The Teeside Euro's was a great track, always enjoyed it - Think we had a National there the year before too... The Banked corner was legendary!

I remember in 2wd at the Euro's a distinct shortage of Slim Yellow Mini's being available, Schumacher had not long before released a rounded profile Slim Mini that looked like a 4wd front but they just weren't up to the job as just made the cars too aggressive...

That was my first Euro's and I remember running the Losi XX in 2wd and making the B only to be taken out by Geoffrey Petit as he had crashed then to get off a pipe gave it full beans only to come down the track the wrong way straight into me haha (Didn't laugh at the time)! 4wd i was running the Yokomo MX4 and qualified 6th, only problem was there were no Medial Pro tyres left at all so spent each leg trying to get something that worked but no chance! I was just pleased to be in the A at 16 to be honest.

Aye no mistaking my chubby cheeks and looking pretty shifty for a 12 year old!! Nice to see ya on here Matt, not seen you since our stint with the tourers a few years ago...

Looking at the Rawmarsh pics it does bring back a lot of memories and old faces, happy days

[andyroooo]

Haha I just found myself in the Euros picture at the bottom of the straight chatting to Derick Bradbury judging by the colours of the jackets!!

I do remember those rounded 2wd mini spike tyres infect I still have them in my tyre bag - green blue and yellow! Pointless unless your racing on wet grass with TR32's on the back!!! Think they only brought them out to try and make those awefull Fireblades turn in!!!!

Track behind pub could be Bedworth. We used to race off road behind the Griffin Inn Pub.

It does look vaguely familiar

Does anyone have any photos from the off road track which used to be in Hexham at Fewsters?

Or the Longbenton club at the college?

Looks like the White Hart at Calow, just outside of Chesterfield. (Its now a car park) It's the same place some old dog and Jamie used a garage roof for ramping RC10's into the field next to the track!!!
