Best of luck guys, a 1/8th and nitro track down our way has been a long time coming.
Well done to those behind the scenes who put in all the hard work with the council.

This will be a 1/8 nitro and EP track. Should be no problems with neighbors as the land is surrounded by industrial. There has been a lot of time and work getting to this point, just cant wait to start building the track.

Not sure if anything is happening with the 1/10 track, that is a different club to us.

Was good to meet people at land today. Thanks for coming down.
Once we have details as to when we can start laying dirt to build track I'll post update.

This is good news cant wait to finally have somewhere to go, hope the track isn't going to be too big, some tracks i've been to make it hard to even hear or see your car at the far end

Just an update for you all. We are waiting for the rain to go away before we can source some soil. It's been too wet for any major excavations and the soil has to come from an approve dig. We have a few companies lined up, ready and waiting. Unfortunately we just have to sit tight and wait patiently. Hopefully not for long.

Hi All

Just want to let you know that we are still working behind the scenes to get this track up and running. I cant believe the amount of paperwork, time and phone calls involved.

Does anyone have contact with businesses around the Knox area in general that can help with the free supply of clean clay and machinery as our contacts so far have not been able to help yet. We have had several times already where the clay they have is what we need but due to free dump sites being closer to there job site where not able to supply it to us.
Also fencing materials (pine poles, star pickets etc). I have a couple of quotes that are about to go to council to see for they can help with funding the fence.

If anyone does have contact details could you please PM them to me or post here.

We will get there.
Thanks
Col.

Does it need to be fenced before you can proceed?
