June 9th - Rd 2 of Summer Series supported by Schumacher Racing
 

Don't forget round 2 of the very popular TORCH Summer Series supported by Schumacher Racing is this Sunday 9th June.

Details on sticky at top of forum.

All very welcome and hopefully good weather will continue. :)

No need to pre-book.

Cheers

Rob

I'll be there:o

Was thinking of coming down for this, would I be OK to run the ZX-5 with Hobbywing Electrics and Turnigy batteries?

Hi

Yes, as long as the batteries are hardcase, then all ok. It is only at regionals and other BRCA sanctioned events like the EOS F2/Vets/Juniors in Sept that the batteries need to be on the BRCA list.

We are running control tyres though - either Schumacher or Ballastic mini-spikes in any compound on rear axle. Can see why anyone would want to run anything else anyway!!

Hope to see you there.

Rob

Thanks Rob and yes, they're hardcase so no worries.

I have new schuey yellows, ballistic whites/greens and the weather is looking good (shhh) so should be a good day!

So looking forward to this meeting, seems ages since we've had a super sunny relaxed all day meeting at Torch.
Sign me up for both classes as usual, hope my partner in crime is joining me?

How else is up for some summer fun this weekend?

Cheers,
James.

Evening all

I'm looking forward to getting some racing in at torch this Sunday after being at so many regionals and nationals, will be good to get some torch action.

Weather is looking favourable and we can look forward to seeing Grant Fribbens usual shorts to blind us all :thumbsup:

With some more track work Saturday improving facilities and making the venue better bit by bit :thumbsup:

Usual meeting with top 3 prizes for all finals and trophies for top 2 in juniors, hopefully see some more youngsters come this Sunday with the build up to the F2's, vets and juniors in August/September.

I see there is a bit of interest in trucks this Sunday, so if your interested and we can get 6+ attending we will run a heat.

Looking forward to seeing you all

Post if your coming :-)

Me and Tom will be there. Any more juniors to give Tom a race?

Shall be there and really enjoying getting back into racing after what seemed like ages away. Lets hope the weather stays with us so we can enjoy some really good relaxed racing. :thumbsup:

Do I take it that there will be food/burger van available?

Hopefully Chris will confirm shortly.

Will be there Sunday running 4wd, just awaiting confrmation of burger van!
Looking forward to it and new track layout.

Hope to be there giving the 2wd another outing.

ill be there running 4wd , would love to run 2wd aswell but my skills wont let me !!

Weather is looking great but just right fir three classes! But unfortunately I am unable to make it on Sunday. Hope you all have a great time with loads of grip. Sorry to let you down James!

That's a shame Grant, what about you Mr Townsend?

Now the dust has settled a bit and subject to getting enough time to prep before the weekend (and find everything amongst the chaos) I should be there. It's been so long can't remember which way to hold the transmitter :D

Currently looking like 20 degrees and sunny all day :thumbsup:

Normal TORCH Summer Series format of as much racing as we can get into the day so hopefully 4 qualifying rounds plus 3 finals for all:thumbsup::thumbsup:

No excuses, tell your family you have to work and come racing. You'll only regret it otherwise:D

Rob

You got a pass out then Rob?

Are there any shops attending?

Hadn't realised ot was this weekend Mr Barker but I will try and get a pass out tonight.

Hmm 2 AND 4WD might be tempted to take on the craziness in Grant's absence.

:wtf:

Mark

I shall be there (thanks this weekend to Richard Roberts chauffeuring services:lol:). 2wd with the Cougar I think, could be tempted to patch up the Lazer and double class it, but really I'm getting to old for that kind of madness.

Should be a cracker anyways round, especially with the track being in the best form ever at the moment. Bring it on!

Access denied. Have to be R3 :thumbdown: see you guys there.

I've already booked the time for R3, just hoping that Steve books the sunshine :thumbsup:

Thanks Shaun but I will be coming down in the Camper on Sunday, full family outing:thumbsup:

Look forward to seeing on sunny Sunday.

James.

Any shops going to be there Sunday? ordered a ally servo horn for my cougar sv2 as the plastic one stripped last Sunday, as of yet it hasn't turned up.
If it doesn't turn up i wont be able race
Robin

Hi Robin

Think it will only be Steve selling tyres/inserts.

However I am 99% sure the SV2 servo horn is the same on the K1 so I'll either have a spare one or have one on my car you can borrow for the day depending on what servo you are running. I'm running 2WD so won't need it on Sunday.

Rob

Cheers Rob, i need a Futaba one (25t i think) i am hopping it will be here in time well fingers crossed

Robin,

I have a spare ally servo arm that would suit your needs, you are more than welcome to borrow it on Sunday.

I will be pitting next to my dark red VW Camper.

James.

Hi James,
That's very kind of you but thankfully I got home to a package on the door mat, so all set for Sunday.
See you there
Robin

Burger van confirmed this weekend

Chris

Any chance we could arrange an ice cream van to come Sunday? Would be to cool us down on Sunday :thumbsup:

wouldn't know any local ones but can search the net and see what i can find?
