So What? Should we not run our meeting?
We know it clashes with other races and the fact that is clashes makes no difference to us whatsoever. It's amazing sometimes meetings do clash with others - yet they still go ahead.

We are just advertising the fact we have our annual Easter Egg meeting on Easter Sunday. Not everybody is racing at the NEO or Kidderminster, and they may like to know about another meeting somewhere else.

If you go tohttp://www.srcc.co.uk
the info is there.
:thumbsup:

Chrislong 06-04-2009 02:54 PM

Unusual I know, but I haven't been paying attention. Now I realise the deadline for booking in has passed but I am really looking forward to doing the easter egg regardless of it clashing with stuff :lol: "call the press"

Any chance of accepting late entry, or am I okay to just turn up on the day?

Tom3012 06-04-2009 02:56 PM

If you mean late netry for the easter egg, just turn up and book in as normal...

I havent booked in for it :lol:

I can't find a start time or anything?

RSharpy 06-04-2009 03:01 PM

Yep, could do with a start time too. Might make the trip over if its not to much of an early start. And i'll bring my own egg :D

sly 06-04-2009 05:01 PM

Burgers answer below\/

burgie 06-04-2009 05:08 PM

Yes, you can just turn up on the day and book-in.

The purpose of the pre-booking was to to attempt to gauge the need for eggs - it didn't work so back to square one!

Booking in will start at 10.30am and racing will start at 11.30am. approximately. :lol:

The SRCC canteen will be there - I think Jez said a while back he will be coming with his shop, and there will be plenty of easter eggs in attendance too.

Personally, I wish the NEO would move their meeting, because we have had an Easter Egg Race every Easter for years - they are new to this game! :p

RSharpy 06-04-2009 05:19 PM

Cheers chaps, how many rounds & finals will you be running? whats your predicted finish time?

I am aiming for a 5 o'clock finish
open practice after you have booked in followed by 4 round of qualifying
plus 1 final for everyone.
Anyone who intends to come and their details are not on our data base, you can email them to me [email protected]
This should speed thing up at booking in

I've booked in online although I know I can just turn up!! Looking forward to getting the CAT on the track again and just to race outdoors in general!!

Mossy 07-04-2009 08:33 AM

danDanEFC 07-04-2009 08:40 AM

I will be running my truck Jay along with Garry

Mossy 07-04-2009 08:43 AM

normally, the tracks only open for practice once the track has been laid, but i could be wrong, i'm sure Burgie or Dan W will post on here to let you know

cAptainslow 08-04-2009 04:56 PM

Does anyone know if there is a shop at southport on Sunday, I know Jez cant make it. Im in desperate need of a spur and im hoping there will be someone there who will be able to sort me out?! Damned Easter post!!

Im taking part in a destruction test of the cat, after one outing I have managed to test and break the majority of components and I am anticipating thoroughly (crash) testing the remainder:cry: !

Cheers.

If Jez is not coming then there is no trackside shop.

Speedy Models in Preston have a guy who brings stuff down to the track if you pre-order.

MikePimlott 08-04-2009 05:40 PM

Dont the guys from EA models sometimes race at southport ? might be worth a call to them aswell ???

And if Simon Moss and Chris Long are going maybe they'll be able to help out :thumbsup:

cAptainslow 08-04-2009 06:49 PM

Cheers, well if anyone is going who might be able to help then I have some genuine Earth pounds which I would be willing to exchange for an 83 spur:thumbsup:

Thanks again,
cAp'

quincey 08-04-2009 07:28 PM

im going,but we've got no spurs for the cat sx and ive been told that schumacher are stocktaking so we couldnt get one in time+ive got tyres on order with them and i aint got them either:cry: just wondering if plastic wheels will grip on astro? hmmmmm...........

DanW 08-04-2009 07:31 PM

Can you fit a b4 spur if you use AE slipper pads?

So I believe with a bit of adjustment, I think I may have to give it a miss, at least it will give me some time to get a box of spares for the car.

Cheers anyway.

I'm pretty sure someone could sell you one at the meeting, there'll be a few cats racing, so i'd imagine there'll be spares knocking about, or put an ad in the wanted section, maybe you'll get lucky

RSharpy 08-04-2009 08:24 PM

Have got plenty of CAT spur gears Captain, come and find me Sunday morning :)

Chrislong 08-04-2009 08:27 PM

I have spare spurs, we'll sort something out on Sunday, don't be missing a great event for a little problem. Id rather my spare be replaced for when I see you next time round rather than sell it to you.

cAptainslow 08-04-2009 08:46 PM

Your all fine chaps the lot of ya!! Much appreciated, Mr Long if your available for 5 mins I might seek your assistance, I stripped two spurs at bury and I have seen a thread elsewhere about it (and your the man ive been told!;)).

Once again,
cAp'
