Hi again all,

Thought i would show off our latest track design changes from this weekend.

We've had a few smaller electric buggies on the track recently and they seem to love it along with all 10th scale and 8th scale. We even had a few 5th scale cars including Baja's and Rally X although the baja did struggle on the S bends.

More changes to follow but this is the track today:

The wooden sheets in the middle will become a tabletop which we were experimenting on. Will be soil mostly but we are using the wood to determine where to put it. I want a jump before it so you can land on the tabletop or clear it onto the rear slope.

We have several tonn of soil comming this week to help create the new banks and fill some new ruts and will need several more tonn to complete the tabletop.

Top left corner is next but it's another major change to do and the one we started today will take time. Very soon you will see a large bank on the top left corner and another two at other turn spots.

Hopefully end up with something like this before end of August?:

May I also let you know we are trying to raise some funds to help towards a rostram extension so putting on a cheap fun race/bash day on Sunday 30th August 09. As we had a good response from the small electric buggies (National Racers I may add!) the fun races will be anything under 10th scale as one race/heat (-10th Buggies), 10th scale Buggies, 8th Buggies, 8th Trucks and possibly oversized 8th and 5th together as 8th+ Rally.

We are still in the evolution process somewhat so not quite a full club as yet and welcome novices (like us) and full on pro racers alike. I'm a keen on the mechanics of cars and love to help where I can.

Could do with some Tamiya sponsorship ;) .
