Anyone in Newcastle know good RC spots?

There is an RC Track down in Sedgefield, which is a bit of a treck, but not totally out the way. https://www.facebook.com/groups/2393422920754702

 

I'm down in Northallerton, N. Yorks, so not a million miles away, and I'm certainly not shy of shoving my bashers in the boot and cruising places.... so I'm going to follow the conversation.

 

If the folk that let me have my workshop on their land let me, I'm also going to have a bashing track set up from time to time... but frankly time and me are not friends. I wish I could clone myself 😄

I live in south Gosforth, Where do you guys go for bashing? Anything with some jumps?
Also any good  spots to take a felony?

I'm not far from you, there's a few little dirt jumps down near seaham I've been to a couple of times. There's great ayton quarry a bit further south and I think hetton park in Houghton has a BMX track that could be worth a visit.

I was planning on going along there on Sunday but had other plans unfortunately.

I reckon I will make the trip once I have my Tekno ET

If you are looking for off-road, we went to the BMX track at Whickham Thorns last weekend and it was excellent.  There is a skate park as well if you feel like smashing your cars up 😜

Just tried to look on the North East Bashers Group but it's private and I ain't on Facebook. Any idea whereabouts the outdoor track in Hartlepool is that is mentioned on the page description?

 

Also how was Wickham thorns with all of the other users, e.g. BMX etc? I'm trying to find somewhere that's relatively quiet, I was thinking of hetton Lyons BMX track, but it's half term this week so probably a no-go
