We have a good track planned with some interesting features to make for a good day's racing.

Hey Timmy,
Sorry dude, not going to be able to make it this weekend.

Sorry.:(

Tim Ward 17-06-2008 09:04 AM

Shame Tel! Never mind - keep an eye out for the next one if all goes well.

Weather not looking good at the moment for the weekend but sunshine all next week from Monday. Lets hope the rain passes over quicker than expexcted so Sunday can be brill! Am looking forward to this!:thumbsup: Whats the track gonna be like? I know its a grass track but will there be any features?

Tim Ward 20-06-2008 07:06 PM

Weather forecast has not been accurate all week for Newark area - often 8 to 12 hours out! So fingers crossed.

Track is short grass (cut it today) with some small 'flip/flop' jumps and one double/table top/drop off feature on the back straight.

Laid it out today and had a run - seems good to us!

Grip was high and the view from the rostrum good.

There is a cut through direct to Gainsborough Road from the race track to save walking/driving up Woodlands.:thumbsup:

For those who want refreshments on the day there are filling stations on the A1/A46/A17 roundabout and on the A1/A46 Newark roundabout there is a McDonalds and a KFC. The pub will be serving Sunday lunches!!!! It's a good pub but likes to see itself as 'fine dining'!!

See map for relative location of McD's and KFC...

gazoff 21-06-2008 07:52 PM

Should I get out of bed ?
 
I am not booked in , would this a problem ?

I will be running 2wd , any idea on numbers for this event ?

Will it rain ? :eh?:

Tim Ward 21-06-2008 09:37 PM

Pre-booking not necessary at all! It's just a 'for fun' meeting - the pre-booking was just to gauge the demand!!

Please - anyone who wants to race just turn up - racing starts at around 10am so you have time to visit McDonalds on your way!

The weather front has been moving more quickly than previously thought - chance of rain now no more than 20% :thumbsup:

Looking forward to it - drag everyone you know along!
