Think that's where I found the info......

When it pulled away, there was a stretch of sand that was 'broken' by the engine pulse, then a 'clean' bit, etc etc (the sort of "fires every lampost" scenario, cept in 1st gear, if you get the drift........  Roll Eyes)

On top of the goodie bag, there was also a small (nominal 3" square plinth) 'trophy' for the riders.

Just think- in years to come you'll be able to say "Yeah, I rode at the first one". That's pretty cool!

Looks like marshals are required for 2014- anyone interested?


Found this on the PLRC page.

https://www.facebook.com/pages/Pendine-Landspeed-Racing-Club/166621133481919?fref=ts

Pendine Landspeed Racing Club  14 August.

OK-if you raced with us in june,your race number is your membership number and carries on with you, over to next year.if you don,t compete or re-new membership for three years,your number will be up for grabs on a first come first served basis.
 We are due a meeting soon to discuss membership and allocate some jobs within the club structure.
 If you like what we are doing and think you could add to our happy band please get in touch-we need more people willing to get stuck in-way too many of our treasured marshals are building racebikes!
 which only compounds the excitement this club feel at bringing LSR a broader appeal.
