Hey, Heffron Park! Thats where I first started racing! Two friends and I would get out there with our gas cars and run all day. We had the best fun. I'd be in if it was run during the week and I could get there after work or uni.

Are people thinking Electric, Nitro or whatever?

Rhes4 02-10-2003 01:24 AM

I will come too.

Hi guys.. I live in Maroubra and i actually race at Northside Forestville which is past Chatswood cause theres no club in our area.. So this is really cool.. However, I've been to heffron as i dont live far away frm there and i race electrics, however the surface there just chews up ur tyres and get small rocks in your gears..

Any other venues.. I have heard some ppl of a night race there cars at Eastgardens Shopping centre.. Surface is much smoother there/. But again theres the security issue..

Recon
 
The eastgardens venue sounds good, i might do a recon this afternoon for a possible location there and i even might go for a chat with the centre management if i get the time...Anyways i'll keep you posted..
Cheers
Al.

When do u guys think if we do have a muck around race what day will be?

teamsherman 02-10-2003 06:33 PM

????
 
Nothing can be set up yet, i need to confirm a location and get some track setup equipment and that sort of gear, but as i said, i will keep everyone posted. As for a muck around day, i can try and organise something within the next 2-4 weeks...
Cheers,
Al.

gabe 02-10-2003 07:06 PM

Cool Al where about are u located. Do u have transport?

teamsherman 02-12-2003 12:14 AM

Yeah ive got transport Gabe, i am at Randwick....

Samma3l 02-12-2003 12:56 AM

Hey Al. Tait here. The Randwick area should be good, I can ask the security about using the washpoint area up the back. The only thing that would be a pain is the extensive sweep of the area to clear the small rocks out of the way.

Darkman 02-12-2003 02:01 PM

howdy folks.... i run at Moorebank and Eastern Creek but I also go to Heffron Park and even Moore Park and run my RC... I was at Moore Park last weekend playing basketball but at the same time running my RC... but let me know if you need help... :nod:

teamsherman 02-13-2003 04:24 PM

numbers
 
If anyone is interested, including your mates, can you send me your names (and your mates, or how many mates are interested) to [email protected] so i can get this ball rolling.....
Cheers,
Al.

Did anything end up happening with racing in the eastern suburbs? Living in the east can make it hard to get to races during the week. (i work on sundays).


Heffron park is a good space but it chews through tyres incredibly quickly and has alot of dirt/stones on it.

veecee 12-30-2003 09:31 PM

Yeh agreed that a track eastside would be awesome. However if this new track at Tempe takes off, then it is just a 15 minute journey across Gardeners Rd which is not a bad option either...

bleach1 12-30-2003 10:31 PM

yeah that is a good location for people in the east.

BagofSkill 12-30-2003 11:57 PM

did I miss something?

New track at Tempe?

veecee 12-31-2003 04:24 PM

check the "venue of venues" thread which appears to be a new track at tempe
