This is a huuuuge indoor venue people and so close to Christmas it's bound to be horrible and cold outside so get booking in :)
The Track is going to be designed by the one and only Lee "Pidge" Martin so you can expect good things for this one :cool: (no pressure Lee) Andy, posting a link is fine mate - http://www.newburyrcclub.co.uk/mkgp.htm Hope to see a few there - we don't get many proper Off Road indoor races so this should be good! |
|
early track designs are going well.......................
this could be one of the best indoor venues seen for a long time!!! combo of slippy floor and carpet with hand made wooden kickers...table tops. doubles and even a cross over!!!!! muahahah |
From a micro racing point of view..that track sounds ace!!!
Lee, just a quickie, are you gonna be running a shortened straight for us wee micro racers? If you are bored on Sunday you could always pop along to Hereford and watch Craig, Keith, Jimmy and John racing their small cars with the big boys :) |
Is there going to be a control tyre for the offroad class? On the site it says 3 min in each class, is this possible??
Cheers |
hmmm the micros...had not thought of that.............
ill look into it lol |
Cheers Lee :)
You never know..you may even be tempted to join us at some stage ;) |
ha............i have a 18t......
maybe ill have a play with someones with a steer wheel on the day |
Quote:
He means as in 3 Entries minimum to run each class so if they only get 2 micro stock it won't run for instance :-) It will be normal 5 Minute runs with qualifying and finals. I believe Yellow Minipins will be the tyre but Andy Bell (Ginger Fixit) will confirm shortly. |
Cheers Nick, i'll try and make it
|
Lee,
Gimme a shout on the day..if you race steer wheel you can lay the smack down with my Blaze if you like fella :) |
hi guys
at this stage i plan to run 3 rounds qualy round by round best 2 and 3finals should help to build a bit of tention (all depends on entry numbers and time ) you will gain points for tq and qualy position and from each final should make it an excelent meeting tyres thats up to you i think being indoors tyres is going to be the one thing you can change to make a huge difference we have a shop on site so tyre will be avalible all day thanks any qs just ask thanks p.s entires will be published on newbury club forum there will be a link from the info page For the gp |
will try and do this meeting just need to check dates.
so on the entry form where you mark ability, is 1 best, or 10 best? I assume you cant run 2 classes on the same day? ta dan |
hi dan
10 is best 1 is pull start class if you get my meaning and you can book in for 2 classes if you like you may have to get your marshalling covered but thats up to you thanks hope that helps Andy bell |
run both classes if u want.....#
be 2 entry fees though.....im guessin |
|
Gooo Onn, you know you want to:D. Plenty of room for those track ideas in that hall Lee!!
|
ace, good bit of space there, just hope im allowed to come now!
|
Guys it's going to be awesome - Lee and I will be drawing up the track this week on the PC so will upload to get you all interested.
There's plenty of time left but the sooner you book in the better! The Viewing gallery makes a perfect height rostrum with LOADS of room for practising (Room for at least 20 people practising) imagine the carnage ;-) Depends if it's practise in heat order or just free practise but either way it will work great as a rostrum. Looking forward to it! |
What tyres should I be looking to buy for this? for a B4? schumacher mini pins - yellow?
|
guys
lee martin , tony truman, nick goodall all confirmed come on guys lets start booking in its gona be awsome Andy |

Spikes are good on carpet but don't last long! |
|
will also be alot of slippy flooring!
pins work well and get better with wear! 1 set all day! |
Slippy floor is great :)
Will it be like the indoor 1/10th pics from the oOple Gallery? |
mk update
pts can be used pm me if u want yours added it will be added to the entry form asap thanks Andy |
Pics from the hall remind me of the Parmiters School "shootouts" Daren Boyle used to run in Watford, 2 days, mix of buggys & tourers, same sort of viewing area used as the rostrum. It was always mini pins on the carpet & areas of polished floor, Jordan will be there with the ZX5 if we can fit the dates in. Should be great. Well done lads, good idea. Mick
|
Andy,
Is there a motor limit for 1/10th 4WD? Im hopefully going to enter with a borrowed BX. Itll be my first ever use of a 1/10th offroader so treat me gentle ;) |
Looking on here http://www.newburyrcclub.co.uk/mkgp.htm there's the below table, so looks like any motor can be used for both 2wd and 4wd 1/10th.
Classes 2WD Any electric motor 1/10th 4WD Any electric motor 1/18th 4WD Prostock 1/18th 4WD Modified Classes must have a minimum of 3 entries to run Quote:
|
I'll be there 2wd unlimited class :o
|
I'm there, 4wd ..... looks like a good venue
|

Wot, micro racing!!
I'll be there without a doubt, my brother will probably be too if he's not working away. Awesome! I am confused though, people have entered but it says the entry form not up until Thursday? Is there another way of entering? Also is it alright if I cover the event on my website? (http://www.glypo.com) Ta. |
hi guys
sorry that the forms not working have to speak to my web master you can pm me your details class ability xtals transponder number if you have one and feel free to get it on as many sites as you like thanks guys Andy Bell |
I'll be there for sure entering the 18scale mod class. Might even try and get some batteries to run the ZX-5 as well! :D
|
The pro-stock and modified, is this like the UKMC/UKMX where pro-stock is a any brushed motor and modified is any brushless? Sorry just thought I'd check before I enter the wrong class.
