Woodee 4 Posted February 23, 2014 I will attend some of those... even if I don't have my bike to ride. Need my speedway fix! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ride n Slide Dayz 2012 14 Posted March 4, 2014 It is with the utmost disappointment that we have been informed that there will be no Dragons events taking place at the Old Gun Site , Sittingbourne for the foreseeable future. This is a situation that has arisen and is beyond our control, to say that we are devastated is the biggest understatement ever but we now have no choice but to press on. We are looking into the possibility of holding events elsewhere and will inform via this forum if anything should prove successful. Many thanks for your support, Russ and Cookie.

ManxGaz 5 Posted March 4, 2014 Such a shame when we were so close to starting the season. Lets hope an alternative is found soon and wherever that may be I am sure you will have continued support. I for one appreciate all the hard work that goes on behind the scenes so that we have the opportunity to ride our bikes. Good luck to Russ, Julie and Cookie. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ride n Slide Dayz 2012 14 Posted March 17, 2014 (edited) It is now just under two weeks until the Dragons Amateur Speedway Club kicks off its 2014 campaign at the Norfolk Arena, King's Lynn on Sunday 30th March with a 1pm start. As usual for a first event of the year this will be a Practice/Training event with the Clubs' Training instructors on hand to help with anything you need to get yourself back in the swing after the winter break. These events always prove extremely popular with heaps of track time available so if you wish to join us then please book in with Julie Tutton on 01633 858899 or 07920 002785. With all of the problems we have experienced of late the Club is now going full steam ahead into the new season, some we hope to see you on Sunday week.

the muck man 11 Posted April 24, 2014 do yous provide a day lisence or do you need your own. what are the classes and do you require new reg silencer? thanks Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ManxGaz 5 Posted April 25, 2014 I have recently joined the Dragons but rode on a day licence last year, so I assume you can still do this. Normally you are allocated to group or team of similar riding ability so no one is out of their comfort zone. Not 100% sure about the silencer regs but recommend you speak to Julie Tutton on the number above. Meetings are very well run and you will be made welcome, always a friendly atmosphere. Hope this helps. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
