Junkman Posted March 25, 2018 Share Posted March 25, 2018 Dear friends, The first significant motorsports event of the year is drawing close. We decided to finally make this a fully fledged Autoshite event, with several people already having signalled interest. The details are as follows: 28th April 2018 - 15:30 Chesterton Stadium – Loomer Road Chesterton, Staffordshire, ST5 7LB We could meet beforehand for a sophisticated reduction of the inner diameter of our cardiovascular veins at the: Hungry Horse - Chatterley Whitfield Carsington Drive Brindley Village Tunstall, Staffordshire, ST6 5GA The suggested meeting time is 13:00, then set off to the racetrack at about 14:30, which would give us sufficient time to check out the sophisticated*,carefully* prepared racing bolides in all their pre race glory*. The event is notable for its all round friendly, fun and laid back atmosphere, so bring your mini yous along.

primeradoner Posted March 31, 2018 Share Posted March 31, 2018 Just updating this. We have been allocated our heats and the final car tally is 178 under litres and 105 over 2 litres Its going to be a busy night! We are in the first heat of the night so usual scenario for us is, go out, wreck car and watch the rest of the meeting.
