They never had it before? could be a data mining thing or maybe you need to for camping.

121 miles away. Hmm

I might send them an email to ask, I'll probably go just for a day maybe both days but i won't be camping as it's only an hours drive

You should definitely go it's not that far lol 

if we do order before the actual day, how are we supposed to collect it from them as they don't have a contact number to get in touch apart from their online support service?

479 miles or 4 1/2 hrs from me, although the map app I used did say if I walk I could cut it down to 459 miles!

The warehouse will be open so you just walk up with your order number etc and collect.

Nice, was wondering when this was going to be. Car track like last year? They had a small crawler spot last year too. be good to meet a few more MSUK members

Yep car track again this year so I will be definitely be taking something this time 

Only a week to go.

whats the weather looking like? its been pants recently at the weekends this ways...

No rain apparently buy you know what that means.

Just to confirm the track will be there again this year, pic from FB

Just realised it's not at their uk warehouse Elmsett Airfield location like previous years.

I'll be there on Saturday with a few mates 

Same here!

 

Boating pond this year as well

Just got back. Bigger venue this year so more spread out with boats, planes, quads and cars. Less people there this year than previous.

 

@cookie666uk and I managed to have a couple of runs on the car track which was well laid out and a good size.

 

No free food this year but was happy to find the burgers etc on offer were reasonably priced. Loads of empty space which would have been prime for an rc car boot setup so the public could sell stuff alas the only bits for sale were a few models that people had on their club stands. Did manage to pick up some wheels just by chance. Hobbyking are missing a trick by not having stuff for sale, I know it's impossible to have everything there but a few of each model some batteries/chargers etc and they would have sold, especially if they got a 5-10% 'show discount' or something, people had cash in their pockets with nothing to buy!. They had 4 or 5 of their cars on display on a camping table in the corner of the track and some planes in the flying area and that was it. 

 

i took a fair amount of cash intending to buy a plane and tx rx and a few batteries. nothing to buy meant the cash stayed in my pocket.... silly hobbyking

Went back today. Found a leaflet on the floor mentioning 10% off order made at the event! I asked someone who had just finished ordering if he knew anything about this and he said no! I Then found a small box with the leaflets in, seem they were happy to do the offer but didn't want to advertise it. I collected my order that I had made from home at 7am this morning if I had known I would have ordered there!
