Possible new club venue in Nottinghamshire

[dbizzle5]

Thanks very much to all involved for a great days racing. Venue was great and hopefully can get more people along next time. We were blessed by the sun and Im burnt again! A bit windy though! Good bye Mr ramp! I got blown off the rostrum twice! Am just uploading the vids of the 4wd Final now. Have a few crap pics but will put a small report on me-or.co.uk along with the vids and some of Mr Plimmers pics hopefully.

Well - it was certainly warm and sunny! Shame about the wind, but many thanks to all those who came along. I personally enjoyed my racing a lot, despite teething troubles with the X6 that was only completed at 5 this morning!

My photos (not great - I'm a worse photographer than a driver, which takes some doing!!) are on the club website...

Nice pics Ian.

Ace vids Dan, shame you missed the first 'A' , proper close race

Good pics too Ian, and who was it had that camera with the monster lense ?


Just remembered i never paid for today... oops.. sorry Tim, i'll see you soon..


Track had a very nice layout and the grass was nice and smooth, I thought it was a good day.. Think the club knows whats required for next time; bit more track marking, corner dots, slightly more solid jumps.


Ps. i also got blown off the rostrum several times..

More track marking - we will try to source some more marking. The rubber seemed to work well, punishing corner cutting without breaking cars.

Corner Dots - annoyingly left the bright yellow corner dots in my garage!

More solid jumps - Defo!!!! Duck!!!!

[ianplimmer]

what was the track marking you used tim and where was it obtained from

thought it was very good,it outlined the track well but didnt cause much upset to the cars when we clipped them or turned in to tight

[Tim Ward]

Track marking came from Sovereign Rubber - it's cable protector.

It is VERY expensive mind - was bought by us as a shop to lay tracks to promote sales.
