red devil Posted August 29, 2010 Share Posted August 29, 2010 When i went there i had my cars on there and t-maxx went fine round it. Where else is there to go now a days? i got alot of cars a 1/10 goes round there perfect and the 1/16 which my kids got. I think its a very good track aint that small i guess on the video it looks small when i first went there i thought it was going to be tiny got there and it was a pretty good set-up not the smallest of places and it was a fun day out for me and the kids.

Si Coe Posted August 29, 2010 Share Posted August 29, 2010 (edited) Definitely looks a bit small to me. Certainly a lot smaller than the space Bury are looking at for their indoor track. Can't imagine it being much good for racing anything bigger than micros because you'll never be able to pass people. For holding a 1/10th scale national event you are supposed to have a track 2 metres wide almost all the way round, and ideally 3 metres for the straight. Now clearly most clubs (especially indoors) can't do that, but you get the idea of the sort of size needed. The funniest bit is the shop selling Traxxas stuff though. Sure to be a bit disappointed the minute someone turns up with an Associated, Yokomo or Schumacher and blows them all into the weeds. Traxxas makes great bashers, but they suck on the track.......

louder Posted August 29, 2010 Share Posted August 29, 2010 Yer the T-maxx makes the track looks really skinny. I assume its designed for 1/16? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hammy2891 Posted August 29, 2010 Share Posted August 29, 2010 Yer the T-maxx makes the track looks really skinny. I assume its designed for 1/16? designed for 1/16 for sure, brilliant atmosphere, nice people & good size track for as you said 1/16. Managed to get my 1/10 4x4 slash round on an empty track with no problem,bit tight but good fun, certainly gave me an insight into running on a track against just bashing. there is another thread on here about the track, HERE kev Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sphinx Posted August 29, 2010 Share Posted August 29, 2010 I went a viewed the track and met the owner Chris, we had a chat about the track and he said that he might be getting a bigger place thats about 8x bigger than this one I looked at the track and my Baja would just take up all the room lol Gav Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kpowell911 Posted August 29, 2010 Share Posted August 29, 2010 I admire the blokes ambition, But he needs alot more space than this to be so sucessful! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrspeedy Posted August 29, 2010 Share Posted August 29, 2010 By the looks of the pics he has just enough room to run some race meetings, well for 10th or 16th classes anyway. I'm sure there are peeps in the Bristol/South West area that would be interested in race meetings .... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
