suppose so, i race on that track a fair bit during the summer. the hill in the middle is pretty cool isn't it?

the indoor dirt track is unique though and it's going to be a shame if it's lost.

I definetly ain't upset that it is going, i hate it lol. I have been told that there will be a regional series run on the outdoor track which is great, not sure if it will be in the winter or through out the summer.

It'd be a shame to not have ONE national on "dirt" - There must be loads of these equestrian centres around the UK though, can't believe nobody else has ever used one for a track?

Tivertons indoor track is awesome, there is nothing else like it and its a great shame to be lost. I think the bonus for the club is the last national on it is one of the best surfaces it has ever had (or so I beleive, best I remember) and so it ends on a high.

I did hear over the weekend that the person who owns the Arena wasn't sure what he was going to do with it. Hopefully it will cost too much to put the rubber chips down and leaves it as it is.

I had super weekend, won my 2wd final (2nd final from last) after some clever under qualifying… tried the same gag in 4wd final (bottom final) only to find that Preddy had the same plan (I'm joking), still I managed 2nd after receiving a ‘stop-go’ penalty.

I manage to do such better times/laps in both my finals, way better than any in qualifying, something I need to sort out soon… it’s when they say “you’re not racing each other just the clock” if the clock was running behind me on the track I’d be doing a lot better.

Super weekend, good to get away from work and have some fun with lots of nice people and Southwell.

Well done to Preddy for winning that bottom final - he drove very well and fought a hard battle to take the victory, well deserved.

Somthing similar happened to me on the weekend.. both days in the first qualis i was aiming for the D, then seemed to slow down abit, had another good run but then do my best of the day in the ruddy final.

Thanks to the people who i was racing with both days in the final though, it was really enjoyable, double win for me.. happy days.

I had a terrible 2WD weekend. Qualified 9th in the L and came 6th. I was understeering all the time and spent most the time ploughing through the dust

Never mind, it will drop this one.

Thanks to those who came up and said they like the TRANSFORMERS shell

Meeting was another well run meeting so congrats to everyone. I was generally disapointed with how i did this weekend i just couldn'tt seam to get the lap times that i should of really been getting but i learnt a lot about the car and ended up trying a few different set up things that started to move things in sort of the right direction. Hopefully i will be able to get in to another 4 meetings so that this round can be dropped
