Phil.
They race 1/10 buggies and Micro's on alternate fridays.
Excellent club and facility at Leominster's Bridge street Leasure centre. Track is on an indoor tennis pitch on carpet with some good track features.
Think they are holding a Micro national soon. Hopefully they will have some buggy heats

That's when they start to put track out at 6.30. Usually racing starts about 7.30

That's incredible! Much better than I expected. How cool does it sound too? It does give a good idea of the stresses and strains the poor cars suffer :lol:

is it one of the flycams?

Stu
16-02-2009, 08:55 PM
I think that's similar to the one we used for ther Fister video last year at Oswestry, I seem to remember that was a fly-cam.

I think the smooth track helps - the oswestry track in comparison shakes the camera around a lot and makes it more confusing. Not sure the frame rate is as high but again might be the shaking :wtf:

Wezzer.
Hereford Club have the perfect Track/Facilities to run a great Winter indoor series for the Mid West region. Could be an ideal venue to host the Indoor 1/10 Buggy finals in 2010.:p
Hereford Club have had national series of scales other than 1/10 scale and put on a great show.
Will see you on 27th and talk more about it to you then.
