Hi Lads,

Same here, I got 2 emails about the venue but no email about the WRI?

From what I see from Google Maps it looks fine. I can't make the meeting today.

Please post up details or email them out to members, cost etc.


All the best

Kevin

please pm me your email that you use often and i can include you on the list for the wri 2012

thanks

I got the email about Winter Race Ireland.
Shame guys, but understandable. Really sorry this wont go ahead though.

Can I advise to make a big announcment about this on oOple.
This Ireland thread is not enough.
Alot of UK racers were looking information on Winter Race Ireland when I was at oOple race and the sooner that is got to them, the better the Irish reputation for quality & professionalism remains.

Cheers for the efforts, lets hope something can be got for 2013. :)

....

Still never got an email after pming a guy on here and didnt no there wasnt a winter race until i saw this need a better way to organise imo

....

The DMCC did not want it put up on here UNTIL We HAD A VENUE

It was put up by someone without the approval or knowledge of the committee

It was to AVOID exactly this happening making it look badly organised on our behalf

Really? But the official "sticky" thread on here was started by someone called "Winter Race Ireland" and signed by the DMCC committee?!
Seems official to me.
Not muck raking, just trying to clear up the confusion. :/

Pity it's not going ahead, but it's not easy to get a suitable indoor venue.


Meangombine, you need to be more subtle in your trolling and at least pretend you have a clue what you're talking about in order for it to work. Otherwise you just look like an idiot. Must try harder. h0m3sy is doing a much better effort :lol:

I have nothing constructive to say, so will remain quiet.

Work has started
 

Hi Lads,

The DMCC have a new winter venue. Here's some short clips & pics of the initial setup work.

As a side note the driver of the tractor who delivered the astro turf estimated we had about 8 tons of stuff:woot:

Thanks to everyone who turned up last night.

I was amazed at how much was done in the short space of time.

The astro is down, images attached. Just needs a good hover and a brush off and it will be ready for track laying.

MiCk B. :-)

Looking promising guys, well done!
Cant wait to get a run round it :)

It looks great, its only when you are there you realise how big it is, and I think with the way the astro is layed the track will easily be as good if not better than the previous indoor track.

Couldn't make it down yesterday to help, had other stuff to do. Can do next monday.
Place looks great though!

hi all we are hoping to organise next monday 17th as the next work day on the track

there is a small amount of astro to be moved then assemble the rostrum and build the barriers

after that the jumps

we need to move the white pipe from lucan after round 4 rccaoi this sunday

see you then

What time do you need bodies on Monday?

Hi guys it's been a while I hope to get back into action soon were is the new indoor venue? Cheers Eoin

It's about 1km from Naul village. Place looks great, was up there yesterday and it's really taking shape. It'll easily be as good as the last place, probably better!
The track area is slightly narrower, but a good bit longer. Still work to be done, but the hard stuff is over, all the astroturf is in place.
Fair play to Graham for getting the place! Nice timing too, just as it's getting cold!

Place is really looking great. Well laid out and no space wasted.
Fair play to all the lads who have set it up so far.
Cant wait for racing to start there!

looking good lads

Fair play to the lads(you know who you are) who put in a momentous effort today laying out and cleaning the track + sorting out the pit area.

Graham's design for all the jumps worked out great, he pre-made a giant jigsaw puzzle and it all went together perfectly.

All the jumps are modular and we can change the jump configuration very quickly, very clever :D

I had a very quick spin around the track, its quite tricky and technical and good fun :D

Sorry no pics I was too knackard at the end of a long day :cry:

Fair play to all the lads for the fantastic work put in yesterday and over the last few weeks. Place really looks great. Took a couple of pics from the rostrum to give you an idea of how it looks.

Looks great. Well done lads:thumbsup:
Between moving house and college assignments though i will be lucky to get up before xmas :cry:

Great first days racing.
the track is very tight and challenging and jumps seem to work fine.
all credit to those who could do the work
Great achievement for such a short time WELL DONE ALL

Racing as usual will be next week from 10.00am

all those who race ELECTRIC cars come and have a look at the venue

all welcome

....

Track looks great :drool:
Can't wait to try it out on Sunday!
Well done to all the lads that put in the hours making it, I was busy all last week so didn't get a chance to do much.

Are all the guys sorted for a lift out on Sunday ? Tony,Paul ,Simon?
If not give me a call or PM & we should be able to sort something out.
Looking fwd to sunday ,What time anyone.
