Winter Series 3 - Sunday 7 December
 

So its round three of our winter series this Sunday at EPR. The normal schedule applies with four rounds of qualifying and a final for all.

We are hopeful of some on-site catering for tea, coffee, bacon sandwiches and toast but this is yet to be confirmed. Of course any developments will be posted here.

Hope to see you on Sunday.

Also we'll try to let you know (and this may well be 11th hour stuff) what the parking/pitting arrangements will be for Sunday.

Unfortunately after all our hard efforts and care and consideration for the playing fields adjacent to the track some numbnut 'landscape gardeners' have, with the help of a tractor (and no doubt a ten gallon hat and spurs, if you get my drift!!!) during the wettest of weather last week turned the grass area next to the astro perimeter path into what resembles a ploughed field!

The LPS&SC groundstaff are attempting to make good the area this week but I saw the ruts were filled with water this morning so we may have to discuss a contingency arrangement with them and this may not happen until next Saturday AM.

So watch this space, we do not envisage this impacting on the actual hosting of this meetng, it might just affect how and where we pit.

This is your opportunity to get in some practice on one of the National venues for 2009!:)

I shall make my return after moving home!!!!!:thumbsup:

Have we got anything for a raffle???? I feel the need to liberate people of their money!!!:thumbsup:

"We" have not got anything at the moment...

What money? We're all skint. :woot:

Ill be there, what time does praccy start?

Practice from 8am with racing starting at 10am.

Depending upon the weather, we may start racing a little earlier like last time as we still ran a full meeting but reduced the downtime between rounds.

Good move Matt ill be there too with me 8th finger as mr stafford calls it lol

my dad might actually be bk in time after the news today :thumbsup:

Good luck Spud Man, I cant make it! :thumbdown: got to go to a 50th party. My new X6 will get a run at the next one!

This is good news!!!! Do you think he will be wearing his shorts????
We shall see on Sunday eh!!!!!:thumbsup: Brrrrrrrrrrr:woot:

dc is it allright to pit with you again this time.

Thinking about some alternative prizes for this weekend seeing as its Xmas...

Of course the winners of 2WD and 4WD classes will get a little something but top junior in each class, hardest trier, etc.

Prizes will be of the edible type seeing as it Christmas and stocks are low...

Hhhmm chocolate.:wub

Biggest air over the table! :thumbsup:

leading on nicely to..

Can you land it in/on race control! :woot:

Out of interest, which way round we going this week?

how about best snap of the day or most consectutive rolls

Please go anti clockwise, im crap going clockwise lol. :p

Last meeting was anti-clockwise but not decided on track yet.

I am all for a different layout every run...

...come on, it is Christmas!!!

But no signs of any caravan racing or balloons fitted to the backs of cars?

i could make a caravan for my car if you will run a sepcial race for them. but i dont want to be the only one doing it. baloons also sound like fun

Dont you worry...

Spend the time making your car reliable enough to last five minutes!

i dont need to for the losi. but its the driver need to be reliable

Mass starts off the line! :woot:

Of course...

When was the last time you came down, Ian? This is the second year of line starts! We were thinking of grid starts instead though so instead of two lines, maybe three or four!

plz plz plz run through the contrete sections not over them it hurts my brain :eh?: plus my dad still aint home , hes a cheeky git looks like the 9th of dec till he gets a flight home!!

gird starts sounds like a good idea. would we be startinmg on the main strait or on the normal start lines. i think we sould have a balloon races. everyone gets there baloons and the last one with a balloon wins.

bin there done that, got the t-shirt, i reckon a highest jump on the table top or long jump sounds pretty cool, during the race that is.
p.s i am referring to the ballon idea.

i think you should put charles sellotaped and gagged in the middle concrete section and everyone start on the edges of the track and play destruction derby! kill charles!!! :);0

Im with matt. I agree that we should do a different layout for each round but ballon race. No.

I know what savageman and cwislon are trying to do they are trying to make a contest that they mite win so they can get chocolate.

YYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEERRRRRRRRRR RR!!!!!
Now thats a smart idea.
I want to use the biggest, heaviest and hardest rc car i can find.:thumbsup::thumbsup:

Ive got cookies and ice cream to satisfy me, not bothered about winning.
Like the idea of diffrent layout for each race though.

Sod it lets use real cars,or even better STEAM ROLLERS!!(give the boy a chance!)

Umm, the national....:eh?: Thats pretty bad really considering im not that far away. Ill be at all the meetings from now on though, i hope. :D

Of course you can......if you do what Matt said!!!!:thumbsup:

A different layout every run sounds good to me!!!!!:thumbsup:

Different layout sounds good for each round, give it a go! And line starts!:thumbsup:

Don't forget to strap a fire work to is car!!

iF YOU BRING A FIREWORK ILL STRAP IT TO MINE LOL

That sounds sooooooo wrong!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!:o

STRAP IT TO MY CAR!!!!!!
NOT WHAT YOUR THINKING DAVE. LOL
