shout

It'll be good to be back outside!! :thumbsup:

Some have stayed outside all winter, supporting their local clubs :blush: Not me, you realise, I stayed nice and warm(ish) in the timekeepers hut :thumbsup:

[DaveG28]

Sounds like ideal practice Jonesy, may come down the next few weeks, will struggle to get there before 7 though, is that ok?

[IceMike]

yer thats fine racing doesnt start till around half 7 ish. we just try to be down early to give ppl time to do some practice and to try a few things on the cars

[Jamie B4]

Good news - means outdoor season is nearly upon us again - proper racing Yeh!!

[Jonesy]

Just to let you know that it is highly unlikely that we will be running on the outdoor track this Thursday due to the weather.

The indoor track is set-up still and we will be running one way or the other

[Rob_B]

Anyone got a postcode for the track cant seem to find it? Also is it deffo on tomorrow? Thanks

[Jonesy]

Hi Rob,

Please see http://www.oswestryrcc.com/Directions.htm#Directions

Note that the venue does not have a postcode but the multimap link from the website will get you there

Racing is one tomorrow night, the only difference being if it's heavy rain in which case the track will be open but there may not be a meeting

[Big G]

put "52.871902,-3.035166" into google maps. it will pin point the track
