Well the potential is there. Now we just need the support of the club membership to turn it into reality!

Trust me people this has the potential to go all the way to the top if thats what we want, the whole site is in excess of 12 acres, although the track will only take up a very small part of this.

But as Jon has stated it,s up to the FORCC members to decide weather this is what they want.

So please have your say on here or have a chat with us on wendesday if you find that better for you.

Kind regards

Alan

Great news indeed!!!
Know you've been looking for some time and now the hard work can begin.
Knowing the club as I do I'm sure you'll get the support you need and deserve.

Obviously anything you need to ask in terms of BRCA you know where to go..........DC!
And myself of course!

To start with have you any ideas what surface you are going to have?

So if your club members say yes, how long till work starts and even more important when do you think we can get racing???
I like the idea of astro, all weather and all that!!!
But before you start I hope you will consider all the tracks in the UK and what works best, a multi different layout style track is best I think!

The possibilities are huge of where a club like this could go!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Again


GOOD JOB!!!!!!!!!!!!!

This'll make 3 or possibly 4 permanent tracks in the same county!!!
Good Job!

Will try and get down to talk in the next week or so.
You're obviously we'll versed in track design, would recommend getting a BRCA Handbook out and carefully scrutinising that for guidelines and we (EPR) would, I sure, be more than willing to share what we've learnt in the last three years or so!

Indeed - a positive reaction. No denying it's going to be hard work getting the site ready, but without a doubt will be totally worthwhile when it's done.

We're open to ideas and suggestions on all aspects - not just the track. We're looking at the pits, rostrum and facilities (i.e. toilets) too. We're keen to hear from "people who know people" as well - just like Jordan above. We're going to need assistance from all areas to get this off the ground and keep it there

I am kinda in the building business, and I will help out where ever possible!!!

I think a astro track(all weather) and kinda Stotfold-ish, which is multiple lay out possibility.

But I have many contacts in the building industry, lets get it done!!!
