Dates for 2013 series
 

Hi Guys,
We have organised the dates now for 2013 Regional Series.

21st April - Barrow
19th May - Stoke
2nd June - LDA
16th June - Southport
14th July - Bury
25th August - South Lakes


These will all be 2wd and 4wd on the same day.
If the booking in number go above 120 then we WILL BE dropping the rounds to 3 rounds and finals.

It will also be the best 4 rounds out of 6.

The booking in fee has gone up for this year to £10 and you have to book in with the hosting club.

I will post more details later.

Thanks

are we using the online system again stu,

I think this answers your question Carl, From Woody's post :-

The booking in fee has gone up for this year to £10 and you have to book in with the hosting club. :p:p:p

When does booking in open? Can we book in for all of them at the same time?

Barrows booking in will open on march the 1st . The southlakes will be open on May the 1st you have to book in with the club you are going to. Im sure the others will post details soon .

Cheers mate

Why can I not just enter all by sending one email address??

6 meeting means 6 email address and booking in is done on different dates. That's just daft if you ask me......

Sending one email per month to book in to race isn't really a big deal in the grand scheme of things. :thumbsup:

Stu will provide the details, but quite simply there will be a window in time in which you can book for each event. Booking will close the Sunday before the event. That is not to say that you can't book in late, but if you do then no matter what your ability you will be put into the lowest ability heats.

In doing this we hope the lists will be a little more accurate than last year, giving the race controller ample time to set up their database prior to the event with few changes before we race. This should mean less time needed at booking in on the day.

If we could book in advance for all six events, most would do this with little worry about whether they can make them all. Done individually you are closer to the date of the race and hopefully a little more sure that you will race.

So are heats going to be done from Formula grading this year, or whatever ability you tell the race controller?

i think heats should be f rating for round 1 then championship standings for all other round if thats possible

For the first round (at least ) heats will be sorted into F grades . When booking in you will be asked for this . If you dont suppy it i wont be chaseing you up for it or checking the list on the north west pages on here where they are. You will be put into a low heat. I will double check if its given . For the barrow booking in you will be asked for
Full name if no surname is given no booking will be taken
brca number
F grade
pt numbers
Classes you wished to be entered into

The hope is every one will have ample time to book in . If a fellow member of your club hasnt got the internet,a phone ect a fellow racer can always book them in . I hope to have a full heat listing up by the monday before the barrow regional and if there is a problem it can be fixed before the start of the meeting . Any body booking in after the dead line of 12 pm the week before or on the day will go in the first heats regardless of F gradeing .

Where is Stoke's outdoor track and what surface will it be?

ST5 7LB

Hi, I'm new to regional racing, can anyone enter or do you need to have a F grade?

Thanks

matt

Anyone can enter, just need a BRCA membership

Matt,
If you are not already a BRCA member, you can join direct, or through an affilliated club (Bury/Southport for example). You will automatically be given F5 grade. You can progress up to F2 by Regional qualification; F1 is reached by Nationals results.
