All day meeting - 25th July 2010 - 3rd Round of Summer Series
 

The track will be open from about 08:00 with booking in to be completed by 09:15. Racing will commence shortly afterwards and we aim to be wrapped up around 16:00 (Pending numbers)..

We run an AMB timing system using BBK Software and have a few handout transponders with most racers using PTs

Come and join us and have a great day racing.

Champ table results can be found here - 2010 Summer Series

We'll have limited Gazebo pit space by the track, but there is more parking just away from the track on hardcore.

We have an on site Porta Loo which is clean and tidy (sharing with the flying club.)

Costs will be as normal, with the exception where people want to do two classes it'll be 50% of the booking in fee again.

£5 for members and £7 for non members

Any questions please PM SteveB or myself as we are the active comittee members for the club on Oople.

I'm sure other TORCH members will contribute to this thread as normal!

Make sure you bring your BRCA cards please.

if you haven't attended TORCH before can you please send me your details etc.

For those that haven't attended TORCH before, please visit our website www.torchracing.org.uk

Will anyone give Steve a run for his money etc?

No football this time :thumbsup:

Hope to see the regulars and new racers!

I'm in Mike, 2wd only. Cougar SV's maiden run.:woot:

Good man, you'll have to try and remember the track! :p

2 and 4 for me, thought I couldn't make this one but had the dates wrong in my head......

Looking forward to some close racing again. I will have my lad with me so thats another Tamiya in, he will be doing 4wd

Plus Nige will be back for this one, yep....another Tamiya :p

I wont be there. 2WD regional at Stotfold.

Shame, but good luck!

Dam it, i'm working :thumbdown:

Do you work every last Sunday :( as we haven't seen you at the summer series yet?

Time to swap / take holiday ?

Any chance of Schumacher South Team again??????

Run out of hols and i work every other weekend :mad:

Can you not swap a weekend?

I'll be there, back with the db01. Just rebuilding my diff the Lee Martin way :thumbsup:

Cool.

I think I am going to do 4WD this time. Not sure or do alternate rounds.

Alternate rounds is ok, but you still have to marshal two heats every round. I'd say race both in the first round (to post a time) then play the next few heats by ear(ie 1 x 4wd and 2x 2wd) Its only the finals that score points after all.
It'll be 2wd only for me, and a very nervous few heats while i get used to the new car. Hopefully, it'll stay in one piece till the final.

There are points for FTD

You'll be fine

I wont be there. 2WD regional at Stotfold.:)

Shame :(

Who is off to Stotfold then ?

Me
Kev
Mark T
Simon C (99%)
Sam M

hey ppl...prob wont be doing all day events till i can get myself on par with things ....if thats ok
some ppl noticed my car was not running at its best on sunday ...ive since found out ..my cells [which are brand new] are al dud n cant handle the new fster stuff ...but im on the case and hopefully the problem will be solved [new cells ] ...see you all in two weeks:thumbsup:

If you need to get new batteries I'd get LIPOs. Best way to learn is to come to these events. more time for people to help etc etc.

I second what Mike is saying here.

Unfortunately i wont be at the next all dayer, but it is a great opportunity for people to help out others.
During the morning meetings there just isnt enough time

Hi fella .......yeah i will get to lipo's as soon as funds are available[soon i hope] as my new speedo can take me so thats ok ,ive got and getting better cell's,

I m sure the best way to learn is at all day meetings but my problem is im a carrer for my partner as she is disabled[as well as 3 brats lol] and at the momment i can only do the sunday mornings so hope thats ok [hence bugdet racing cos had to give up work ]

hey just thought i would pop in and have a look. schumacher south wont be down for a while yet! going to stotfold this weekend for the regional (bit of practice) as the national is in 3 weeks and then basicaly straight after that its the euros and after the euros a few will be doing the end of seasons meetings. might be next year now.
have a good meeting

Enjoy Stotfold, euros and everything else.

Hoping for an EPR event soon.

due to some kind ppl ...i am able to make the sunday all day meetings ...and with me new cells ,there should be no problems :thumbsup:.

so see you all sunday morning

wayne

Weekend
 

We had a cracking weeks racing last weekend, with quite a few drivers beating there PB`s, so well done, results will be posted by Mike soon.

Any news on the following drivers, John K, Malcolm N, Rob W, have not seen them for a few weeks and wondered if we will see them Sunday.

Looking forward to seeing some great racing this weekend.

im looking forward to this sunday [first all dayer] ...does it work the same as the morning only races? or is it bit more chilled n not as fast as sunday mornings?..sorry i guess there silly questions lol ...and im just curious as to what to epect

Unfortunately cannot make Sunday as have family stuff - beach party.

Shame as I have only had one chance so far to run the cougar sv (at the last all-dayer) and did not really get to grips with it - I blame the old thumbs.

Hopefully get to a meeting soon.

Shame, hope to see you at the next one :)

This will be my last meeting as a single bloke!

Wayne, well done and you'll find things at a better pace which assists people in helping out and fine tuning etc.

It's also dicated by the pace of the meeting etc.

JE Spares are kindly providing prizes for this weekend.

Nice one - not that i'll be getting one. Unless its a raffle! i'll have more chance of winning that.

I'll raise this tonight. We generally do prizes for top 3 of all finals.

im actually looking forward to it ...be my first all dayer n im hoping to learn as much as i can aswell :thumbsup:..and ive been testing n making sure the ratty thing works ..and with the new cells its defo made a massive change .:thumbsup:

Have you been doing a lunch break or just firing on thru?
And what is the expected finish time? (i know it depends on numbers but a ballpark)?
Hope Steve has a supply of schuy wheels and tyres.

Pending on numbers, but we have broke for lunch in the past.

I have secured some raffle prizes for this weekend.

Way da go Mikey, gettin it done!
