Camping is OK on the Friday night, I think Dianne is coming down to the track to get hold of the key for the toilets (running track ones) then will sort out where it's being kept.

Thanks in advance to anyone that can lend a hand tonight, I'm sure by tomorrow morning everything will be fine. If people decide to actually lay the track tonight, can someone tell either Graham or myself so G doesn't have to get there quite so early tomorrow!

We under ordered on the plywood for the top of the rostrum and so have a 8'*5' gap. Unforuantly the only size they do in that 18mm stuff we've used is 8'*4' so we've had to buy 2 boards and will need to cut one to a 1 foot wide, 8 foot long strip. If anyone has a powertool (young man) to help do this, PLEASE bring it a long as it will be a mare by hand!

Oh and another thing, the mover that pulls itself along gives the better cut and picks up more grass so better to use that one if possible (I'm being quite fussy here for someone that can't even come tonight ;) )

Dan we'll lay the track in the morning if you want.

Im sure me, Chris Bell and David Pack, and possibly my girlfriend (though it is her birthday today) will be lending a hand tonight, providing we can do it with drinks in hand.

On another note - if Sarah (my girlfriend) looks a little down, its because on her birthday, I've taken her camping to a model car meeting, and invited her to do the gardening on the track. I know how to spoil a lady. :)

I bet she's well pleased. I take Julie away most weekends to some really nice places around the country, but she doesn't seem to appreciate it :(

Anyway, if you guys (and gals) want to make sure the grass is nice and short, with no loose stuff hiding in the bottom, and the straight and banked corner is clean of weeds and sh*t, then I will try my best to lay out a legendary 2wd track first thing Saturday morning :D :D :D

Eveyone's a winner then!!!!

Again in advance thanks everyone for elnding a hand!

Skate Park

were abouts is this in realtion to the track / car parking?

It's just behind the sports centre, in-sight of the rostrum.

what time we need to be there??

would it be ok to book in to batley tomorrow as the brca site wont let me do it. :confused:

yes, no problem

No batley racing for me :(
 

Good luck to everyone going to the batley regional tomorrow, and it's great to hear the track is being repaired. My aplogies for not getting involved, or racing this weekend. It's a long story, but my missus has given birth to our twins this week, in Cumbria.... hence, no racing for me at my home track.

Hopefully i'll be racing again some time this century... Until then i'll be 'lurking' on Oople every now and again to keep up with whats hot, and what's not. Have fun people.

Andy.

congratulations Andy!!!! :)

Many congratulations Andy, I hear Dan is an excellent nam for a boy!!! ;)

Chris

Funny you should mention that - Dan is high on our list if "it's" a boy. Does he get pro race tuition from SuperDan if the name is chosen?;)

Congrats Andy. Hope all goes well

Awwh, congrats Andy! Hope the babies and Mum are well!

Have you decided on names?

Congrats Andy.....;)

Cheers everyone.

The twins are both well (both boys), they will be in hospital for a good few days yet as they were quite early, and Jayne had to have a 'sunroof' birth, ouch.

Names are Charlie and Seth.
