Does anyone know the name of the trackside shop at the National?

Cheers

[David Church]

Rc Domination will be at all the Nationals.:thumbsup:

[James]

We will have a marquee again for this years national at the weekend just as we have previous years, we provide this free of charge to anyone who wants to use it - but arrange your table sensibly!
We are also offering mains power, it will be at a charge of £5 for the weekend, just chargers please - plugging in tv's/heaters/etc etc will only trip the power and drive your fellow racers mad! - We have 6 isolators so we will know the culprit! :p

The new cafe is up and running and we will be offering a great selection of proper food including chicken or beef sunday type lunch - even with yorkshire puddings! or Steak pie/peas or even paninis etc, All alongside the usual bacon butties/chips etc, The food will be constantly cooking - ie you will not have to wait for your bacon/sausage etc as can be such a pain when waiting at burger type vans and you're in a rush..Especially for the 8 o'clock bacon sandwich rush in the morning!

To make best use of space we would like caravans around the outside of the field and tents more in the middle, please park sensibly an again around the outside if possible - if you park next to your tent you need not only that space but enough space to drive out so it wastes too much ground! Please park round the outside if possible so we can all get in with plenty of space and keep access routes clear.

Lets hope the weather is kind to us and hope you all have a great weekend, good luck!



Any questions just ask!

[estebandonde]

[James]

Morning all!
Hope to see you all here later, the team have worked tirelessly every day since the cretins burgled and vandalised the place, they were even here at 5 o'clock this morning for the final push to get it all looking the biz for you guys to race at this weekend. Thanks to everyone who has volunteered with the clearup and setup, you're all legends!

Good food will be available from midday today until late tonight so you could have your evening meal at the track if you so wished.

Hope you all have a safe drive, its nice and sunny here so lets hope it lasts!

Brilliant weekend.
Thank you to the people that did all the hard work to get it ready as they are the unseen hero's and they dont get the respect they deserve.
Thanks you.

And another brief take on the weekend with a few pics - click here (http://www.horizonhobby.co.uk/autoonline/d_breaking_news/d_articles/d_articles_pg10.html)

Big Up to the RHR club and organising team - despite all the challenges before the event, you came through with a superb effort - thank you all.

Thanks also to Rob Fox for allowing us (all) to pit in his tent :woot:

And finally, a special mention to Ellis Stafford - over 200 National A-finals and still going strong - you old g1t. Well done matey - I don't know whats more scary - the fact that you've achieved this or the fact that I can still remember before you even chalked up number 1...

Where is the usual fantastic report made jimmy Oople of this race :(

I took a video of the 4wd A final leg 1

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h4cW1YdRRjI

Sorry about the quality it's from my cheap phone and the sound is very poor because of the wind.

I have some of the 2wd finals to follow later. I don't have any other vids of 4wd as phone went flat.:(

Thanks to all the guys at Robin Hood for a great weekend.

:thumbsup:
