Yea had a walk down on Saturday red shale down on 7/8 ths of the track, and from the viewing banks it feels like you are floating over the track, has great potential !!  If it is then it gives a lot of time for the shale to bed down.

Is it next year that the track opens up?

As previously said on these pages they are hoping to run some open meetings this year, been penciled in for a under 15 round, then hopefully a full league the following year. A lot will depend on weather/finance

Well not at Northside it will be Siloth Sea Washed Grass all round and in the centre green... supplied and laid by Cumbria Turf... I even caught Captain Comet planting trees and saplings last week round the outside... hopefully it will all look very natural once it's done...

What will the car park arrangements be like? Will it be next to the track, or will it involve walk to the track.

Right next to the track and there should be enough room to fit 200/250 cars on it (as long as the track doesn't get any bigger) and there will be an overspill car park for around 500 vehicles within 500 metres then within another 1000 metres there will be another couple of hundred spaces so the last problem anyone should have is with parking.

Hopefully the only travelers will be fans from miles around coming to witness the rebirth of the comets :D

There may be someone living there full time... possibly...

Steve Lawson is there that much he's just about living there now...

Couldn't make it up... only in Cumbria...
