EP4200's, aka 'fire-crackers', aka them red and black cells :D

G

It would be silly not to - but lets see.

I'll be using the firecrackers, it's all i got!

Me 2, Iv got 2 new sets as of last week :cool:.

Can someone confirm that they are deffo ok??

are u on crack

Even if you are allowed to run the "fire-crackers" just remember there's no guarantee they'll allow them at the Indoor Finals in March. As they aren't fully legal until April 1st.

Any way to find out sleigh? won't bother entering if i'll be turned away due to a date :rolleyes:

Already on the case. I know in past years at Indoor finals, certain cells have been allowed even though they weren't legal until the April. I think it was at the Worcester meeting a few years back, and it went to a vote if I remember correctly (although I've had a few pints and the memory is a little hazy)

Nice one ! :)

Right here's your answer Paul. It's what I thought and not good for you.


The Indoor Finals will be run strictly to the homologation lists.

So NO "Fire-Crackers", GP4600's, Epic 4200's, Sintered brushless, etc...

Leave them in your box until April.

sorry mate but this doesn"r make any sense at all :o

Cheers Phil, it's much appreciated. Looks like i'll be having a week off, or hitting outdoors early!

:( :( :( :( Are all your IB's dead Jim?

G

The majority are, but for the fact of a date restriction i'll miss the event.

Still, Batley supercup tommorrow! i'm looking forward to it now. in the process of getting me gear together and readying my cells.

What are peoples predictions for their placings?

Can we use 'fire crackers' tomorrow? :confused:

G

i thought it was run to BRCA "current" rules!!
ie no sintered, no lipo, only things on the list!

I hope not as I need to run with my Gp cells and the firecrackers, Can someone please clarify??:(

Mark, don't bring that crap up again, seriously.

There's been no word on scruitineering tommorrow. Last year there wasn't any, but im sure one of the batley boys can verify what the crack is.

Mark, it is not a BRCA event, so they can choose to run to whatever rules they want.

G

I was there today laying the track and I heard them saying it is being run to BRCA rules therefore there will be no LIPO cells or any other non BRCA legal equipment allowed

Ok Guys. Tomorrow, we will not be scrutineering. We are running to BRCA rules, and the trust will be on the drivers to abide by these rules. We simply don't want to be checking what NiMH cells, and which motor everyone is running. Its 5 mins indoor with slippy floor and obstacles, there is only so much power you can actually use;).
If anyone is flagrantly flouting those rules to gain an ADVANTAGE we may well have to take action, but I hope common sense and driver honesty will prevent it ever getting to this stage.



Please feel free to read between the lines

Thanks for clearing it up for everyone john! See you early morning tommorrow.

clear as mud then

not brining anything up other than whats been said on here, run to BRCA rules
i know but its been said its run to brca rules

as above and my point!

mark, take the hint what John (oscar) said.. and let it fly.........

Tommorrow will be a fun day, and i gurantee nothing will be spoken of about who has an advantage, as on the track batley provides, the only advantage is the pair of thumbs on the sticks.

Just take it as a loose BRCA rules. I honestly don't think will be a problem then.

yup i am and i fully understand its a fun thing over anything else.
i wont be running my maba (in the spirit of the meeting) ,but as has been said id gain no advantage from doing so, same as if i ran lipo, i aint got the fingers and thumbs to go faster no matter what gear you give me :-)
talking of lipo jimmy come see me tomorrow and take ur lipo pack, got somin to show you.
paul if u need i can loan you for the day 5 packs 4200! no matter what u have ull still woop my but, i enjoy off road over my other classes as its fun and relaxed!
sometimes i may come over wrong in my posts, its not intentional!

Sense prevails at last,
Best emigrate quick Jim, that sort of thing seems to be out of sorts in this country of late.....

Why thank you john

You arent on MSN, so I'l ask on here - whats the thickest shock oil you have? this Keen Hawk is gonna be awful if I can't slow the shocks down some more. :(

Mark, you really need to take extra chill pills. The rest of us understood the rules yonks ago.
