OH MY GOD,

What a rediculous decision, I'm almost not sure I can be arsed either, will Damo as well?

We never ran sealed can motors at any kind of level other than beginer back in 1990 so why hold everyone back now?

:( :( :( :(

Batley vintage series???

Not cleared yet with Dianne but I'm sure she won't mind. 19t motors I think :)

Stu 27-10-2007 11:51 AM

Damian will only go with the 19t.

We may still be able to get what we want, it just needs some 'Driver-Power'.

Move to Batley, Ok if needed, need to get some dates & details from Dianne.

There is also Teeside ACES, Stewart has already said we can have a heat(s) of our own.

Southport GP on Feb 10th?

Hello, thanks for the text G!

We were running 18T singles in my RC10 in 1986!

Are we worrying about nothing here?

My suggestion is thus.

As it is a club meeting, who is going to scrutineer the cars? Nobody did last year, the Vintage heat was run in "the true spirit" whereby we each made sure each others cars were OK.

Are you actually suggesting that the club can afford to lose around 8 lots of fees?

As long as all the drivers in the vintage series agree, I honestly don't see who is going to enforce the rule??

What are they going to do, throw me out??

Who is enforcing the rule, G??

Northy 27-10-2007 12:19 PM

The decision was taken as a committee, I was for 19turn, but was in the miniority.

I'm not sure what to do, but I'd still like to run at York.

G

WHITTLER555 27-10-2007 12:22 PM

So my question is,

Who is going to enforce the rule?

Which person do we need to speak to?

I have never seen any car be scrutineered at a York club night.

Stu 27-10-2007 12:26 PM

We'll talk tomorrow.

Northy 27-10-2007 12:26 PM

I suppose the committee will enforce the rule, as there was a little talk about some of the 540 class cars actually being 'very fast' for a 540, and they are going to start random checks or something.

I'm affraid I can't comment to much as i AM a committee member :eh?::eh?:

G

Northy 27-10-2007 12:28 PM

And btw, I think Stingers Rock! :p:p:p:p:p:p:p

I'm sure you'll have a lot to say tomorrow though - :rolleyes:

Northy 27-10-2007 12:31 PM

I actually just want to race, and have both types of motor, so am not that arsed.

It was still fun last year with the Stingers.

PS Stu, I have your t-shirt :cool:

G

WHITTLER555 27-10-2007 12:32 PM

It can't be a secret who is on the committee!

Are they going to be racing in the Vintage series?

If so then I can see they have a vested interest.

Northy 27-10-2007 12:35 PM

And how many of them will be racing in the vintage :mad:

super__dan 28-10-2007 07:00 PM

Medders,

We had a chat today and are all still going next week, hopefully Vermin will be sorting us out and everything will be OK.

If not I'm keen to run vintage at Batley.

Vintage at Batley sounds a great idea ;)

Col 29-10-2007 06:01 PM

Stuff the commitee lads, just agree between yourselfs and run whatever you like. Only G on the commitee is racing vintage anyway

Chrislong 29-10-2007 06:26 PM

I thought I heard Mike Riley and Phil were joining in with the Vintage capers, I could be wrong, but thats 3 committee members including Northy.

Im not racing in it, but agree with Damo. What can they do? If they tell you not to book in, then book in as 4wd and get Vermin to put each of your abilities to 1 (as a one-off) and therefore you'll have your own heat, and the vintage heat empty. You may have to score it yourselves to call it a series, but that can be done on paper can't it?

Too many rules?

Im dieing to see Stu's XLS smoke around. :D

Chris

Stu 29-10-2007 07:01 PM

We will do that.

To be honest I would have liked to have seen two vintage heats anyway; one 19t heat and the other a 'slow' motor heat for proper old-skool cars.

Jim thinks it may be an XL, rather than an XLS. He may be wrong, but he's not often wrong.
