Plymouth's Newest Offroad Track

Posts Tagged ‘fun’

Hi All,

This is just a quick update about the Huntings Disease Association 2010.

I have been asked to ask everyone to try and be at the Fayre (which is at Buckfastleigh Race Course this year) by 9.30 on the Saturday. Also please can as many of you as possible supply Registration Plate Numbers for the vehicle you will be attending in, we need this to make it easier on the security that will be on site and at the gates.

Just a reminder that camping on the Friday and Saturday night is free and there is entertainment on both nights along with a beer tent.

If you are attending and are from a club (other than Plymouth) please do bring a banner along to advertise your club.

Also please do pass on the inform to fellow racers, club members and RC Enthusiasts as this event is all about rasing money for charity and raising awareness for the great hobby/sport we all know as RC Car Racing.

After the great success of the Huntington's Diesease Assoication Fayre last year at Exeter race course, we have been asked back to do another weekend of racing. This year the event is being held at Buckfastleigh is going to be the same setup as last year.

On the Friday night this yar there is a wedding reception that is open to all campers and on the Saturday there will be other entertainment. Camping is free and open Friday night and Saturday night.

Last year we (the drivers that attended from different clubs) rasied £130 for HDA after covering the cost of the trophies, this year it would be great to break the £200 mark for them. To do this we need help from everyone and the way to help is come along to race with others. After the great success of the Huntington's Diesease Assoication Fayre last year at Exeter race course, we have been asked back to do another weekend of racing.

The Racing is going to be on the following set up:-

• Class run will be 1/10th, 1/8th Buggy, Truggy and 1/5th. If you are unsure of what class you will run in, do not panic we WILL find a class for you to enter.
• Fees for the event are £10 a class for the 2 days or £6.00 for just one day per Class.
• Camping is Free, Definately open to Camping Friday & Saturday Night.
• Saturdays racing is Qualifiers all day.
• Sunday is Qualifiers in the morning and Finals in the afternoon.
• Trophies for 1st,2nd, 3rd

Watch this space for more information.

Well with all the snow we have been everywhere we could not miss the operatunity to have a play in the snow...... And what better chance than carry on and have the 5th round of the winter championship.

The day was fun and when the snow balls started to fly they were aimed at one other and for those that had a good aim, at the cars. There was also stray snow men appearing on the track for all to aim at.

By the end of the day everyone was saying
"Can we race in snow more often?"

So all that can be said to that is Roll on more snow!!

After the Lost of a great person last month it has been decided that we are going to support the family and hold a race in memort of Tony and raise money for charity as the request of the family.

So we are going to do a charity race with a difference, we are doing a Days Racing with Caravans. This was because his son suggested it one day with his father at the track as they were both ex-banger racers, and they have done this with full size vehicles.

So come on everybody and join in the fun, and to find out more please follow the link below:-

Here is a quick video done by one of our members showing off the fun we had on the Friday Night Electric Racing.

Hi All,

After a quiet first meeting the second meeting is looking to be a lot more promising. And the most impressive thing is the electric racing is beinging in the female racers that we do not see on the Sundays.  Maybe this is the beginning of the women showing the men (or is boys?!?!?!?) how it is done?

The most pospular class looks like it is going to be the brushed class, followed by the 1/18ths, and bringing up the rear is the brushless class.

So remember if you have an electric car (no matter the age of the car as we have some as old as 20 year turning up) please do come along to support thing fun racing over the summer months.
