Ooooh!!! Like the sound of this one.

Really enjoyed last years, might be the first outing for the new cars:thumbsup:

I take it there will be an AMB system running? I can't put the usual ones in a xx4 :lol:

The lap counting will be done using AMB system. It can pick up personal transponders and there will also be the chargable handout transponders.

This looks awesome!! Im definetly in :woot:

Yay! Can't wait, entry sent! :thumbsup:

Pidge text me about this the other day. May well get involved.

Si

my entries are in :thumbsup:

Amazing meeting last year, count me in again:thumbsup::thumbsup:

MK Racing GP 2008
 

Thanks for the feedback so far. Just thought I would post up some more details of the meeting.

The driver entry will be capped at 80 for both days.
There will be no booking in on the day unless the limit has not been reached and then it will be a 1st come, 1st served basis.
If you want to attend then pre book is the only guarantee.
There will be 10 heats of 8 cars for qualifying.
1 round of timed practice then 4 rounds of qualifying using the FTD format.
Finals will consist of 10 cars with the 'A' finalists having 3 legs.
We will post a preliminary heat list on Thursday 13th November.
Racing will start at 9am Saturday morning. There will be no delays as there is a lot of racing to get through.
As mentioned above the timing will be AMB so please make sure you enter you correct PT number on the form and all other information is correct as making changes on the day takes time. Handout transponders will also be available so don't panic!!
Some details may be subject to change but we hope that things will all work out and run smooth. :thumbsup:
If you have any further questions then please post or send me a PM.

Rob.

Just booked Jordan in for both days, enjoyed last year so much........only question, 80 drivers, will there be enough room for pitting in the hall.

There's enough room if people pit in a sensible manner. Last year we didn't really use the sides of the hall.

Do I take it reading the details on the Newbury web-site, that we need a 12v battery to charge from, or is 240v available?

240V is available, Rob will be sorting this :thumbsup:, if you bring a 12v, it needs to be in a container (Landlord's rule)

Marc

240v is fine by me :thumbsup:, I'd only have to buy a 12v if it was the only option.

Rob.

Mine may need adjusting, says i run a xxx cr in 2 + 4 wd :p

will i be able to take advantage of the "arrive & drive" sevice & just turn up with a transmitter or do i actually need to bring my own stuff? :)

Sorry mate that was kind of a 1 off just to get you interested again :thumbsup:

Think it worked tho. No damage also, only a front tower all nite!! ;)

OK it's not like me, but I'm doing a little advanced planning and looking at hotels.

Hotel info is on the newbury website.

oh yeah, sorry to anyone who crashed over the doule to the right of the rostrum in their finals on friday night. i think i may have made the gap a foot or so wider when i did some track repairs after qualifying LOL :woot:

I'm on holiday

Gutted :(

(Not at been on holiday, but at not being able to race)

So we have a Burger Van sorted for both days to supply food and drink. He is a cool guy and his food is always of an excellent standard. :thumbsup:

Just so that you know, the entry fee is £10.00 per class.
Payment is to be made when you book in on the day.

Entries are looking very good at the moment with 50% full for both days.
