Hi guys sorry, just got back from Autosport show! There is 240V in the arena, however you will need to bring extensions etc.

As Gary Sais postcode to the correct junction off A1 works but after this follow signs for Netherton park and after you go over 1 speed bump its next left!

Unfortunately the burger van has had to cancel so bring your own food and drinks too.

Any other questions feel free to ask away on here and Il get back to them asap this evening!
cheers
and see you all tomorrow

Had a great day today at Stannington.
Thanks to Harry & Bill, I think it is an excellent venue, surface very reminiscent of Tiverton indoor venue.
Great racing today, the 4wd A final was really good to watch.
Hope the next meeting there doesn't clash with anything else we have pre-booked for as don't want to miss it.
Well done lads

Barry

Today was excellent, it's a quality venue.

The surface is brilliant and really weird at the same time. I had no tyre wear and there was loads of grip.

Defiantely can't wait to go again.

Really enjoyed running it and driving today, despite needing a set of Pack tyres. In fact any set of newish tyres would have been a good start.
Sorry about forgotten printer everyone.

Great surface, great venue - thx Harry

Good to hear it was a good days racing.

I'm looking forward to attending the next round at Stanington. Who won??

Had a really fun day and some super close racing..

In practce full spikes did the trick but no good once there was a racing line!
After that I tried new Schumi yellow mini spikes and Ballistic green mini spikes and found there was not a lot of difference at all, the only thing was yellows didn't clog up at all.

Hope I can make the next one

Yellows were good in the final but shame I only put softer springs on after the final when we were practicing, what a pleb.

I have my setup now and I'm gonna win!!
