Top tip!!! just after those gurt iron prison fence/gates there is a big bit of steel on a hrdraulic ram that comes out of the ground. Next to the steel is a sign that says 1 CAR AND TRAILER AT A TIME, do NOT ignore that sign. in fact sit there revi ng your engine as you wait as you have what seems like 3 seconds to get through before the ground rises and your car gets its ass kicked. and definately do not truy and follow someone through!!!!!! |

Definately a top tip for any visitors. I've not been to QMSC for 25 year, when I used to be a member, but I found the picture instantly recognisable. It's funny, I wouldn't be able to give someone directions to get there, although I could probably follow my nose and get there myself (provided the road layouts haven't changed significantly). Note to clubs with hard to find entrances; How about putting a picture link in on your directions webpage? Edited by Andymac |

Aren't there three clubs in that shot GRF? Do we get a point for each?
Edit: there's even possibly, in the far distance, a fourth? Edited by alstorer |
