RHR DIRT - 10th Off Road Clay in the UK
A new 1/10th off road clay track has been born in the UK - RHR DIRT is based at the same venue as the well respected regular BRCA National venue, RobinHood Raceway. 650 tons of dirt went into the new track which resides right next to the existing all-weather astroturf track - with a brand new 30ft rostrum and new race control. There's a track cover to protect it from the worst the English weather can throw at it - and protect race meetings during intermittent rain showers. The track owners have agreed a control tyre to be used at all meetings on the track, which has been tested extensively, to make racing fair and cost effective - more on this to be announced later. The first BIG race on the new track will be the oOple invernational - yes, it's on DIRT. |

It's clay, James can probably tell you exactly where it's from but I believe he tested a few samples before choosing one.

An enormous amount of credit must go to RICHARD COATES, STEVE PIERCE and BEN JEMISON who have put many, many hours in to the project so far, with assistance from Graham Hunter and Stu Evans, the track and venue aren't finished yet but we have the full RHR team including Graham North, Jim Dixon, Shane Foot and co available now to get the venue finished off into something really special and unique which will officially open in JUNE :thumbsup: |
It looks amazing so pat on the back to all invloved and I would love to do the first event,but without trying to be a stick im the mud(or clay lol)but is there any chance there would any way of getting a wheelchair up on the rostrum? Soz to keep asking ppl this.

If wheelchair or similar access is required please contact me and I will make sure something is arranged. Some of you may remember that the original Blyth site only developed due to Phil Allcroft and family who often uses a wheelchair, we haven't had anyone request it so far but yes we would of course come up with a solution (the ramp angle would be a little steep due to the height of the rostrum, but a cherry picker or similar can be arranged as long as we know :thumbsup: )

:thumbsup:wow awesome work guys the track looks amazing,:thumbsup:
