You need a faster server, if you're going to post vids like that
Why no airtime??

Whoa I didnt realise it was that slow. It's a T1 server.

T1 is the type of connection. It could have a real fast connection but a slow server. I can get it in 30 min.

RE: Now let's talk loose tracks ( VIDEO too)
 
Oh and it's a Cisco sever. My error I wasnt thinking when I said T1.

That makes it worse. What we need is some serious rain. Might move it to Florida.

Good idea Grahama, we've got sooooo much ridiculous rain the passed few months that we are barely finishing races, much les starting them. And all the ones we are starting we are having plenty of rain delays throughout the day. You dont want none of Fla. The region 4 championships this weekend went great- we almost got rained out, full of rain delays. Had to shorten all the mains just to make it through the day.

Yeah Skyline, Can we have our rain back please? I aint used to it being dry in the UK.

The dont believe in airtime in Europe- They like those rally cross style tracks. Flat and big. We like Big Air in the states.

Actually thats one of the more "supercross" style tracks in the uk most are pretty flat with just natural lumps and bumps. moat are on grass too rather than loose dirt which usually means lots of grip roll when its dry. this is our track its coming along ok seeing as we only started at this site a few months ago all thats left is the rostrum and a few mor jumps .

Isn't a pain to have to cut the grass??
or do you just let the cows loose during the week?

One of the members who lives close usally goes up there on a saurday and uses the farmers sit down mower only problem is the grass cuttings they get everwhere which means lots of cleaning in between races. hers a pic of the full layout from the fiel opposite

That's just a beutiful spot to go play in

Here we live in the Richest country on earth and this is what the closest track to me looks like
Just doesn't make sense, Oh well, that's life in the big city
