See you all Sunday :thumbsup:

Chris

Great stuff looking forward to this one. Can you tell me will there be the ability to charge batteries etc as I don't have a generator?

RoyalCBR, there isn't usually any power provision at Broxtowe. Most use generators or their car battery?
Cheers Nigel.

I'll bring a spare 12v ou can borrow mate, I can bring another spare if needed for anyone else just ask

Cheers fellas, I will get the lipos charged just in case.

So apparantly we are racing on possibly grass at Broxtowe?

this should be interesting? :woot:

There wont be any grass if its wet. Just on the astro. :thumbsup:

Do you want me to bring a spare 12v for you to borrow CBR?

Quoi?..

Well it's positively pissing it down here at the moment. Cannot ruddy believe it.. Things are gonna be interesting over the weekend

Testing for the end of season finals then :D

Yes please that would be great - thanks. Sorry to sound like a plum but how would I connect my charger to it - I think I have some crocodile clips - would they work?

Cheers, Mark

Yep crocodile clips will work, I'll be under the green and white gazebo and with the Hirt course with a black and white cow shell

Short course, silly predictive text

Cheers, I will see you there :)

Tracks still good despite a little mild rain today. Tomorrow should be better. See you all there.

Ladies and gentlemen I present the cheapest over body on the market

Thats Asda price

Trucks rule!:thumbsup: First time as a dirty trucker today and loved it. Team C rules!

Don't go there Dan it's a dark place :lol:.

Did ya win Dan :thumbsup:

No! :thumbdown: But enjoyed racing a truck and was really suprised how good it handled. :thumbsup:

wernt far off though were you dan :thumbsup:

Far enough!:cry:

Well done Jon. Great results in both classes. Dominator!!!'m:thumbsup:

It was my first time at the Nationals today and only the second time I've raced a truck - but heck it was HOOT.

I really liked the relaxed atomosphere and friendly racing. Appologies to those I got in the way of as I struggled to learn not to push my truck like a buggy.

I might even consider the next round - but it's a long, long way from Southport.

Great event, well done to all the guys at the Broxtowe club for hosting a smooth (and rain free) event :thumbsup:

Would like to say a massive thanks to the guys from A1 racing club (Will, Dave and Rob) plus of course the Telstar SC regulars - roll on the next round :woot:

Surley a bin bag would have been more suitable for your car Will :lol:

Cracking day yesterday close racing throughout the day, in both qualifying and finals. Got into second place in all three finals and then binned it :blush:

Cracking result for Team C with 5 cars in the A final :thumbsup:

Poor Will's truck went through all sorts over the course of the day - but it did look much better in the finals.

Oh and thanks for the body post support Robbie, my super glue techniques weren't working.

Plus on that note I would like to add (I might be wrong), but also a Team C/Ansmann result in the B Final with a 1-2 and a 2nd in the C Final as well!

Ha ha very funny rob, I suffered from a electric headache all day

You were lucky I had broken one the week before hence I had a spare :thumbsup:

Yeah Rocket Roger Pearson won the B final and yourself second :thumbsup:

First time for me with a truck at broxtowe, absolutely loved it:thumbsup: good atmosphere and friendly bunch, in particular just want to say thanks to the guy who took the time to explain why my sc10 4x4 had started making a clicking noise, think i over heard someone call him jim? so thanks jim:thumbsup: if i'm right and apologies if i'm wrong:lol: but thanks very much all the same.

Anybody got any pictures to upload... I'm sure I saw a few cameras snapping away ?

Here you go the pics from my camera, mostly taken by Rolf...

Looks like there are some up on ukshortcourse :thumbsup:

ah.. To slow..

Nice shots there Rolf :thumbsup:

Andy was waving his camera around all day whilst his hired out 4WD chassis was kicking everyones ass so there will be hundreds more pics on their way :thumbsup:

Glad you enjoyed it dude... dirty truckin' rules!

gonna have to start checking for these alleged 'Team C' kit boxes... think their owners are denying the true identity or Jono is paying very well :p

George the bearded dragon likes my asda price ese

Excellent weekends racing on a superb track, thanks Broxtowe boys!

My only complaint would be of the 3 drivers who cheated in round 3 of the 2wd A final. Cutting through the pull off section and missing the middle of the track is un-acceptable. I know SC racing is fun and not über serious but when people cheat it puts a downer on the people in the race who are playing by the rules and have paid a lot of money to be their and puts the results into disrepute. This was reported to the race director on the day but I am not sure what was done about it?
