the lap counting equipment tells you how you are improving your driving and car setup, and yes you need to race others to hone your driving skills and achieve the lap times of the fast guys,(like rob west,dave belsten and craig) can put in, but it`s annoying when people shout `lapping` every time they come up behind another car especially on parts of the track where there`s no room to give way.
thats my 10 pence worth anyway.

Looking forward to next friday, :thumbsup:

Not to put a downer on Friday night but there are a few points I would like to raise.

2wds….some love please
I know every one in 2wd is in the same boat but when the tracks are nothing more than tight 180 into tight 180 there is no flow to the laps…that’s the small little rant over –

Second thing is the jumps….
These jumps with long sweepers into half a straight run ups ate OTT in my book, with the jumps laid out in this way you have two choices- go slow and get smashed from behind or commit to the jump and pray you make the line.
I’m sorry bit Friday I refused to marshal the jump area. giving there was a gap between the wall and the jump it was a surprise no one got hurt while in the death gap fetching a crashed car.

Last thing, im really happy you guys have a disability ramp and rostrum, but can we make sure there are no blind bends for our “On wheels” racers 

It needs to remain fun, not sure I have ever shouted lapping on a friday night and my opinion of people that do, is that they are taking it way too seriously, relax and share the love :wub

mrspeedy 11-07-2011 02:15 PM

I don't think I have ever shouted lapping if I've been lucky enough to be in that position ...

On friday I found the best way to clear a backmarker was to nail it over the huge triple jump and land on top of the offending car :thumbsup:

Seemed to sort the problem out :D
