Will there be some scantally clad lovelys handing out the cheques? :woot::woot::woot:

Sounds like a good weekend :thumbsup: Will it be round by round, 2 from 5 or 3 from 5?

1/10 th euros comes to mind :(

CharlieF 23-05-2008 08:16 AM

Given the meeting is over two days it will be very much like a Euro's event - much to the same sort of timetable, only both classes will be run during the two days (i.e. 2WD followed by 4WD).
Been looking at a Euro's timetable and we could go for 2 practice on Saturday followed by 3 Qualifying rounds with 2 qualifying rounds on Sunday followed by 3 leg Finals for all.
Qualifying will be Round by Round with 2 scores to count from 5.
If anyone has asperations of doing the "double" they will be doing a maximum of ten runs each day!!!!
As the poster says, the prize fund is currently £200.00 but we are hopeful for further sponsorship from local firms etc. so hopefully more prize money.

Northy 23-05-2008 08:36 AM

I think the poster meant it is on at the same time as the euros Charlie.....

I know Grant meant that G but I couldn't resist the temptation to advertise further.

So in the same vein, anyone NOT going to either Belgium for the GP or Italy for the Euro's can come to Holbeach to experience what a two day Euro's "style" event feels like.

Northy 23-05-2008 10:37 AM

Haha, I knew too Charlie :lol:

That's true, unless your Mrs is about to drop a sprog out about 4 days later...... :(

andy reeves 31-05-2008 11:34 AM

cheers guys. two more questions, is it any tyres or is it restricted as per nationals? also what batteries are we allowed to run?

Thanks.

blitzboy 31-05-2008 11:58 AM

id check with mr mackman on that but at a guess id say usual rules apply ,not sure on lipo s ;)

CharlieF 02-06-2008 09:43 PM

Given that there is money involved I believe there will be a controlled tyre choice. Something like Ballistic Buggy Spike, Schumacher Mini-Spike and GRP Cone-Spike for the rear axle. Compound being a free choice.
As to cells, only those allowed for BRCA sanctioned meetings as we will be running to BRCA 2008 rules. i.e. No Lipo's.

andy reeves 03-06-2008 07:06 AM

well i'm booked in for both classes (gluten for punishment) but i really am looking forward to the meeting, just hope you have all booked the weather :thumbsup: Thanks Charlie regarding the batteries, i guessed that to be the case but thought i would ask the question. Will be be having an announcment regarding the control tyres so that i can order some in for the meeting :o

Northy 03-06-2008 08:01 AM

Charlie, is that BRCA regional or national meetings? I.E. are 2008 and 2007 cells allowed?
