It's a rat cage! These little buggies are called 'Ratz on Acid' don't you know!? :thumbsup:

Chris Doughty 23-10-2008 04:02 PM

of the people that are booked in to race the national...

how many of you are planning to race on the Saturday night? it would be good if we got a rough idea of numbers...

Smartalec 23-10-2008 04:11 PM

Chris, how many of the FEATURES will be in place Saturday? Obviously I know that it will be completely different from the National track but i'm sure that some of them will take time to 'construct' so they will be there on Saturday right?

jim76 23-10-2008 04:12 PM

is the sat night going to be the national track? or just same features in different layout?
sorry, think that was mentioned elsewhere but couldn't remember

edit - think Alec just answered that!

Smartalec 23-10-2008 04:22 PM

I'm not 100 per cent sure but i'm pretty sure that some people practiced on the Leighton track on the Saturday when it was put out ..... perhaps Chris Hampson could put me right on that? ..... if that was the case then is there any reason at all that the whole National track could not be used for Saturday?. As Chris will verify, at one tenth off-road nationals there is no practice on the actual track 7 days prior to the event but I have no idea if that's the case with the micro's !!!!

frogger 23-10-2008 05:13 PM

The track will be completely different to the national track and although some of the jumps etc. will be used nothing will in any way remotely resemble the national track. Don't forget on Sat nights we also have 4 cell and micro tourers racing so it will probably be a flat-ish track with just a few bumps here and there so that we can remove and replace it quickly and easily after the heats.

We have our own keys to the facility so we have 24hr access. We can be there early Sun morning to build stuff.

Smartalec 23-10-2008 05:27 PM

WOW, a flat Wycombe track ....... it will look like they've had a burglary LOL :p

Smartalec 23-10-2008 05:29 PM

I was there Saturday night til late and no car was allowed on the track - sorry Alec.

Ill be at Wycombe for Saturday night.

Chris Doughty 24-10-2008 08:10 AM

I would like to point out again, just to be clear...

the Sat night track will not be the national layout, it will obviously use the same carpet, possibly a jump from the national track, but probably most of the non-national jumps

its just an opertunity to get a 'feel' for the venue and the levels of grip

frogger 24-10-2008 08:47 AM

And an opportunity for more racing! :thumbsup:

As I said, I wasn't 100 per cent sure, so glad that's been cleared up by Chris :)

frogger 24-10-2008 10:05 PM

55+3 entries = 58!!! :thumbsup:
