Thought i recognized the HRCCC name and the address. I wasn't up there for racing, but to collect two bears cut out of tree stumps from the tree surgeon that lives further up the track in the woods. looked like a cool little club

i think they race between about 10am to 12pm, depending on number of people who turn up. but you can turn up a little earlier to get set up.

Do you know if there is a limit on motor size there? as buying a brushless set up this week & don't want to get something if i can't run it there, planning to race there every 2 weeks from now on with either a sx3, B44.1 ft comp spec or a lazer zx-5 fs2, haven't decided which to get but i will be coming to you guys at DMS for the kit, also what is a good tyre for the astro turf?
Cheers Gainsy |

AFAIK there is no motor "limit" as such as HRCCC, but to be fair the track is fairly small so you would not want anything too powerful, (8.5 max in 4wd at a guess) Tyre wise the most popular requested tyres for their astro are the normal types, Schumacher Yellows in the dry and Greens in the damp with Ballistic Buggy greens if really wet.... Although I was one of the original members of the HRCCC club when it was back in Hemel Hempstead in the 1990's when we joined forces from a small club in Watford, sadly I hardly ever get to go up there any longer, since commitmnets to bigger meetings such as the regionals and nationals leave no time in the calendar, as well as running our own indoor club in the area too. The club is small and friendly if that is what you are after and the latest and greatest equipment is certianly not essential to be able to race up there on a fortnightly basis. Hope that helps Darren

Want to use it as a platform before i enter the regional and nationals, been out of the game for a long time so just want to get some race experience in again I am leaning towards the Cat as always been a bit of a sucker for Schumacher but the Kyosho does look nice, just need to get my head round this lipo stuff, was nicads only in my day & it is confusing the hell out of me I am sure the shop can point me in the right direction |

Is this thje same club which used to race at the Marchment arms(I think) and was part of the Pyramid club in the 80's, which also included St.albans ( Veralanium) and Dunstable (coach and horses pub)
I was a member and Young committee member all those years back, lost interest when got into the VW scene, I've been in Sydney, Australia since 1999, but returning back to St.albans for a couple of years and looking for somewhere to race. cheers Steve |

Hi Steve, no this club started out in Hemel Hempstead racing in Phasels Wood Campsite, then relocated over to Watford at its current home at "Lee's Wood". The Verulam club in St.Albans was somthing different along with the St.Albans Buggy Club that run in Cottonmill lane too....
