To be fair, I can see why someone might think that ex F1's shouldn't do them. This is in no way saying anything about whether you should or shouldn't have raced Nick, I'm just saying I can see where someone who would say then is coming from.

However Stan is completely different, he's just become really good and this is the first year he's chosen to do nationals and EOS finals to show it, it's completely differenent. Now he's proved he's good enough and got his F1 so he can't do them again, this is how the new rules work.

Amend to read: - At all National format events outdoors, tracks will be a minimum of 3 meters wide and 130 meters in length.
(Rationale: - the current minimum length of 100 meters is possibly OK for indoor events, but would result in lap times being too low at outdoor events).

wonder if this rule change will have any implications for applications?

I would like to see the rule changed about the width of the track trying to design a track that is technical and nice to drive hat is 3 meters wide is really really hard to do.

I think your too late to add to that list ash

Yup i know that chris i always think of stuff after its to late:(. I think it would be good to have say the first and second corner at least 3 meters wide for the mad dash into the first corner in finals. But i think it would posibly be better it it was 2.5 - 2.8 meters as just that extra 20 cm would push that corner in and make the track that little bit more tight and challenging.

so you think Kiddy, Bury Metro and Southport are not challenging? Stotfold - that place is hard...

they all seem to be find with the 3m rule??

you can submit a rule now, but I believe it will only be a topic for discussion, the rule can't be passed but it can be talked about.

Ashley I made the track 4m wide at some points at Coventry and you still went off:rolleyes: don't make it any harder for yourself than it already is.;)

No i prefer a tight track because that means i can run my 19 in my 2wd and i can drive so much better with that in but when there is such a long straight i loose so much time its mad. But if the corners are reallt tight i can carry alot of my speed into th corner meannig less braking and less acelerating meaning more smooth driving. And hopefully less crashing.

A

so what you are saying is that you want all national tracks to be just like your preferance?

No, can you make all the National tracks the kind where I go good on?????

Oh wait, i dont go good anywhere, hahahahahahahha

so who's actually going to attend the AGM and get a vote?
