Default 4wd Rnd 2 @ Coastal

Next regional is 4wd rnd 2 at Coastal (Ipswich). The track has had some work done to it and Im told that the bumps have been ironed out to something approximating a billiard table.

I can only report what I am told gramey, smoove as a babys bum, was one of the phrases used.

If it is that smooth, then I can only commend that work put in by Tony and his band of willing helpers!

I can definitely confirm it is a (w)hole lot smoother than it was.
The kick-up from the concrete path going uphill onto the straight has gone, the exit from the bridge over the ditch can now be taken flat out, the table-top entry is now very gentle and most of the ripples in the corners have also been smoothed out. There are a couple of corners which still have the ripples in them, but hey this is off-road after all.
The amount of soil that has gone into the repairs, the subsequent rolling and the large amount of grass seed that has been spread around over the past month means that it will be a great track for the regional on the 20th May.
The current layout avoids most of the repaired areas, so it should have settled down well, especially with the recent rain, and will be an interesting challenge for all the drivers next week when the new full circuit is opened up.

Just a reminder about booking in for the 2nd Round of 4WD East of England Regionals on Sunday 20th May 2007.

Can drivers register/book in for this meeting as soon as possible please. This helps no end in getting the meeting running as smoothly as possible.
Thanks to all who have already done this.
The first round at Lawford Buggy Club attracted 30 entries and was by all accounts a huge success. It would be nice to see even more numbers at this round.

All I am hoping is that it's drier than Kiddy national, but that won't take much.
