Not long now!

Weather looking good!



We have a good track planned with some interesting features to make for a good day's racing.

Weather forecast has not been accurate all week for Newark area - often 8 to 12 hours out! So fingers crossed.

Track is short grass (cut it today) with some small 'flip/flop' jumps and one double/table top/drop off feature on the back straight.

Laid it out today and had a run - seems good to us!

Grip was high and the view from the rostrum good.

There is a cut through direct to Gainsborough Road from the race track to save walking/driving up Woodlands.

For those who want refreshments on the day there are filling stations on the A1/A46/A17 roundabout and on the A1/A46 Newark roundabout there is a McDonalds and a KFC. The pub will be serving Sunday lunches!!!! It's a good pub but likes to see itself as 'fine dining'!!

See map for relative location of McD's and KFC...

Pre-booking not necessary at all! It's just a 'for fun' meeting - the pre-booking was just to gauge the demand!!

Please - anyone who wants to race just turn up - racing starts at around 10am so you have time to visit McDonalds on your way!

The weather front has been moving more quickly than previously thought - chance of rain now no more than 20%

Looking forward to it - drag everyone you know along!
