Does any one know if St Ives on-road is still running at night anymore . If yes when?

Dragonfire · 04-09-2003, 03:08 AM

I belive they run friday nights now, tho the doghair makes the trip not worthy... try castle hill or eastwood for a more enjoyable club meet

Yes, the dog hair gets extremely annoying. It gets EVERYWHERE!!

Well the web site says every 2nd and 4th Wednesday of the month, but last time I went to have a look, no one was there!

Even though my driving skills are still developing, I found that track dissapointing and the racing etiquette pathetic.

could i race a v one s nitro there? it is 1/10th scale onroad, or dont they like nitros?

Deane,

They probably won't like yourself or your crap NITRO !

Maybe the doghairs are gone but its still a small track (very very very small). It is still a fun place to race tho, only $5 for three 5min races. this is THE place to develop your cars traction. If it sticks here, it will stick anywhere.. it is a long way for most drivers tho i belive..

St. Ives track is very small and very tight track, its good to develop your driving skills there. Must tell you some of the toughest drivers in sydney in the past originally came from the St. Ives club wont mention any name not unless i need too

But they race every friday nights now, and off road days still are on also sundays although i do not know what the days are.

I used to race at St Ives off road.. if ur car sticks there.. and u get alright tirewear..well then ur car will go anywhere! its like driving on a giant rock! i would get like one meeting out of proline M2 compound tires.. that was a while ago mind you.. around 3-4 years.

What time is the race start? I'm interested in it. I try a few times in Castle Hill but I find it to far from the city.

zoombie · 04-14-2003, 05:15 PM
