the club is new and we feel has a very strong base of members thankyou for your support in getting things off the ground and a big thankyou for your contributions towards the banner, and whilst i am thanking people i must say a big thankyou to Alex Webber (argos stig ) for all his hard work on the forum it looks brill!!! Also i have been writing to companies all across the world and have had a few positive responses and some nice little discounts for you all.
The first meet on jan 31st looks to be a good one as people from other clubs are coming to see what we are all about ( and weigh up the competition i feel) we have a few people coming along to try to qualify so heres hoping the weather improves, if not its too the greasy spoon we go.
And Finally i will take this chance to wish you all a very Merry Chrimbo and a fun filled Happy racing New year
