Floaters as in astro-turf or ramp frames that is!

Well...just been trackside at my local track Mendip RC Raceway to check it out before our supposed race day tomorrow...we're minutes from the Somerset levels, and had a big storm pass over last night, so was expecting the worst....but wasn't prepared at all for what I saw when I arrived...





Urrrr.....I had expected to put a couple of great lake pictures up...instead it's few tiny puddles?!?! Good news really I guess...shows our drainage isn't bad...so racing is on tomorrow!

It has been worse in the past....



And our on-road track has suffered far worse too, but I don't have any pics of that sadly.
