Hi guys, I am just starting to get into nitro offroad and have purchased a thunder tiger MTA 4 s28. Where do I go or who do I contact regarding membership? I would also like to help with the track cleanup.

The track is surprisingly not too bad.
2 medium puddles on the main straight, small puddle after the berm heading back towards the sweeping corner.
Grass is growing like mad around the track & on all the corners - that's prob what's soaking up the water.
Lots of 'rain made' drainage trenches though.
The driveway in from the gate & the track car park is flooded more than the track!
If the rain stops and we get some sun, it could almost dry up with a 'puddle sweep' tomorrow... 'IF'

we'll wait and see what happens ,all the reports on msn say sunny with chance of showers ? who the F*&$K knows, play it by ear, I might get down there on wednesday about 6ish after work to give the remaining standing water a sweep away so it gives it a chance to dry out again for the weekend ?

Ethan came down yesterday after work & removed the conveyor belt for the pit lane stand, shovelled out all the mud/dirt/rubbish & re-aligned the belt and fixed it back on.

Yesterday was a good day, Kezza & ethan came down, we cleaned out underneath the pit stand (cage), removed a heap of rocks from around the front fence line, wippersniped and mowed.
Ethan bought his ride on down and blitz'd the entire paddock around the clubs boundary.
Today Kezza & Pete hit up track maintenance by repairing major holes and removing water etc smoothing out clay that had been "jumped" in by unknowns, smoothing out some kickers and lead ups on the major jumps.
Pete also measured up our power box for repairs he is taking charge on to enhance functionality and spruce the place up.
Dragan was organising the canteen and having discussions about current progress with us all.
Ethan brought his gerny down and removed all the graffiti off the canteen and surrounds.
He also organised a new padlock for the front gate (vehicle access) as we need to keep it closed for council regulations.
He had the lock 'keyed' to the current member issued keys so every current member that has a key can also access the front gate now.
Ethan & I will be there tomorrow, anyone keen to come lend a hand or just have a drive, see you there..... (official working bees will be posted shortly)

The stand storage had a clean out. Ethan removed the graffiti off the canteen & gave it some fresh paint. The stand is a work in progress. Dave (snoopy), ethan & I had 3 wippersnippers goin this morning. ;D Dragan (senator) cleaned out the canteen with dave, ethan set up the bbq & with Toms help - cooked a feed for all. We set up the loop for the timing system & a couple of the guys had a run to check what sort of pace can be made with the current track condition. Pete (sc10cletus) did relentless track work and marshaled for the guys all day without having a drive Big thanks to ethan for shouting us all lunch + putting up a massive effort & quite a significant amount of time and financial input. Cheers to all the fellas for helping out
