You club needs you!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Our numbers have dwindled, our position now parlous.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Some have succumbed to the winter malaise and others distracted by offers of food, wine, song and free accommodation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We stand besieged by those from the Rovers, some may be Topless and others of the Clubbie kind. And we know not what of the warriors of the MGCC or if indeed those of AHOC Clan upon the hallowed track may appear.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We need you to step forth like never before so we can stand as one, united in a single cause, bonded by a marque.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I have, myself, full confidence that if all do their duty, if nothing is neglected, and if the best arrangements are made, as they are being made, we shall prove ourselves able to defend our club honour and set a standard of slot car team racing that will be the stories of legend.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We need you. Your club needs you\u2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2026 to come and have a Day at the Races tomorrow at Scalex World in Ridgehaven as the Sprite Club brings back an old winter favourite \u2013 slot car racing!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As advertised, the main event is a \u2018Le Mans\u2019 style teams race but that doesn\u2019t mean you don\u2019t come if you don\u2019t have a team or just want to have a day reliving the joy of slot cars.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

So come one, come all and see the Sprites fly around the track!<\/p>\n\n\n

\n

Track will open at 0900 and practice will start at 1000. The \u2018race\u2019 will kick off at 1100 and the number of rounds will depend entirely on how many teams we get on the day. We are already down a couple of people in the \u2018teams\u2019 due to a mix of the flu (and one who decided a bed and breakfast in a vineyard was better than slot car racing \u2013 seriously?) so we have some teams who may be looking for a fourth member and we have racing room for another team or two if you can find three mates or just see who is there tomorrow and join in with the fun.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

And, for those who love a good coffee, head out to the Rezz for a coffee or breakfast with the Clubbies crew at 0900 before we head across to Scalex World for 10am!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

$20 per head gets you track hire, a car and a controller!<\/p>\n\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
