We're having our first work party on Saturday 7th April (thats this weekend :woot:)

We need to clear the site of any plant stuff, tree branches over hanging the track area and general plant life etc etc ... and access the site to see what we're going to do with it.

If anyone wants to come a long to help or just to have a look then you're more than welcome, we'll be there from early morning ....

This is how the track area looked a while back, table top and bank at the back there, needs a bit more of a clean up now but shows the potential, what's not clear from the pic is the bank at the back is HUGE !!! that's a 6ft fence on the right :thumbsup:

Looks like it'll be a busy day...

Tasks to do as follows:

1) Build Rostrum...Mr Speedy heading up this 'little' job.

2) Continue to rake/grade/clear the track area. It's still quite stony at the mo, but we made good progress with this after the first work day so hope to make more good progress with this as well.

3) Start thinking about track layout for first meeting :thumbsup:

As Si said, everyone welcome!!!

If everyone can bring along some tyres with them would be cool, we need quite a few and most garages don't mind you helping yourselves :thumbsup:

So...just a thought...for the hardcore WORM crew...racing at Yatton is now off on Sunday, so I'm wondering about doing a 2 day effort on the track instead...

Anyone else game?

Hi Rob, yeah we had a really good day, rostrum got built, and the rest of the track was smoothed off hopefully ready for some astro this weekend. I've just heard that we have had 10 tonnes of hardcore delivered so we'll have that to play with too :woot:

If you'll well enough, we will be there again on Saturday from around 10.00 onwards :thumbsup:

Another week..another work party!

Once again we will be at the track preparing things for the first race next week

So if your free anytime between 10am and about 5pm Saturday 28th come along and join us!

We have the rostrum to finish off, 10 ton of earth to turn into a nice racing feature and fingers crossed some astro to lay as well. Bring spades, rakes, wheel barrows...anything you think might be useful basically as we don't have any tools of our own at the track!

Everyone and anyone welcome!

See you there :thumbsup:
