Ok people lets clear some things up here. 1) No motor limit has been agreed as to many people are running different motor combos so we thought his is best for everyone. If enough people turn up with vintage /scale buggies with 540 cans we will sort a class to keep it fair. 2) this is not an april fools prank we are trying to keep the club alive and do what we can to please all that attend. im sorry that the dates change but other commitments come first. the date is set as mentioned before and it will go ahead. 3) so far we have had a good number of people asking about this day vintage/scale and modern i dont care if only 5 vintage turn up as we are running the race day anyway for all other drivers (buggy only) we need to help keep this club alive and this might give it the upper hand in doing so. 4) the fees are there for a reason so £6 non members we start at 9am and should be finished for about 4ish. this is out first vitage/scale buggy day here so please bare with us we dont who or what amounts will turn up we hope at least 20 inc modern. So stop *****ing and moaning about this and that and show up who knows u might have fun:) thanks for the support. Rob

Ok First thing first we have hit a snag before its got off the ground but only a temp snag. I spoke to the owner of the track today and they have decided to use the weekend of the 21st to update all the timeing system and track layout. this is a major pain in the butt. So it will now be the following weekend 28th march.. sorry to mess people about but its out of my hands. but at least those who might not have been able to come that weekend can this instead all cars are welcome buggies, lunchbox, wildwilly im bringing my wildwilly with me and a lunchbox and they dont corner lol. if you have some cars with modified will will match you up against other cars with modified motors. if you like i can bring my rc10 chamo car running full brushless good for 40mph and my losi team car lol even faster. this is not a day for who has the faster this and that its just to get some peeps together who like the same suff and bash about and race too thanks hope you can still make it

Hi martin glad to see your on board. as this is the first race meet for us we are just getting numbers together to start with so no class's as of yet. i think it would be really cool just to get loads of people together who enjoy vintage rc. If we get get enough people at the first race meet we can take it from there i think. i will be racing my new rc10 i just got off ebay. never been run brand new cant wait. better not get lost in the post:( thanks again rob

thanks terry for the address i was about to add that tonight but had to work. so lots of people with comments any one interested ? we need at least 20 people to make it a decent day out for every one. not much point unless we can have a good race. Terry i was half asleep this morning when i wrote my reply so got the years of buggies wrong either way its a long time agreed. So if anyone wants to come please add your names either on email or we can start a list going thanks rob

Ok guys thanks for the comment. it would seem i missed a few things out. ok first of all the location its in macclesfield at the indoor macc track i will get the exact address today for you guys. we are only running buggies to start with but i know they run a race night on a tuesday and fri nights starting at 7pm on both nights my friend races these nights and he says its great. but this vintage day is just for buggies to start with. the date is wrong sorry sold have been 21st march at 9am there is no formal race time its going to be just a fun day really with some friendly racing. we want as many vintage buggies we can get so tell everyone you know. all buggies are welcome but we will be checking them so ensure original motors. this is not a serious day out just abit of fun for those who remember the good old days any more questions please feel free to ask. cut off i would say no later than 98 that gives us about 10 years of buggies. thanks again for your interest.
