Bury Metro Today
Good day had by all ???
I had a good day slowly but surely getting them times better. |
yeah it was a nice day, i really enjoyed it. my car is finally getting better for the track.
i had an absolute DISASTER in round 2 qualifiying, i was on for 14 laps and a sure A final place when i heard the buzzer go when i was coming to the banked corner and knew i could get the 14. i pushed hard around, the car then flipped and landed about an inch from the finish line, costing me the A final by a second or so :eek: i had a great start the the B final, qualified 4th and got up to first within a few corners, then defended my place from stu evans for a long time, he then overtook me and i rolled the car, resulting in a broke ballstud.:jocolor: The track was very technical ive got to say, it took me a while to get used to it and finally cracked it in the final. roll on next time i say! :) |

Your car did look good Paul until then. It was a good day, and luckily the rain held off until shortly after we all left! |
i like the technical tracks i drive my B4 with lots steering rate, i suffer from grip roll alot but thats something ill have to ask people what they recomend to stop it. My quickest time today was 4 secs off a 13 laps.

on that note, any one know where i can get some losi TI ball studs? need about 4 for the rear :) and then another 4 to replace them after i break them also:jimmeh |
Had not a bad day made to many mistakes didnt help that Roger put me in a hight heat so running with the faster lads didnt help the make spencer drive better period, felt like I had to push to hard to keep up so made mistakes. The final was better had a cleanish run no mistakes a few wide lines but managed a thirteen lapper so very happy with that. :D :D

Aye good day today, never raced a foreign regional before and was a bit mad having a seperate final like but still a laugh.
I set the car up same as I had it at the North East regional (bury) but it didnt seem quite as good, very "tippy" it was. Got the photos done a couple of hours ago but I cant connect to my FTP for some reason, so, not sure when I can put them up :confused: |

They do them in short, medium and long, so think about the length you need - no harm in going too long but too short just won't do. |
Yeah great day, & came 1st in the D!:D

As prevoiusly mentioned by Paul the B final duel was shaping up to be a cracker.
Paul got a great start & nicked the inside line about half a lap in. It was nose to tail for about another three mins with Derek & Barry chasing us down. When Paul broke the ball-stud I was genuinly sorry as a good race is of more interest to me than the result. Return of the mighty Cock-Nose XX next week at Batley, got a lot of underseteer to get rid of. There is a random gallery up on northernracer, I was a bit tied up when all the finals action was happening so Jimmy's gallery is (as normal) the place for the real action shots. |
You managed to get an awesome picture of my BK2 Stu! :D Cheers!

Looks like you all had fun.
We were club racing at Teesdale. Hope to see you all at Batkey next weekend:flower: |
Aye, we'll be there Gem, Caravans & Girls in tow.
