Off Road In Essex

[hairy gardener]

Calling All Off Road Racers!

Is anyone in Essex, or the surrounding areas, interested in off road rc racing???

I am looking into starting a club near Billericay, Essex.

Any ideas, hints, tips from anyone would be appreciated.

What would people want from a new club and what would you expect from a track?

What classes would you want to race?

I look forward to hearing from you ,

Happy RC Racing.

Hi mate,

Good luck to you; it would be nice to see an offroad tracks in this area catering for 1/10th electric. Nitro is pretty well covered with the track near Rayleigh, but that track is far too big for 1/10th buggies IMO. The only other track in these parts is MERCC which is up near Chelmsford way. It's not a bad track, but a bit too grassy for my liking! Have you got a bit of land that you can use or are you looking to find some?

I think the best offroad tracks are muddy and dusty, the 3A raceway near Gatwick is a superb track to use for ideas/reference.

I currently race touring cars indoors, but if there was a good outdoor venue for 1/10th electric buggies locally I would definitely give it a go. And perhaps the venue could also be used for the occasional weekend Tamiyaclub drives too?

thanks for the reply and info.

i am currently in discussions about a plot of land - so it all depends on how that goes!

Tamiyaclub events are a definite - fingers crossed!
