Hey guys,

Me and Ian (drifter) met up with Barry (1275mini) earlier today to have a look over the site they fly in and that also provides the Moto-X guys a place to run. All the heli guys that turned up today think it is a great idea to let us join up with them and create a bash spot and track for the 2 strokes. It appears the farmer is ok with letting us run on his land as long as we abide by some basic rules as it is a working farm.

We can through the farmer get hold of a container and one of the heli guys has access to a JCB type machine that willhelp us build the track etc. Fees will be approx. £40 a year plus I feel all club members should be members of the BRCA as it provides third party insurance for about £15 a year.

i think the next step is for all those truly interested in doing this should pm me with name and contact number so that i can present a list to the heli guys to show how interested we are. we then need to organise a viewing of the fields to nominate an area that suits us best. Following this we should create a committee to oversee the work we need to do. this with the right help, can be done over a few weekends if we all chip in.

Pics... sorry for the dirty lens, I wish my wife was as dirty :lol:

look like we have a good area there....just to let you know ive already starting making enquiries about some old astroturf, have just e-mailed 3 companies about the stuff they throw away...no harm in trying......:D.....
i will e-mail some more but the wife wants the laptop....:w00t:
 
Empty your Email box jon as your about to get inundated with responses.

I'm In.

Pm on the way.

Is there anywhere to park close to wherever the track may be located. Sea Container looks like a good idea too, can anyone weld a set of steps and railings guys.
 
Paul - astro turf is a good idea, this is what the majority of the track in the nationals use.

Jackobyte - Parking close to the area we run will be worked out depending on where we can build the track etc. but we should get close.

Charlie/Pete - glad your both in. Charlie not sure if tyres are a good thing they wreck 5th scales. These are th things we need to decide on as a group but keep up the good work as you never know.

If any of the guys on the UK Baja Forum are interested let them know.
 
tyres arent to bad if they're sank deep enough but like you say mate thats a group choice. another thing is drainage pipe but that would be expensive to do a full track!

Correct, as it stands it's too rough and too big for us to use, thats why we are looking to make our own track and have currently got a positive feedback not just from members on here but also from the Heli guys.

So are you in or not? ;)
