Unless work changes thursday and shouldnt, will be there for 6pm.:thumbsup:

So ive been reading:thumbdown: Real shame as it would have been fun with another 4wd car on track :eh?:

Yup, extremely poor, as you know, takes a lot to rile me Duncan :). I'll bring the dog down on Thursday so you can have a look.

Biting the bullet npw and going new, something I should have done in the first place really :yawn:

Blimey, i'll have to start calling you Kristian soon ;)

6.00pm Chris. If you can come it'll make 5 helpers with is good as I need another body to help ramp building etc etc. You around?. Even 6.20pm would be ok :thumbsup:

Hi Neil,
I can make it this week too... Let me know if you still need hands to help prep... I might also have a few extra jumps (well one jump!) to see if you want to include it.. (will need covering with some carpet but, if I get it finished, I'll bring it along)...

I'll be there for around 6.15 so if theres anything still to do i'll give you a hand.

Mate can made before 6 if that helps
Chris

WTF is That all about?

Think Duncan was refering that my car collection might be getting as high as yours soon :D

Cant do pre 6 buddy :thumbdown:

We got carpet! . What have you got and more importantly will it go on the back of your bike?

i'm looking at nitro cars as we speak:p

Hey Neil,
Had a few bits of spare thick plywood and some old spare cut offs of decking, so out came the jigsaw and made a few (one for starters) of those kicker jumps I've been going on about... Just have to get some thin ply to cover them with and jobs a good'un!
:thumbsup:

Be good to see how it works when covered in carpet!

Then I can (if wanted) make a few more different ones with whats left of the cut offs!

:D:D:D:D

Massive table top please

Lets see how far the cars fly on the one I've got set up for now - taht is if/when I get the thin plywood! Its about 3x car height, with a nice swept kicker lip to it and then I've got enough to certainly make one 5-6x car height..). So things could get quite airbourne!!

All we have to do is try and find something suitable for longer landing ramps and see where we place them! I wqas thinking of some 'simple' basic triangle ramps for landing again with whats left of the thin plywood on them to help cushion the landing... Suck it and see a bit I reckon...:D

Bring what you have as we have all the ramps from the old RC Arena... lots of ply covered in carpet...

Will do! Just hope the car lasts longer this week too! I wanna play on the jumps!! Will try to get there as early as I can too to help sort out setting up the ramps... (inc gluing/tacking down the carpet on my jump)...:)

Here's one for all you ramp builders

LOL, but we don't have a tree to jump thru' indoors!!!! (but I do like it for next season outside!!!!)

Neil

Just to confirm - there is 240v power and chairs/tables available?

Planning to come up this Thur and then come up with Jack on the 27th -school half term so no problem with a late night for him:thumbsup:

Cheers

Rob

Hi matey,

Yes, power no problem, plenty of chair and tables :thumbsup:

Be good to see you up... Fastrax tyres maybe? :D

We're not running half term as I am away, sorry :cry: Bring him this week.... he'll only need to get through one school day without falling alseep :thumbsup:

Thanks, Neil

Yes, need to get some practice both driving indoors and with Fastrax tyres:D

I'll have to come up with another plan for getting Jack some indoor carpet running before the MK GP - not sure if I can persuade the missus to let me keep him out until 11.30 on a school night - she has the job of getting him up in the mornings and for some reason does not understand how important model car racing is :confused:

Cheers

Rob

lol Mine doesn't seem to understand this either.:woot:

Lino has been purchase for some more slippy stuff as it went down so well last time. This stuff will be polished when first laid and left like it for a few weeks at a time. The shiny board can be used in other places...

Also have some cardboard rolls to roll the carpet up on at the end of a nights racing.

Excited!!! Can we start tonight :thumbsup:

no Not more slippery polished stuff! That's my kryptonite! ;)

You love it!.... James Rumble said if I get the lino shiney enough he'll throw some ill shapes on it afterwards :thumbsup:

Got some other bits and bobs today..... should be fun tomorrow... just hope the foam arrives in time :woot:

All: We'll be doing 3 heats and 2 finals for all tomorrow, so those who like to go early get a final in and then have the choice to stay/go.

foam/padding
 

hope those nasty concrete cougar smashers are gona be covered up!:thumbsup::thumbsup::thumbsup::thumbsup:

Let me know in the daytime tomorrow if your foam doesnt arrive I may have some 4 inch thick acoustic foam at work you can use temporarily :thumbsup:

just sent some 'cr@ppy' phone pics of my ramp to Dudders... She ain't pretty but I think you'll all enjoy the flight!!

(hopefully!) Still if mark 1 doesn't work I can see what I can do for mk2!!:thumbsup:

Hi all, planning on racing tonight for my first time at SHRCCC. I see on your site the postcode is GU9 9LG, I assume this is for the outdoor track, but I gather the indoor is on the same site, is this right?

Yes, same site, the building is a little further along lower weybourne lane than the postcode tells my sat nav though, your looking for a sea cadet building next to the fishing club.
only 1 building on the site so you cant miss it :thumbsup:

Alternatively go on google maps (93 lower weybourne lane) in satellite view, thats the building your looking for!
