Silly idea... just for fun!
 
I was thinking... maybe at the last National of this year, maybe after the 2wd finals… get as many racers as possible to race at the same time!

As many different crystals as we can, Spectrum users etc... thought it would be well funny, might be able to get like 50 odd cars running at once, also it would make great video footage!

Yup deffo silly, but maybe very funny and entertaining?

ashleyb4 25-07-2007 02:36 PM

Thats mad !!!! It would be insane but funny as hell.

don't know what your on about ash your marshalling!:D

ashleyb4 25-07-2007 02:50 PM

Im not going to stotfold so i will find it very difficult for me to marshall.

losixxx 25-07-2007 02:52 PM

no change there then;)

Nick Goodall 25-07-2007 02:53 PM

Oh my god that is genius, what a great idea hahhaa

You should have a proper Motocross style line start though, can you imagine the carnage? Would be cool to see who gets the holeshot though....

Only thing - where would everyone stand?? You'll do well to find a big enough rostrum haha, unless you use a bank or something (depending where the track is)??

Just thought of that as you'd be best having the start coming towards the rostrum so you can at least see your own car, and obviously it would need to be an area off the track that's really wide, and then gradually narrows.

That would be cool video footage :cool:

Love it bathy, that's awesome

mole2k 25-07-2007 02:55 PM

That would make a great video, first corner would be fun :D.

I really would pitty the marshals though.

losixxx 25-07-2007 02:58 PM

can you really see the officials letting 50odd cars on the track at once especially as the tracks closed at night so no advantage is gained, even though i doubt you'd be able to use the racing line:D

Kopite 25-07-2007 02:58 PM

u have to marshall your own car as well, just to make it utter mayhem!

ashleyb4 25-07-2007 03:00 PM

Well if you crashed in the middle of the track just imagine a pack of about 20 cars going into the section of track where you have crashed i dont think there would be much left to marshall. because not everyone will be able to avoid your stranded car.

millzy 25-07-2007 03:01 PM

can you imagion the first corner pile up

love the idea

youll have to ask PW mate

josh_smaxx 25-07-2007 03:03 PM

I can see this causing some arguments at some point but i think it is an awesome idea, even if the cars started at different points around the track....

ashleyb4 25-07-2007 03:08 PM

That takes the fun out of it.

Chrislong 25-07-2007 03:13 PM

Bathy, your Nuts! :D

DCM 25-07-2007 03:27 PM

Rubber bumpers for sale, fit a B4, BK2, RB5 and S2.... makes them like bumper cars.... roflol

Nick Goodall 25-07-2007 04:37 PM

If they don't allow it there, we'll do it at Lee's i'm sure ;-) He'll love the idea hahaha, I just love the thought of a full on flat out motocross start into a hairpin - would be so cool to film too

mole2k 25-07-2007 04:53 PM

I think rather than the hairpins the jumps would be one of the most fun bits at least to watch anyway. Deffinately need to have quite a few camera's mounted around the track I think.

xx4-nutter 25-07-2007 05:34 PM

:D :D :D CAR ON THE STREIGHT ! :D :D :D

k£v!n 25-07-2007 05:49 PM

Great Idea, Im not marshallings tho! :D

GRIFF55 25-07-2007 05:51 PM

Sounds bloody great, I think no marshals!!! You crash, your out!!
First corner mayhem then:)

ashleyb4 25-07-2007 05:52 PM

WHICH ONE THERE'S SEVERN!!

Maybe we coudl have like a fun race meeting where we race like normal but drive in mad ways like for example have a round where you drive with your feet. A round where you have to switch your setting round so when you turn right it goes left and when you turn lef tit goes right. A roundwhere you have to race with no wing or something etc.

Chrislong 25-07-2007 07:15 PM

How about at approx 2.5 minutes a bell is rung, and all cars have to change direction where they are. :p

ashleyb4 25-07-2007 07:28 PM

Or every 5 laps you have to turn around and go the other way as if it was 2.5 minutes everyone would still be going in the same direction

A

Southwell 25-07-2007 08:20 PM

How about every lap the person in last place has to run their car off a massive jump into the bushes :D

You would be for ever losing your car southwell :D

b4rs 25-07-2007 08:33 PM

your crazy, hope the damage is going on your card, it would be good, but im skint and cant buy a new car! ill watch, maybe marshall to get a front row seat of the carnage. i thought about this at the supercup at batley, but everyone was like, i dont wanna break my car, i cant believe so many want to do it, i got the impession it was stupid and no one would do it as too much damage would happen

Southwell 25-07-2007 08:43 PM

It's all fun, i ramped my bx off cml wall of death, went miles!

neiloliver 25-07-2007 08:56 PM

We should have done that at Oswestry, we had that longest rostrum! I agree with Andy, if you crash and cant recover you should be out..

josh_smaxx 25-07-2007 08:56 PM

*Sigh* Back in the day at teesside :rolleyes:

At our local club years ago we did this, but didn't tell one lad (he was a tit), and, well, his car broke lots.

I remember one of us shouting 2 minutes in 'ALL CHANGE'.....:D

Yeah, you could make it a 'last car standing' style race.
you just keep racing untill there is only one car left!!

Cool.

Destruction Derby styleeeeeee:

As many cars race at the same time as possible, single start line. All cars go at same time. No marshalls and when you roll (or rammed at just the right time), you're out! All crashed cars remain on the track and last car running wins:)

No, it must be the car with the most laps. Otherwise, just park your car on a safe corner at the start, wait for the others to crash, then win :o

Fantastic idea. I have to import it :D

Hog 27-07-2007 12:30 AM

Guys - can I point you in the direction of http://www.bmbscc.piczo.com/?cr=6&rfm=y where 20+ car heats and finals are the norm, not to mention 30+ car destruction derbies.......
