    I know there is the on-road club in St-Anns park in dublin but is there any off road clubs or reglar meets on the north side? i took the specter to the track in st anns as they have removed the bar from across the track but it'd be alot more fun with more people using other off road buggies and trucks.

    Theres an off road track in Lucan. But its more a buggy rack, I think its too small for trucks. Maybe you should go and have a look, and talk to the lads there.

    BTW, took her out on the ramp today and busted:

    front body post
    engine mount
    spur gear
    rear bumper mount
    exhaust header

    Just finished fixing and ready to go again.:D

    Marley looks great in photos.
    But it is not without problems.
    There is a packed semi loose gravel surface which is hard on models.
    Not all of it is in direct line of sight from one standing place.

    Well worth a look at. It has it's good points.
    You should try it and see.
    But there are other places too.
