Click once on Night_Rider to reveal the project details.

Click a second time on Night_Rider to highlight your selection.

When you have made your selection, click the "Have your say" button at the bottom of the page.

I'd be gratreful if you could pass this on to anyone who you think would be willing to support the Club's grant application.

The panel meets on Monday 21st September to decide which projects will be submitted to the Office of Criminal Justice Reform on the 30th September.

So we need people to register quickly!

Most of the track is there now so hopefully they wont need 180k to rectify Horticon's fookups!!

Make sure the jumps have some landing transitions.   Move jumps closer to the berms.   

Make it a little faster with better corners.   3rd berm layout was a joke from the pro section!!   The last straight was okay apart from the last rythym was deeper and shorter than the ones before it!!   It always caught someone out.

I enjoyed it the 2nd time I raced there.

Even Preston took a while after Horticon fook ups too!!  :(

After they have sorted the track out they need to sort out the drainage problems between the the track and the footy pitch too.    T'was muddy as fook at both entrances to the track!!

Good luck to 'em!!  :daumenhoch:

Missed the deadline for the vote - how did it go?

The track looks decent enough on youtube, maybe a few wee tweaks; I'm looking forward to the Northern Winter race there in Nov, as will a few more Titans who'll be making the trip down South

We have been shortlisted.  thank you to everybody that voted.
This funding is not track or even sport related - its about sustainability.

The track itself does need some work - but I prefer to call it 'challenging'.  However I dont blame Horticon directly - its a long story all about personal agendas of people not even inviolved with our club!!
We have a plan to fix it - and it is only a few changes needed , but currently we are locked into the usual 12 months no alterations thing.  Good news is the flood lights are now running as of yesterday so the 10 week re-development project is now finally finshed after 18 months. Another 12 months and we should finally have what we originally wanted.

Thanks again

Ian

JT is an optimist.   Even at that stage he thought he could save it!!  :LolLolLolLol:

.............Another 12 months and we should finally have what we originally wanted.

I quite enjoyed the track the last time I raced.  Even that speed bump at the start wasn't so severe.

A few tweaks here and there and it will be top notch.   :daumenhoch:

Parking needs sorting though.   Having the cars parked on the main road was a right ball-ache!!   :(
