EPR Summer Series Round 4
 
Please check out here:

http://www.edenparkraceway.com/index.htm

basically a club championship on the same weekends as the BRCA Nationals.
We'll run along similar lines to our successful Winter Warmer series and accommodate the same THREE classes: 2WD; 4WD and Truck/SCT providing we get sufficient numbers.

This being the first time that we will be running club meetings since the return of racing at EPR numbers/popularity will largely be an unknown so we'll just see how it goes but aim to provide a more relaxed, less formal meeting aimed primarily at club members and guests but also for returnees, newbies and those coming across from 'the dark side'!

Hope to see you there, start time: same as Round 1 approx. 08:30 but we'll try to move things along during the day but without too much pressure!

I was hoping to come down and race in 2wd.

Do I need to pre book?

Any recommendations on tyres?

brookie 05-07-2011 10:56 PM

Very definitely no need to pre-book, just turn up on the day!

Tyre choice is relatively simple!
Schumacher Yellow Mini Spikes in the dry and Greens if it's damp/wet.
Fastrax Turf Ripper do work but are not as popular as the Schumacher options. Same applies to DBoots!

Hope to see you there! :thumbsup:

Given that we have good weather I should be coming down... fingers crossed.

PaulUpton 06-07-2011 10:16 AM

what time does racing roughly finish? and gates open?

and the format?

brookie 06-07-2011 11:14 AM

Paul,

The last round finished before 4:00PM, largely depends on how many turn up!

We don't start setting up until at the earliest 08:30!

Last round was 4 rounds of FTD (!) Qualifying, then 2 counting rounds of Finals for all. Again that may change on the day, obviously dependant on numbers and conditions! Though forecast looks good at present:

Oh and just to mention..... if the turn-out is much the same as last time, there will be plenty of opportunities for drivers to 'volunteer' marshal but we'll still keep the meeting pretty relaxed, hopefully!

Those saying they're coming could make the Championship interesting!

chris_dono 07-07-2011 06:19 PM

19!!! that's freezing compared to the last time we were there :p

brookie 07-07-2011 06:25 PM

Metcheck says 21 feels like 23 so a little better, more like last week, much more comfortable but still with potential to burn! :cool:

Weathers not looking too clever for tomorrow! :(

Southwell 09-07-2011 06:36 PM

Looks fine on the reports ive read?

Delves 09-07-2011 06:43 PM

Metcheck says at 1000 there will be light rain, then at 1300 heavy rain! BBC site says the same story too...
