Sandmaster Ben Posted January 3, 2013 Share Posted January 3, 2013 (edited) Hi Guys, There's a spot I go down to with a few mates sometimes on a Sunday as the businesses there are closed. It's a great spot especially if its been wet the previous day as it's tarmac and drains relatively well. It's not too bad if it's wet on the day either. I get fed up of having to clean all the mud out of it all the time as some of the other places aren't great when it's wet. There is a good jump where the grass bank seperates the two carparks. Suitable for all cars and scales, both fuel and electric. it's located about a mile from modelsport, not that they're open on a sunday. Postcode - LS21 3JP (I don't know how to import the map) If you look at it on the map you will see 3 car parks. The one we use is a middle of the 3 where the line of boulders can be seen. You enter just where the blue car is pulling out onto ilkley road. If anyone fancies trying it out let me know.

Sandmaster Ben Posted January 3, 2013 Author Share Posted January 3, 2013 Lol nice one, its just left of the pin in the larger middle car park, basically you enter off the road into the car park. Its quite big and away from houses. I'll sort organising a meet one Sunday Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sandmaster Ben Posted January 13, 2013 Author Share Posted January 13, 2013 Nice one mate glad you thought it's ok. As you mention, great when its damp as the cars stay clean. Did you find the jump between the two car parks? Near the metal bar height restriction thingy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Leeds Paul Posted February 5, 2013 Share Posted February 5, 2013 Looks like a good spot. I live in Yeadon and take my DRX to Nunroyd park to go on clay/gravel and into a business park between the offices on their tarmac car parks. Otley mills looks bigger so I might give it a go one Sunday. Does anybody know anything about the track in Skipton ? link to my car at the business park in Yeadon 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
graxon2001 Posted February 5, 2013 Share Posted February 5, 2013 I think the track at Skipton is for RC bikes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it is the only problem there was cars and kerbs. Jet2 is open all the time so the business park is never properly deserted. Try the otley spot mate its open enough so you don't hit anything.
