pre SVA shake down

Is there anywhere in Aberdeenshire that I can take my MAC#1 for a sort of shake down drive prior to SVA?

I have been up and down our small cul-de-sac but can't get out of second gear, I need a old airfield or a long private road????





Why do they call Port Harcourt "The Garden City"?...... Becauase they can't spell Stramash.

The Aberdeen exhibition centre car park

I've messed around there loads of times doing drifts etc etc and no one has ever said a word. Used non road legal bikes there too, no issues, gates close at night though. They do skid training, learner driving there also

If you want a laugh you can (legally) get on the beach at Newburgh golf coarse (best after its been raining to keep the blown sand down) you can easily hit 80mph all the way to Bridge of Don.

Once the Falcons on the road again I've promised missy we're going to take it on the beach and have a nice picnic

Good idea Mr Whippy! Although I'd probably get the tide tables wrong and end up calling the RNLI!

I also found out that the short track at Alford can be exclusively hired out for £43.70 between 10-11am on weekdays.



Lap length 0.41 km 0.25 miles
Width 6 m
Straights 183 m
Corner radius 15 m

Do you or anyone in the area have a car trailor I can use for some beer tokens?

5-mile garage at Westhill / Kingswell hire a good trailer for I think £25 a day, used it about 4 times now. Afford track would be fine, certainly will put the car through its paces

That looks ace!

Where is it exactly?

How did you hear about that? I'd love to have a blat round a small track like that for a few quid. Anyone know of a similar one in the NW?
