im the same really, what name some places you go and ill see what sort of distances they are. im just out side of portobello in edinburgh. wanting to get out tomorrow if you are free?

I normally use dunnikier park, near asda in Kirkcaldy. There are a few big fields, plenty of space and its usually quiet where I go. Went there with Alan before.

To be honest I'm not sure of any other good places.

Anywhere you would recommend?

I'm on leave Tuesday/Wednesday so I'm available no problem.

Cheers

Stef

hi guys

Rusty Dunnikier park is like bottom of Gypsy brae where we met up that time its a big grassy area and its pretty good and not quite as much doggy poo

unfortunately im not available evenings just now got a friend in hospital with cancer , can try make daytime sometime tho

you guys could always try Craigie quarry tho ( Stef knows where it is not sure if Rusty does tho but can give directions if needed )

Sorry to hear that Alan.

heres a quick image from google maps with the bit up dunnikier park, doesnt really show the area well but here goes. normally just park the car on the track around the tree, so its nice and close atleast.

Craigie quarry is good, but ive left half my off road tyres from the marder up there somewhere lol

awww sorry to hear about that Alan hope they get better, my aunt once said to me only the brave get it.

thinking about going to get a monthly bash sorted out up at perth or something sorted between the 3 of us like some sort of rotation for locations as we are pretty spread.

these are the only google shots i could get of my local sites

a regular meet would be good, the more the merrier. those 2 sites look good, especially the first one - looks like it could be quite rutted and rough?

anyone thought about the summer jam? im waiting to hear back from nick then im possibly going to buy 2 weekend tickets.

it has defo being playing on my mind about the summer jam. looks amazing!!!

is there a point you can see the whole bing at broxburn al? my engine would definately take a beating WOT for a full tank lol.

yeah that is around 5 mins from my house, it is amazing. can be really tight in areas so good reactions and concentration is needed big time. need to watch out for the half bricks. some of the chunks that i have been took out the chassis are crazy. currently uploading a vid of one of the jumps. sorry about the long intro was engine was cold. my hump pack was pretty much done but i had to go big then go home lol.

FPMSL! Still cracks me up, sorry mate :lol: yes your right, i am one to beware of :lol: its all part of the bashing fun is it not, oh wait its r/c car bashing not r/c car bashing folk - thats where ive went wrong

Alan, you better get something robust to hide in for when the 5ive turns up lmao. Thinking of getting myself a little project to build with my portsmouth bonus on my wage this month - maybe a hpi baja 5sc ss kit

so that'll be a nitro buggy and 2 petrol trucks to dodge :lol:
