Race Day Info

* Doors open Sunday morning at 7:30am, 30th nov
* Bring your own tables and chairs.
* Car parking is security patrolled and costs 60p for the day, so bring some change!!

Unfortunately last year, someone had their Sat Nav stolen from their car, so lets keep valuables out of sight when cars are left all day. The security man wasnt much use to Mr. Lowe unfortunately, though when I went to see him, he was watching the TV in his cabin.


* Mains power is available, however racers are responsible for bringing extension leads and distribution of the power.
* 12V batteries for charging are allowed providing they are in a leak proof container.
* Please adhere to the guidance from the BRCA reference charging of cells, this will no doubt be posted up in the hall in a prominant place by Mr North.
* On booking in one practice ticket will be issued per class (4 min controlled practice).
* Castle Models will be in attendance for parts and tyres etc.
* Food will be available from 11am to 5pm at the venues cafe.
* Temper tantrums on the rostrum will not be tollerated (bad language or not!!), this includes our very own Mr Pack , this is a public venue and we need to represent the sport in a good light at all times.
* Most importantly ENJOY the day, if you have a problem please come and speak to one of the officials and we will do what we can to help!!

This is the same venue as last year and it was really good. I hope the entry for this event is good as I recall it being the lowest of the year for this one last year which was a shame for the quality of track they made.

So, any pictures, idea's, plans for the track - im looking forward to this! :thumbsup:

josh_smaxx 24-11-2008 04:44 PM

Track was ACE last year :thumbsup: good turn out this year please.

Carver86 24-11-2008 05:05 PM

is there still a short supply of 4wd front mini-pins or do you think castle models should have some now?

Lee 24-11-2008 06:43 PM

I think the series has less appeal because its not an "official" meeting :(

It's a shame, but i wont be there either :( I have to give the 1/8 car a run before the clash

Pete had plenty last weekend, but with them being made out of the softest rubber known to man I need a new set already. Who stocks GRP?

Its better this way dude, we can go Lipo!!

NERCR guys, what time will you be in the hall on Saturday? As I will be staying over nearby so can come assist with track building if you need it?

If anybody os not going due to distance then its a shame, its one of the best venues. Just don't leave SatNav cradles on display - or anything else to that matter.

I was there at the weekend though doing 12th National :)

so distance's not an issue just the work thing is, can't get out of it without swapping a shift and then maybe having to pay it back on another race day like the Ace's @ TRCC which is my weekend off or 12th National etc

I understand that G, i know that its this way because of lipo etc and it probably is for the best but worksop is "the" lipo series which i think people would rather attend. Personally i would do both if it didnt clash with other events, but there are only so many sundays :)
