Details for NERCR 2008 Outdoor regional Weekender

Saturday 24th May (4WD) and Sunday 25th May (2WD) (Bank holiday weekend at the end of May).

Camping available free of charge on Friday and Saturday nights, on South Shields Sea Front, in a locked park (NERCR will have the keys).

We have sole use of the Bents Park for the weekend.

Toilet facilities open 24hours within the park, for our use only.
Burger van will be attending all day Saturday and all day Sunday.
BBQs are allowed, we only ask that you do not damage the grass in anyway, and that all litter is removed from the site as usual.

Recreational park is 50 metres away, with pedalloes, kids mini train, Pub is 75 metres away, does great food. Fairground is 75 metres away, with bowling alley etc. The beach is 100 metres away. Restaurants are 150 metres away. And there's plenty room for that pre finals game of football.

This event has been arranged with South Tyneside council, and Northumbria Police, and is going to be a great event to push for a permanent track, if enough racers are interested.

Heres a MAP and DIRECTIONS to the venue. http://www.nercr.net/temp/CCCup_7_7_07.pdf

Bents park is a good venue its where they held the catherine cookson classic last year, i think for the regional though there may be a bigger track which is always good!!

Lee,

with us having sole use of the park on the regional weekend, we can use as much space as we want for the track.

We were limited by what the council gave us last summer, with there being lots of other stuff going on in the park.

So yes, we can have a big track, and hopefully make it as varied as we can.

They are right I used the academy V2, but it stopped speedo I think. I didn't use the Procat, to precious. Used bit from it though. The B4 went ok. Bought an X6 today so it will be sacrificed for bits. Two fun days, but I got bont.Not sure if it was the sun or the wind.
