I am not up to speed on this venue, is it sort of Eastway and when is iit opening?

Looks like there are a couple of decent pedal car type tracks there as well though.
Racing is life...
Anything which happens before or afterwards is just standing around waiting to race....

It appears already to be open, as a chap in another forum wot I frequent has had the dubious pleasure of testing the track's adhesion and found that, at the hairpin, it's 26.5 mph (Vittoria Diamante at 110 psi).

Excellent! If the lowest, tighest corner of the indy circuit is much the same, that could be a huge amount of fun in a pedalcar!

I am having some trouble getting to Hog Hill, I can get there at 12:00 earliest.

I read that the AGM has in the past been held before the racing, could this be considered for this year too?

We're still trying to get a room sorted out for the AGM at the moment...
It's unusual for our races to get going before 11:30 so I guess as long as you are in Race 2 (or 3) you should be fine...
We did talk about doing the AGM before racing last year but we were worried that most people would be too busy getting their bikes ready and warming up etc...
