:blink: :angry: just like to say about a few rumours ive heard re the track :teehee: the track being raced on at the moment is not going to be the open track.we are doing the track now its taken 1oo tonnes of sub soil to level of rough at finish end,going to take at least another 20 tonnes top soil and we are going to turf the track rather than seed it t make sure it be ready alot sooner.so as you can imagine alot of time and money is being put in to this track and to hear rumours about track is not good gets right up my nose when some are putting alot of time and money to make it right.so to them spreading the rumours ill say do one of 3 things if it bothers you that much option 1 put youre hand in youre pcket and chip in option 2 get down and help with the work or option 3 just do nothing and shut youre mouths till its ready then judge it :thumbsup:
 
well said Chris

and well done to all those at the club for all the hard work they are putting in sure it is going to be a great success have every faith in you :thumbsup:
 
Don't listen to em chris , keep up the good work & if folk was as good at helping as they was at shit stirring you would have it done in a day (w00t)
 
well said mate there is some as###es in this sport best thing is get rid :thumbsup: :thumbsup: :thumbsup:
 
I have heard the rumours going around .. One simple answer is for these peeps JUST DONT RUN

Same shit just another day , kinda pisses you off a bit
 
In all fairness for people such as us racers down in the South of England we can only go by what other people

say, and we assume they are telling the truth and that they have been to the track. Obviously in this case it is another story and perhaps the people who have passed remarks were not aware of the hard work that is going on.

If it's not possible for a racer to get to a new track then you can only go by what other racers tell people, but now that this information is on K9 people can judge for themselves.

Best of luck with all your hard work

We all know that whoever is doing the job of spreading rumours,wouldn't have the bottle to say it to your face.It's much easier to say it behind your back :wacko: Whoever it is Chris,you know like we all do,that they will be there to run on the track once you've slaved your guts out getting it ready :- Keep up the great work. :thumbsup:
 
What never ceases to amaze me is that so many people in this hobby keep saying how its such a shame that we dont have the number of tracks to run on these days, but the self same people are so quick to pull down a perfectly good track. We have been lucky enough to get the use of these facilities with the support of the committee of the Social Club and locals who themselves have bent over backwards to help us and which enthusiasm I personally cannot remember seeing anywhere else in a long long time.

We are running on a perfectly good track at the moment but it was good to see whippet club members working together with the Shirebrook Staff on improving what we already have for bigger events, thank you to these people for putting in the time and effort. As for the few who seem intent on pulling tracks down just remember there aren't that many left (and a perfect one i yet have to find) but if you don't like a track thats fine don't run on it. The people that have been running and are enjoying racing with us see you next week, everyone welcome :)
 
Keep good work up you got nice set up and with Chris and manton crew behind it be one of best venue for whippet racing :thumbsup:
 
its simple really anyone who dosnt like any track dont bother running on it keep up the good work chris and co :thumbsup:
