Looks like we're all in the same boat. I live in Stoke-on-Trent and its all indoor (yawn) electric here.
Hey, maybe we could all get together one day in the summer and find a track, have a BBQ, some beers etc? What do you think?

sounds like a plan....me and a mate both have EB4's. When the weather sorts itself out we'll have to meet up for a beer and a race

Well I'm here most days (a good diversion from work!!) I@m not sure where everyone is in the country so we'd have to find somewhere pretty central.
Lets see if we can generate some interest. I'm not sure how many brits there are on the part of the site, or how old they are (transport issues etc) but I'm sure we can sort something out for late July early August.
Should I stick a new thread up?
PM me for my e-mail address.

I am moving to the U.K. late this summer. Everything I find is indoors.

I have:
2 Nitro TMaxx 2.5
1 Nitro TC3
1 OFNA Nitro Hyper 7 PBS

I want to bash my trucks outside. Where does everyone go?
