DRAYCOTE DASH - 19/20th November (UK)
For those looking for training rather than racing the 19/20th November at Oxford SC is also our first of 6 WINTER TRAINING weekends. We have top coaches signed up and these weekends are open to all RS Aeros. There are charter boats available too which makes this a great way to try out the RS Aero with full support and assistance readily on hand. Either book for the series, an individual weekend or day.

It is a similar format to our recent End of Seasons - several PY races on Saturday followed by a big Pursuit Race on sunday.
