So after our hugely succsessful Christmas "Race For Cake" meeting we've decided to go BIG !!! ... and run a open meeting in the same style....
The format is drift oval, not an obvious choice for an open meeting but after the season run of nationals we thought something a bit different would be fun ... and that's what this is all about
Here's a video from the A final of our last meeting to give you all some idea of what your letting yourselves in for !!

... don't be fooled into thinking it's slow ... this is how it feels on track !!

Entry fee and conditions ... £20.00 this includes a saloon bodyshell and a set of compulsory slick tyres and your entry to the meeting.(or £10.00 if you already own a suitable body)
Tyres are rubber inner tube rings that will need glueing onto a set of foam tyres.
Bodyshell will be either - Phat Bodies Banzai Mini or the new MK2 Escort body thats is currently being made. The choice is yours.
When is it ? after a chat with the guys it looks like we'll be running on sunday 17th of March.
No trophies !!!! sorry but do you really want another plastic pot ? .... but there will be cake for every final winner !!
We will be starting taking payment with in the next couple of weeks, (pre- entry only, closing date - March 31st) this will give you all a chance to get your bodies mounted and painted, tyres fitted and get in some practice.
More details to follow .....
