Moto Arena Tuesday 4th January 2011
 

Hi all, don't forget that the Moto Arena opens it's doors for the first off road evening on Tuesday 4th. Hot and cold food will be available this time (no problem with the pipes freezing) and it will be a chance to practice for the Silverstone MCC event that is on next Saturday (8th).

Booking in as normal from around 6.00 ....... get on down to the Moto Arena in sunny Silverstone, you know it makes sense :thumbsup::thumbsup:

How much is it to race on a tuesday eve?

It's £8 matey :thumbsup:

No special new years deal i.e first eve's race is free? :thumbsup:

Bums on seats as they say, plus you will make mega bucks on food and drink

Just a idea (dont ask, dont get!)

Cheers

Yep, special new years, first drive deal .............. £8 LOL;)

Here's an idea, first time there free entry, but you must buy 1 burger, £15

hows this???:p

I thought it wasn't on till next week? Damn, would ahve been there if I'd have known :(

Better be a good burger for £15!:drool:

Might try and sort out a car share from south wales...get afew of us up and cut down the costs

I,ll be there, i might even dust my 4wd off.:lol:

Get it done, you know it makes sense :thumbsup:

well my cars are ready:p:thumbsup:

I'll be there.

Might even have the Chilli tonight if they don't sell out before I get chance.

Come on Roger, sort your calendar out man and come and have some fun :thumbsup::thumbsup:

I'll be there bright and early ;)

Lots of down ramps tonight? ;)

gimme a call to let me know what time bud

Looks like I will be located in the arse end of beyond (Sufolk) for work until after Petit so now it will febuary before I get chance :cry:

Oh well, keep on improving it as you have been and it will be stela by the time I make it over.

What time do people get in there? Im off today so will pop down if someone lets me know pretty soon.

6pm although you can get there earlier as the MA is open all day. I think Lee usually gets there about 4 and puts the track out.

Run the 4wd Simon :thumbsup:

Loved the track tonight guys thanks :thumbsup:

Some seriously quick laps done by these guys...A joy to watch ;)

What time did it all finish last night?

I'm hoping to come to the next tuesday race night.

We were done by about 10.20pm :)

Cant wait to get down there, quick holiday, build '22', go race!

Next Tuesday is the one NOT to miss ;)

You should have kept the 511 ;)

Are the pit tables/chairs ready supplied or do I need to bring my own?
Thanks

Tables, chairs, power and burgers are already there....

Say no more...see you on Tuesday.

Just watched the video, the facility looks great!

If I am over that part of the country on work I'll bring my racing gear and come along.

What tyres do you guys run in there?

Mark, it's a bit of a grey area (for some) as it depends on just how much carpet/tarmac the layout contains.

For me, it's yellow minispikes every time as on the tarmac there's nothing better and they are very forgiving on the carpet. I used one set of fronts and two sets of rears for around 8 meetings so it works out cheap and you can use up all your part worns before you acetone them. For others it's yellow minipins but I find them a bit "grabby" on the carpet and nowhere near enough on the tarmac. It's just down to personal preference really, but if you've got worn sets of both it's best to bring them along and try to see what suits you.

Hope that helps :)

Thanks for the advice, good way to use up some part worn Tyres, I have spike and pins in my tyre box so good to go!

Pins Alec, pins!!!! Last time I listen to you LOL :p:p:p

Well worth the 300 mile round trip will be there sat as well if the wife will let me.:lol:

Good job lads best place i have raced at....

Glad you liked it mate, bring a few friends along next time :)

I'll swap you any reasonable yellow minis (front) for pins LOL ;)

tyres ?????
 

hi guys what tyres are best for 2wd x6 never raced on tarmac before i only ask so i can come well prepared on saturday any help would be gratefully received .

aaarrrghhhhhhh, just posted on 'tother post, more carpet on Saturday events I believe, would go with mini pins perhaps.

Hi mate, not sure what the lads are running on their 2wd but the options are probably yellow staggered ribs, yellow minispikes or yellow minipins on the front and yellow minispikes or yellow minipins on the rear :)

I'm reliably informed that there could be quite a lot more carpet down this time so judgment on the tyres might have to be left to on the day. I'm also pretty sure that the Moto Arena shop has stock of Schumacher tyres, perhaps Matt can confirm this? :)
