Oh yeah, just a thank you to Mow and his crew (Aaron?) for finding the spot and making it usable, it needs some work but we can make it as good as we want! Good to meet another member :good:

enjoyed meeting you guys, lots of people could not get this morning, so hopefully next time should be alot more. Had great fun with the buggys just need to get my truggy running now. thanks for the go with the 1/5 banners, makes me want one, thinks its a bit too big to hide from mrs mow, will have to work on that one.

Location is getting better each week when the jumps and piping added will look good, further extensions to the area at the right on the videos planned with pits and control area.

thanks jay

The track has had a fresh cut, the jumps have arrived and ready for use, they are portable so track set up can be changed, track is cut wide for 1/5 scale as most tracks seem to be too narrow for them, this means suitable for all scales I am looking at organising a bash this weekend coming Sunday morning into the afternoon if anyone can make it. Remember aswell as the track this is a 12 acre wood so you can go off and bash to your hearts delight

Hi all we have had permissoin off the farmer to relocate the syda lane track just outside of chesterfield at Holymoorside , we have relocated about 100 yards away from the original grass track to a much bigger area which we can do what we want with ,some work has allready taken place and there is a basic dirt course there but wee need people to come up for a bash and give us your ideas /input for improvments to it and to make it 1/5th scale freindly as they are getting real popular now so would be a good idea to include them too , so bring your rc's and your spades and stuff lol , im not sure on a proper poscode yet but it will be S42 holymoorside ,syda lane

 

i am thinking a meet up on the 2nd of may 10am either at this location (which i will provide full postcode and directions) or at my house and convoy on up there we could do with as many people as poss for this and we also have SMD http://www.s-m-d.co.uk/ and MCR http://www.mcrchesterfield.co.uk/ rc models shops very interested in the track for possible future racing and sponsership too so we have to get it right lol to make it a succes

 

also would it be possible for people to bring and leave things like piping,wood for jumps anything that could be of use to improving and building the track
