Post 17 JULY Main field madness / champ round 9

Its that time again for some old skool grass action on the main field

Same as before a large grass track with a few jumps thrown in the mix to keep you on your toes

This will be round 9 of our summer championship also...

Exclamation WEATHER UPDATE

Ok so unless it brightens up / stops raining for any length of time we will be running on the astroturf tomorow......
Thats the benefit of us having 2 track areas

Personally i woudl race on the grass but due to the slope of field and amount of rain we woudl be in risk of real cars getting stuck, or chewing up the field which we dont wan't!!

Will post again late tonight to confirm race surface for tomorow

cheers

dave

Rather than travel an hour to COBRA and run the risk of getting rained off, weve booked our Wednesday evening hall at Waunarlwydd, Swansea from 11.00 - 3.30 for some indoor practice.

Anybody is welcome to join us if they wish. If interested i will post up information on here regarding location e.t.c.

p.s, not trying to hi-jack this thread, so dont be cross at me Dave. LOL

Talking Weather reports

Weather reports all seem to have improved for tomorow
http://uk.weather.com/weather/tomorrow-Cardiff-UKXX0030

http://news.bbc.co.uk/weather/forecast/4

Some scattered/light showers, dont think the field will be dry enough tho unless we have a dry afternoon as when i just popped there it was pretty wet
The astroturf track seems fine, may have less sand in it again after the rain

The overnight temps are supposed to be very mild - that astro should dry out very quickly
