Superb Chris! Glad to hear it mate. Last year was ace. And not just because i won......ho-hum.

bigchris 04-10-2011 06:45 PM

think everything went well last year - this year its buggy only , keeping the slippy end of the straight - made for good overtakes under brakes! ,

trying to be slicker and smoother this time round!

dhann42 04-10-2011 08:51 PM

Cool looking foward to it Chris :thumbsup:

raymondkerr 04-10-2011 10:09 PM

Rossco_4 10-10-2011 04:26 PM

I'll be there! just hope my transmitter doesn't pack up this time! had a nightmare at last years meeting

Racing Snake 11-10-2011 08:47 PM

I'll be there not sure about racing both classes but will see. Think you should consider having the start of the straight slick & the end of the straight grippy for 2wd as was hard to stop plus should allow for even better overtakes latest on the brakes etc.

Let me know if you'd like us to try bring some equipment down again

haggis 11-10-2011 11:52 PM

any more info on this?

where was it held last year?

bigchris 16-10-2011 10:43 AM

John - your advice is always welcome and your knowledge in track building very welcome , i'd appreciate any kit you can bring down john, gonna sketch out my ideas for track and let your genius go to work on the finer points and tweaks!

That's excellent!

Well done Chris.

Dave77 19-11-2011 10:16 AM

Great numbers Chris, just some more 2wds needed.......always wondered why it was overall less popular in scotland than 4wd, anyone got any guesses?

Also, anyone got some photos from the last time it was run to whet our appetites ahead of next weekend,

Cheers
David

The reason 4wd is more popular is because it's easier. Simple as.

Dave77 19-11-2011 05:06 PM

Thought so.

But more rewarding when you get it right. :thumbsup:
