Are you gonna be rebuilding the track in line with the original track drawing on the website? 

That'd be great, proper old school track -spin to win!!

We start monday. Tight budget so really hoping when it was built in the 80s that they didn't do it with old builders rubble like it would appear - hope theres some decent dirt under there.

Hope to see some new and old faces down there when stuff is done, first task will be to raise a few quid to tarmac the berms, no one loves the wakka!

I'll make sure there's a table for Moley  :coolsmiley: And a 31 foot double so i can nail it for Clark and Kent (see Fastlane issue 4)  :angel:

Actually, I'm doing this with a broken thumb from the trails, so that might have to wait a while  :'(

Will try to use this thread to throw some build pics up along the way if we get time. Should be up there for about 4 weeks.
