The oval looks great! Have you thought about promoting 1/12th oval classes? Bangers, stock cars and hot rods etc. Would be ideal, and the classes are relatively cheap so a driver base would grow easily. The circuit looks cool too.. Looks like it would be really good for m chassis tamiyas.
I've got so much respect for anyone who starts a club, been involved in wrcc in wycombe for years and fully understand the commitment. Fair play mate, I really hope it's a success!

Hi Mike

Yes i have approached the local oval club / touring car club / drift club in Manchester.

with some flyers and we have had a few drivers drop in on us

I know Rome wasn't built in a day and all club start somewhere.

but we are still building the core of the club and will listen to any improvements we can make to the club.

currently we are open

Fri 6 till 10 ( next meet is 25th Nov )
Sat 10 till 6
Sun 10 till 6

It's a good club with some real potential! I do really think making the track big would be a great move and attract more drivers.

All the best for the future and hopefully il be down again when I can

Hi guys

Quick Update

the new track is down and bigger than the original

but we are at it again ..........

we listened to the drivers that attended last Fridays meeting and the decision has been made to move the oval track into another room where the future rock crawling and drift track will be and make one large track in the main room.

so this track will be permanently laid and ready to race every

Friday Saturday and Sunday.

the track is open tomorrow the 25th

hi Daz

the new track will be 3 times bigger than the current one the decision was only made yesterday so removing the two existing tracks and making a new one will take some time around work ect.
