Europe Large tarmac track Medway Kent UK

[Absolute RC noob]

Hi all, I've been using a local large tarmac RC track that has been abandoned for a while. Its on military land off a disused road in Chattenden Kent. Its in reasonable condition, probably best with 1/5 nitro due to its size but well worth a visit if you're in Kent or surrounding areas

ME3 8NQ will get you to the roundabout where there is ample parking

Hey, how smooth is the tarmac? Like average car park smooth or better? Wondering if it’d be suitable for a drift RC

It's not great as it's disused but perfectly use able, the layout is great for drifting, worth a look if you're local

Dam….looking for a different location. I have a great jump spot on dartford Heath but it’s a bit small so need some more range to let rip but with jumps…!!
Ps: killer looking Typhon…!!!

Not really tbh, I prefer more on road

A place I want to try is the mountain bike trails up at Bluebell hill Maidstone and Lordswood side of the M2 at Bluebell hill

The problem down there is its all military land so most of it is fenced off, worth a look tho if you're local?

Bexley so not too far…!! Will have to take a look when I can get a decent amount of time out…

I need to take a trip up there. There's no tracks in London for 1/5 scale si that looks perfect for a little racing
