Calling all of south east off-road racers due to the good news of Maritime Raceway not losing its venue,:thumbsup: we are considering opening an off road racing club to be run on a Tuesday night with practice days on Some Saturdays. it will be run in the next room at Maritime Raceway and will be a permenent track.
I will give details on track size ASAP and other detail as and when they are ready
Reason for this post, we are trying to find out if it is worth actually opening and running a club:blush:, so please can you post your intrest and if you would attend
all comments are welcome:thumbsup:

going by the turnouts at EPR i'd say you have plenty of people down that side of london to get you going.
Personally its a bit far for me for a Tuesday night, but i'd probably try and attend any saturday and sunday events :)

Let me know if you need any help with anything. The flooring thats there should be ideal as a basis and then perhaps different materials can be used for more or less grip if you choose.
Will you be using some of the features used at the Petit race?

That will be the idea I we have track size by Thursday

I think this is great news and a great idea!!!!
I so crave some midweek racing and Saturday practise!!!!
No offence meant to the FORCC club, but I don't get on with the surface and changing between stock motors and modified would do my head in, have you seen me work on my cars :cry::blush:
I am sure it will take a bit to build a driver base, but to have another club in the South East to go and race at is a dream come true.
So come on you lot show your interest:thumbsup:

if the venue meets the needs then the club will be glad to run meetings
( just a point Maritime Racing Off road club will not be run to compete with the other clubs in the region but to be part of the region and support the sport )

Ian, this is great news.
Evenings will be a push for me - especially as I am a marauder from North of the River but weekends are more feasible.
Its good to have another venue in the area - and it's especially good when venues can try to work together so as not to compete against each other for entrants.
Do we almost have the basis of a modern day South of Watford league between the clubs?
I'm looking forward to Off-Road wars already and with luck, the whole region and area will benefit in the long run from having another very good club and venue to complement the ones we already have.
Top job Ian - thank you :-)
Sounds good racing in the week ( Just what noth kent needed as only 10 min away ) bring it on :D

Dear All
Maritime Racing have been waiting for the powers that be to get back to us.
I am PLEASE to inform you that as of the 6th January 2011 we have received a email giving us permission to go forward to use the next room
at Maritime Raceway to build a permeant OFF ROAD TRACK.
I have still got to show the committee that the intreats is in the area to make this work.
I am also hoping that the Off RoadWars Two Day World Cup can show the support in the local area and the country
book in at www.centralbooking.org
If you want this venue to be built please show support
Not only can the track be open for a Tuesday Night club meeting but will also be able to be used when we open on Saturdays
Thank you reading

Dear Racers
Here is the update as said in a earlier post, The historic dock yard has given the go ahead to build a permeant off road track at Maritime Raceway.
After tonight committee meeting it was agreed to go forward with the proposal to build the track
The next step is to decide which part off the building to use
First offer track size 14 m 24 m
Second offer track size about 14 m 30 m ( will update tomorrow if different )
This is a one time offer for you to have input to which area we should use there will be a meeting possibly
On Saturday 29th January at Maritime Raceway the meeting will start at 12pm ( to be confirmed )
All are welcome

This is excellent!... I was planning on coming to your off-road wars event in Feb and I will definitely be down as often as I can to race :)
The club I ran up near Aberdeen was in a 14m x 30m room as was capable off supporting 4-6 cars in a heat... I'd suggest that size.
Once again...Great news indeed.

Ok now we go forward track ideas.
The surface is wooden we propose a multi surface
Wood
Carpet
slippery
pos some astro turf
what do you all think
frogger
22-01-2011, 09:02 AM
Absolutely great news. Look forward to racing there. Any chance of keeping 1/16th scale buggies in mind when designing the track so we could run them there too?
Rebelrc
22-01-2011, 11:20 AM
All of this sounds fantastic Ian
Loving the multi-surface idea!
Shame I cannot make it to your meeting next Saturday ( roofing ) but please don't think that I am not interested and keen to help out if I can!
Talking of other classes other than 1/10th ,have the maritime considered running the new 1/8th electric offroad indoors in the warm.? That would also be ace ,I don't own one cause there is no where local to run one. But would quickly buy one.:thumbsup:
MattADH
22-01-2011, 04:55 PM
First of all, what Maritime Racing is doing is great news for the area and the class, and I know that many in the area appreciate yours and the club's efforts.
On to the track surface and personally, I think that Astro would be a great choice. Its hardly wears and is incredibly durable, and this also means that there is a good chance that the tyres used outdoors would work at your venue, eliminating the need for different (special) tyres.
Sections of the track that use carpet, wood and a slippery surface would offer a great challenge too. I do undertstand that Astro is often not the easiest to come across and can work out expensive to transport.
Just my two penneth!

Ian I'm afraid I can't make the meeting on the 29th but I hope it all goes well!
I'm sure adding off road to the facility will be a major boost for the South of England.
If you and others can consider the off road 1/16th-1/18th cars in the track design I feel that would be a good move as there are quite a few micros racers in Kent/Essex that would support it.
I'm sure the Micro nationals would love a visit to this venue.
Look forward to news on this venue! Best of luck!

I'll second that Dave - apart from the close to home bit :cry:,
Had the chance to visit Maritime today to meet with Ian and the club.
All I can say is WOW - the area that the club has secured will make for an amazing track and pit space and with their commitment to club excellence, this is going to be a real asset to the locality, the region and the hobby in general.
Ian and his crew have got their heads screwed on right and know what it takes to organise and run a great club without being detrimental to the existing club scene in the area and are not afraid to ask for advice on how to make their venue work for the off-road community.
With the chance to cater for 2+4WD and SCT - All I can say is it gets a massive thumbs up from me and I can't wait...
Great news!

As you've seen from the response to Off Road Wars (and other events around the country) there is a massive interest in indoor off-road and the South East is in need of another venue to support the considerable efforts of the team at FORCC!
Keep up the good work and post any dates for work parties here, personally will make every effort to help and advise!

Completely different situations and completely different relationships with owners/landlords/councils/public/racers etc., etc.
Maritime are making a supreme effort in very many RC car classes and we know that there is support both locally and around the Region.

I for one can not wait for the track to open, hearing that you were doing this was what got me back into off-road again. And both my kids want to come down on Saturdays as well to race.
There was a good turn out at the EPR regional this weekend and it seems off road is really picking up again so im sure the interest will be there. And as said in the prevoius post many people keep asking when it will open.
Is there much more to be done? Anything I can do to help during week day afternoons please let me know.

Off road is so much more popular now especially if weekend meetings could be run either on a sat or sun ?

As per Wayne's World 'Build it and they will come!'
Trust me you'll be plenty busy enough! Lots of talk of the new track and when it's going to be open when I go to other meetings.
Quite a few of us from Faversham club have been going to Taplow, Surrey and Hants club etc to have a race on carpet, having this in Kent you'll be well busy!

Don't think because maybe your not getting the amout of people to help build it that you would have hoped for the track will not be a big hit! your in the right area for many drivers to head over to you
For some reason it's always been the way that people are to busy to build a track but once it's done they find the time to use it:lol:. I have found no matter what club it's always the same faces putting in the graft
I would come...but it's a bit of a drive from darkest norfik:(
Also hats of to you guys, I would be out of puff going up and down the stairs all the time, let alone building the track

Just to re-inforce what others have said!
Very many enquiries at both Club and Regional level as too developments at Maritime and any news about opening dates and meetings!
So keep up the good/hard work, it WILL be worth it!:thumbsup:
Unfortunately can't make Saturday, Olympic work on the up:woot:

I can't wait for this to open!!! Please open now!!!
I've been busy for many Saturdays, a week ago Saturday I was at a National, last Saturday I was at the EOS in Germany, this Saturday I am working. As the outdoor season has started it makes it much harder to have a Saturday free to come help work on the track!
I say open asap and this will help people want to work on the track!!!:thumbsup:

Hi Guys,
Just wanted to share a couple of pics I took on Saturday of the new off road venue. Work is steaming ahead - I could not believe the amount of work the guys at maritime had done since my last visit. There is still quite a bit to do but definitely on the home straight now. The track is pretty much laid and is proper off road with features everywhere - much like the last off road wars set-up - If its raining at the weekend I might pop down again...pretty sure Ian and the skeleton crew will be down there as usual so all hands on deck!! Just to say as well, Ian will soon be organising skips and a major clear up and due to the location at the top of the world it would make life so much easier if anyone could lend a hand for a couple of hours to clear the hall...as I said not sure when but would be a major help to everyone who has already put in masses of work like all the clubs around the country - its thanks to all the volunteers that we get to race so much and with such variety. Lets keep it going and give them a hand as and when we can :)
cheers,
Craig
