Default Bury Grand Prix

We really need to launch our soon to be completed new track in style, so what about hosting an opening meeting? Perhaps with a few prizes courtesy of JE Spares? And a proper race report article for here, RC Mags etc. It just seems like a good time to promote the club, and the sport in general in this region.
What are your thoughts?

Also, what with the regional season coming up, and Bury racers turning up at Ribble, Roundabout, Chadderton, Pendle etc over the last few months I was thinking - What about some Bury Metro Club stickers for our cars? Get a few sheets printed up and offer to club members FoC to promote the club on their shells.
We've got quite a few 'Bury and Proud' members, so why don't we show it?

Sounds like a great idea Si.

As you say, Bury members are getting plenty of track time at other indoor venues so lets let people know which club we are from.

Do you normally run a championship over the summer months?

Aren't JEspares currently redesigning there current sticker sheet?

Why don't you guys get them to include atleast one "Bury Metro Radio Car Club" sticker, or a web address sticker on their own sheet? As a result it could get the club more members, and by giving RC users more use of the car at a club (that they may not have known about), JEspares would get more sales..
