Hey bud,

Correct, 3 rounds to qualify to be in with a 'chance' to make the top 10. Whether this is possible is purely down to the number of racers in each round and also your finishing position.

For arguements sake, if you just did 3 rounds and won each one with 90 points, I'm pretty sure you would make the top top 10, even with some or most racers points from 4 rounds.

Does that make sense??

Yeah it does make sense - but I would say the odds are against you.
I can only do 3 rounds so we will just have to wait and see !!
Looking forward to tonight - Hoping it will be dry.

Dudders 28-06-2011 11:32 AM

Agree with what you say but I needed to ensure that a 'national spec' driver couldnt turn up and win two rounds and be on pole for the final final, against people who have supported the series and club week in, week out. Could'nt think of a fairer way to do it to be honest.

More than happy to look at suggestions for 2012 if you have any bud :thumbsup:

Dudders 28-06-2011 04:37 PM

We're good to go!

No rain since 3.30pm and track a little moist but no worse than a very light dew.

See you at 6.30pm :thumbsup:

Thanks for the usual midweek racing fix Neil. Just a shame I forgot/haven't learnt how to drive...
Also, big-up to the Hatton's for helping me out with the losi ball stud. Top geezers! :)

Dudders 28-06-2011 09:42 PM

Thanks for a top night tonight guys, really enjoyed it. Could have down with out a complete printer failure :mad: but I think we muddled through, thanks for your patients on that!.

For you viewing pleasure, please see here for the results and laptimes. http://www.shrccc.co.uk/news.html

Well done to all drivers tonight, the A Final 2wd was very close in stages with some great battles all the way through the field :thumbsup:

Well done to Rob Hatton (2wd A) Alex Gardiner (2wd B) and Rob Elmes (4wd A).

Cheers for an excellent evening of racing Neil, perfect remedy for a day of office induced stress:thumbsup:

dobber 29-06-2011 07:14 AM

I thoroughly enjoyed it too, right up to the part where my 502x ploughed full chat into a B44 (hope th eB44 was ok?) Smashed front wishbone and lower part of the shock (plastic eye part) snapped too. Will hopwfully be back for next tuesday though. :thumbsup:

Chris and luke

Dr_UpGrade 29-06-2011 07:08 PM

Top night again Neil and Co... Don't worry about the printer cart thing, added to the whole mystery of the night!
:p

Seriously, had a good time, even the 'heckling' from race control about my marshalling and driving skills!!

Slowly getting the car to do what I want and making the set up changes in the right directions... Just hit a few 'new' bumps in the final, and on our track if yer not clean yer not first... Looking forward to next tues...

Dudders 29-06-2011 07:40 PM

Gotta have a heckle or two, all's fair in love and racing!

Went 'Tampering' today and ironed out a few divits named Mark :thumbsup: Nice and smoooooooth now :lol:

Dr_UpGrade 29-06-2011 07:45 PM

LOL to the divit names!

Dr_UpGrade 30-06-2011 05:16 PM

Neil,
Just had a look on the SHRCCC site and the finals for the shootout is now 9th Aug, not the 16th... When did that happen? (and why?). I probably am not in with a shout of making the top 10, but there's a slim chance... The only trouble is I'll be doing the transrockies mtb race that week so won't be able to attend!
:thumbdown:

When it was the 16th, it fitted in nicely as I fly back on the 15th... deal with the jetlag and then come and race... but now...:cry:

Any chance you can change it back? Or let me know why it got moved...

Thanks...

Dr_UpGrade 30-06-2011 05:20 PM

Hang on... it depends on which page you look at! Tues nite page says final on 9th aug. But shootout page says finals on 16th...:confused:

Can ya' clarify when you get a chance? Cheers Matey...

Dudders 30-06-2011 05:24 PM

Erm your right, just noticed that myself, you trying to make me look a fool! (dont say it!!!! :p)

Erm, yes right, erm.... I'll come back to you with which date it REALLY is later as mobile at the mo! :cry:

Dudders 03-07-2011 08:40 PM

Round 6 this coming Tuesday night. Gates open as per normal at 6.30pm with racing from 7.00pm.

No pre practice allowed until all racers have booked in. Booking in WILL close at 6.50pm, if you'll be late, let me know and I'll add you beforehand.
