Hi all,
Are there any dirt or clay indoor tracks in the UK? I ask this because when I see tracks in different countries I,e. America, the track seem to be much more interesting with proper jumps....
Thanks

With the price of rent in the UK it really is not possible.

There used to be:
Proline Dirt Arena
Storm Valley

and both have now shut down

There was one in Cheshire last year, privately run, but it closed due to lack of support..!:(

The track in cheshire was great, plenty of parking/pitting, and a well stocked onsite shop. i went to practice quite a few times.
Originally was set up for 1/8 nitro.
The owner did come on here to guage interest to make it more 1/10 friendly but there was very little interest.
I couldnt actually believe it to be honest, everything was there, and very few chose to use it.
There was a fantastic indoor on road track near derby but that closed a few years back. I believe the council wanted some very expensive changes made for 'safety'.
It doesnt help that most of us expect to use our very expensive equipment at a cost of a few quid. We should all be very thankful to the volunteers who spend their time and effort keeping clubs going and providing us with somewhere to race.
