Hi all. I've had a final check at the circuit this morning and
by way of confirmation:
The facility will be open from 09.00 (or very soon after). Track
open from 10.00. Final track use approx 17.00
Most seem to be aiming to get there for 10.00 I will be there at
09.15
The track manager for the day is Nick (Dusty).
Circuit use is £35.00 per day for each car. You will need to
sign in and pay before using the track. We should get track use
of between 15-20 minutes every hour.
Full face helmets and race overalls will be required during
racing, however Stretton Circuit have kindly offered the loan of
these to us for the day for free.
Hire karts will not be available on the day (sorry Adrian, but
if your teeth are up to it, you can have a go in my MG)
The small shale oval is available all day.
We have an allocated space in the paddock, it's the freshly
gravelled area immediately adjacent the clubhouse.
Snacks and drinks machines available in the clubhouse.
I confirm that I have also arranged for us to use the adjacent
aero-club cafeteria facilities. It's a private road so you can
drive your CK back and forth !
I've ordered some good weather on the day, so no problems there.
I hope that anybody with an interest turns up on the day and
introduces themselves.
Finally, I am advised that we may have one or two
board-track-racers turn up on the day. This is yet to be
confirmed, but I have checked with Stretton Circuit and you will
be most welcome to join in.
It should be a good day. Graham.

Hi Geoff. You're keen aren't you. Are you hoping to come higher
than second this year? :D :D
No need to park next to the oval, it will not be as busy as last
September's event. We have a reserved section of the track
paddock immediately adjacent to the right of the clubhouse. It
is freshly shingled.

I have spoken with Chris Wood this morning. Chris and his son
are joining us tomorrow and bringing two 'board track racers'
that they have built. It should be a lot of fun to run together
and swap ideas.
