Everyone who wants to get going again meet as above.
We have a venue in place and possibly a track (give us a bell John!)
New club stucture ideas, more details and your input needed.

Hi,

I'm local to the area (Bexhill) and race at Roedale in Brighton. If you need
some help, get in touch as I could do with a project to get my teeth into.

Best wishes,

Martin

To get us up and running again we are going to need to get some organisation
sorted out for the club.

We need people to to actually help and do things to get us all racing again.

We need funding ideas and action to get some money in get going again.
We need to look into getting more members to help out with building the new
track etc.

If you have some time and are serious then lets get this ball rolling and  the
sooner this happens the sooner we can enjoy racing.

The next step is going to be to set up a commity of some sort with treasurer,
secretary etc then we can open an account for the club and start fund raising.

We may have foud a better place as well to site the club pendig further
discussions.

So if you want to help, contact me and lets actually ALL work together to set up
a great new track and relauch this club.

Chris

There is a meeting sunday at 7pm at the mermaid on bexhill seafront regarding
setting up the club again, everyone welcome, and anyone new or interested in
helping in anyway come along as well.

Chris

Its a bit late but happy new year.
A couple of people have expressed interest in setting up the club again.

We have use of a hall, and it has been suggested by a former member
that a MDF circuit is made which could be set up quickly and easily and
would be better than home type track.

Any thoughts would be good on this would be good and we can guage if it
will be worth setting it up.

Also a drag racing strip has been suggested to run modified 1/32 scale
scaextric or custom built stuff on.

Mardave racing will start on MONDAY 26th at 7pm.
The venue is All Saints church hall, Sidley, Bexhill.
All welcome, if your car isn't ready (or you still need to get one) you
can come along to watch!
(or count laps for us!)
See you there
