NERCR Regional
Stannington.

Google map is available here,

Camping is available from friday after 5pm, anyone arriving before that time will find the gates to the field locked, there will be a charge of £5 per caravan/tent for those camping.

BBQ are allowed aslong as they are lifted off the floor so as not to burn the grass, hopefully there’ll be a burger van there aswell (still waiting for confirmation)

Some videos of the track are available here,

The surface is an artificial dirt used for horses, a large amount of different tyres have been tried, but upto now the best we’ve found are yellow minispikes.

You will be able to pit indoors, although all generators will have to be left outside the door and an extension ran inside.

Any questions feel free to ask and I’ll do my best to answer them or find someone who can.

With regards to the non regional heat as was said at Batley with this being a 2 day event if your in the regional class for that day wether 2wd or 4wd you won’t be able to compete in the non regional class.

Any questions or comments post them here.

Thanks

Peter

Hi Peter,

Will the gates be shut during the night?

We are bringing the caravan up and should be there just after 5pm, but
I have to pick Paul up form Newcastle station and I think his train will not be in until 10 to 10:30pm, therefore I will not be back until around 11pm on Friday night.

The gates will be shut and locked later on, but I'll have the key so can open them up for you.

Hi guys, just thought I'd help with a few of the questions: gates will be locked at night but if you let me or Peter or Bill know then access can be arranged!

Good news we have a burger van there all weekend from Friday

We have a big rostrum not the one in the corner used for smaller meets.

Theres some hard standing for caravans but this will be on first come first serve basis.

Also theres a nice country pub in Stannington village (walkable but may be better to drive) a curry house 10 minute walk the other direction and a fuel station next to the curry house. Also providing the weather is nice on Sat evening we will try and make the campsite a fun place to be too.

Hope to see you all there Friday Sat & Sun

Can't see any reason why not, just the same as it was at Batley where the non-regional heat is for fun only

What time can we get there from?
