i think silverstone buggy club run race night there on tuesdays. currently no micro class as far as i know, but perhaps they would start one if enough people.

I currently looking for a venue to hold indoor off road meetings in Milton Keynes. I would also consider Buckingham as an option, however i'm not sure on the availability of queens hall in Buckingham, or if there are any oither venues in Buckingham that would be suitable.

However, if you can get enough people I'll be happy to run micro meetings.

There has been talk of Moto Arena doing a race night for Micro's, this is already being looked into so if people keep posting of interest then it gives them a good reason to start asap. It would most probably be a Thurs or Fri night.

Any news? I'm up in Market Harborough and regularly attend Tuesday nights at Silverstone. I've built a couple of Losi Mini T based Exotec buggies for me and my lad and am itching to have a go with them.

were hoping to have a heat of the micro nationals over that area of the country again this year,

The Ardent round last year was awesome, keep an eye for official announcements soon.

Bedford don't run 1/18 anymore on Fridays. Well disappointed - was all set to go this week - contacted the club - discovered they don't.

Back to where to run locally!!!

Any news? Is this related to the 1/10 off road venue at Junc 15 (from the Silverstone thread)?

I'm just finalising things with the venue, building ramps and filling hose with gravel. I hope to hold the 1st meeting late august/early September on a Wednesday evening.

The track will be suitable for 1/10 off road and micro's. If there's enough interest in micro's then I will look to run a separate meeting on another evening.

I do attend the Silverstone meetings but this is something I'm doing on my own.

Thanks

Matt

especially as I wont be there for the next few weeks. Hopefully house move will be done by end of September.

Have to say the losi 2wd has got me wanting one. Looks wicked if a little tricky.
