There is a runway day at Woodbridge, Ipswich

It is not as long as Bruntingthorpe, but thought it might be of interest to those that live in the vicinity.

I will try and get more of us on the next VMAX at Bruntingthorpe.

Noel,

Not much info on the link. Have you any info on the venue? Hwo would it compare to B'thorpe? What distance do they measure? Are they static or rolling starts?

regards, Paul

Bruntingthorpe looks slightly longer, and I'm guessing Woodbridge will be a standing start rather than coming onto the main straight at about 70mph.
Woodbridge is measuring at 1.5 miles - I reckon Brunters do theirs at around 1.6.
£60 is a lot cheaper than Bruntingthorpe - I would come up but have a wedding.
