Hi

The School is located here

We race in the sports hall located around the back of the building, you will see a small lane to the right of the school that takes you around the back

9AM - The hall opens
9AM-10.30AM Open Practice
10.30-10.45AM - Drivers Briefing
3 Round of Qualifying FTQ
3 Leg Finals

We really hope buggies can get off the ground and running as we have a superb track and club with fun and competitive racing.

Am I right is saying that although no spikes are allowed, you can use a tyre which has had all the spikes cut off?

Yeap, Mark Penny ran some mini pins with the spikes cut off and dremel into a slick tyre, So works pretty well for all those old sets

Yeah you can. I was using a set of Marks yellow minispikes that he'd dremeled the spike down to make it into a slick last week, and they were pretty good. The general feeling is that these are probably the best tyre for the job! I'll give you a look at them tomorrow at drop inn.
