I don't like the sound of that Chris. The track was available to use for prsctice as we finished the work on Saturday.
Do you have any idea who turned you away? Can I asume it was somebody at the main gate to the MX? |

| MX has nothing to do with us as far as events are concerned, and they have no right to not let anybody on. We have a good releationship with he MX so I'm not really sure what happened. I will investigate. |

| Getting back to track work, who can make it down on Sat afternoon? I can get a micro digger down for a couple of hours to make a start digging out the in fill area to help with drainage. I can be there for about 12.30 ish. |

This weekend is difficult for me Ian - we could do with a back hoe as well, our sump hole is still full of water and could do with enlarging for when it rains again.
We, like Dave need water for damping down before the big meets - getting the infield done his weekend will be useful if it rains next week - we can use the standing water from the hollows you dig to soak the track - might I suggest wherever you dig out, make sure you make one part deep enough as a sump to pump out from - if just you go down 12"(30cm) with a diameter of 12" we can drop a raw water pump in.... |

| On the same theme, are we going water and roll the track on the Saturday before the EMNORC. It will mean the track isn't that good for this coming week but at least it will be fresh for the EMNORC more importantly. |
