I don't live in the area anymore, but I know the Sunderland page on facebook asked a few days ago if there was any interest in an rc track. They didn't say whether it would be on or off road.
Can't link direct, but it was this tuesday at 6.17pm - the mesasge was "Been asked to ask: Would anyone be interested in an RC(radio control) car club in and around Sunderland? I'd have a go, anyone else, anyone already in one?" |

up date and progress on the track
Ladies and Gents
Following my thread starter I have spent many hours looking into possible funding from the council and sports in the community and ended up putting it on hold in the short term but that avenue is still open for the future. Yes I can confirm I have decided to fund the club personally and located the siutable land in the Gateshead area and negotiated the rent. I am presently dealing with the legal documents, as we all know dealing with third parties and local authorities this has a pace of its own, FRUSTRATINGLY VERY SLOW, and I cant rush it. I have sourced the Astro and have it in storage at the moment until the paperwork is completed. I am also in talks for some possible sponsorship but that is all dependant on the track / club opening. I am looking to complete all the paper work and build the track in the next 3 weeks and get up and running with a opening compertition the last week of august after the Durham GP. I have been let down with some eqiupment which I am trying to source buy / hire have donated. so if any one can help please pm me. Bobcat / JCB weekend hire Field/land drain pipe Skaffold (Rostrum) Amb lap timing set up Pa system Regards Paul |

shame its so far north, id asked a few from TRCC about going to TyneMet for a few nights an most say its too far. For me personally it would cost £15+ in fuel before racing. When you posted id really hoped it was gonna be more central
Dont get me ill still like to come but it wont be as much as id really like to due to travel costs |

+1 for the permanent track.
I've been looking into it fr years, but I was trying to get a non- rentable site, which still looks like it is atleast 12 months away. Please consider national requirements when building a track, it is only then you'll get the big meetings, incl big regional attendance to support the venture, and tisde you over the quieter club meetings. Ive always had issues with planning permission for rostrums and race control buildings aswell, when sitting down with people - so any pointers on this would be welcome. Good luck.

Well this is the furthest anybody has got so massive well done for now!
I have asked a friend of mine if he can do some weekends on his own diggers which he said he could, he will need paid of course unless you can hire some of your own diggers and drive them yourself? Will there be ample room for pitting? Can we camp there? Is there drainage for toilets? And....what tyres are best? |
