A bunch of like-minded hobbyists will be enjoying more time on the rocks with toy trucks! You’re welcome to join us to run some courses and just hang out down in Newhaven on the last Saturday of June.
Your safety is your responsibility!
We’ll be on public land and just driving toy trucks together. This is not any kind of official event. Rocks can be slippery. It’s cold and possibly wet. If you have a child and/or pet with you, their supervision and safety is completely your responsibility. Please be careful!
This will be the first time we use the electronic scoring system. It’s fast and easy to use on a phone browser and means we can keep track of multiple courses at once. That means more driving!
