Wooders28 4723 Posted July 25, 2020 I don't think postage is included, but if you win a Avante Black for a tenner, I'm guessing you're not going to grumble at couple of quid for postage 😂 I'd collect and post, if Gordon wouldn't (but the chances are ,he will) 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Falcon#5 594 Posted July 25, 2020 I'd be up for that, but can't even leave the state with the hard border closures. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Falcon#5 594 Posted July 27, 2020 Grats to the winner. You have to be in it to win it, and is for a good cause. Track looks great. No jumps? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Forecast was for heavy rain and all our ramps are from our old indoor track ,and made of MDF, so figured they wouldn't survive the meeting, and Tbh, there was enough, roughness, off cambers and random holes ,to contend with anyway! 😳😂😂 One of the guys had a drone, so I'm hoping there's going to be some footage coming soon, although maybe not the start of the last race of the night, fling whatever car you want on ,and have a race ,race. You'd think with a 4 mtr wide, 40+ mtr long straight, the start would be nice and clean? Think 2 cars made the first corner 🤦♂️😂😂 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
