I think 3 times this year.........King of the Castle, Maxxis British Championship and Vets MXdN.  The fields are returned to pasture condition after each event.  I would say that Dave King and his crew are working on the area as we speak (or type), clearing up after the round of the British Championships.

Sorry, a week ahead of myself.  The Maxxis Championships are on next weekend, and then Dave and crew will move in to have the area regrassed and smoothed out for the Vets.

I am riding the vets class at the british championships nest weekend 15 august so i will be inspecting the track condition lap per lap.  Up until this year farleigh was only ever used 2 times a year,   3 times this year is hardly overuse.   


I have a very special entrance planned for dave thorpe/eric geboers and jeff leisk...............    Dont think its ever been done before at a motocross........   cant wait.

Oh and a certain painter Rob Kinsey took it on himself before the 2009 event to write and distribute to his american chums an  e mail saying how crap the event would be. And for his american chums to stay away from my our event.    What a tosser!!!! 
What's Kinsey's beef? Talk about shitting in your own nest ::). The meeting will be just fine without having to spend money on a shitload of prima donnas doing it for appearance money. At least you'll know that thise who do race want to be there. I wish I could be there.

kinseys a prime cock,  always was,  always will be.
