Good Friday Special
 
Gentlemen,

Are we having a Good Friday special this year?

need to book it out with the mrs if we are.. :)

blue_pinky 29-03-2012 09:58 AM

Oh poop....totally forgot about that one! Ummm....not at the moment, as I suspect we've dropped the proverbial on it up to now...most likely because the micro national wasn't long ago, and we're taking it easy after that 'little' effort.

Leave it with us a moment and we'll see...in the meantime let us know if your interested...then if interest is there at this late notice and if we can book the rest of the day (also at this late notice!) we will.

Might I make a suggestion though, we run a slightly shorter version of it than last year...seem to remember it being a very very long day last time...lets go a little easier this time round maybe?

We def have usual club in the evening...going to see if we can start early too...but will post here when we know for sure.

Body Paint 04-04-2012 07:04 AM

I'm in for an early start if its on, though I agree with what Andy.

blue_pinky 04-04-2012 08:31 AM

So Pete can't get there early, but I could in theory...not seen huge amounts of interest on here for it though to see if it's worth the effort.

Currently I'd be up for starting a couple of hours earlier...say getting there for about 3-4pm, should give us time for a couple of extra finals...so normal club night with 3 leg finals basically.

Thoughts?

chris-on-wheels 04-04-2012 09:15 AM

I can get there for 3 or 4. to do my booking in duties.

acorn28 04-04-2012 11:01 AM

I probably won't be there until 7. Am I still good to join a heat at that time?

blue_pinky 04-04-2012 11:23 AM

If we do start early...which is looking likely...we'll start racing at about 5:30ish, basically early enough to run 2 extra finals making it the usual 3 qualifiers but then 3 leg finals instead of a single one.

Anyone can join in at any point, so if your not there at the start it's no problem, you'll be booked in when you arrive and join at the next round :thumbsup:

Just waiting to hear if we can get in the hall a bit earlier now.

matthew 04-04-2012 02:07 PM

This will be my first time at caldicot :D so I am really looking forward to it, I will get there for the earliest time possible, I'd do all day if it was allowed, so I am definitely up for an earlier start :thumbsup:

blue_pinky 04-04-2012 03:30 PM

Right we have the go ahead...Doors at 4:30pm, first race on the line at 5:30pm!

Format is:

Open Practice as soon as track is built.
3 rounds of qualifying
3 leg finals for all

Finished, CLEANED UP and doors locked by 11:30pm :)

In light of recent events I am getting the keys and having a check around the hall before I want anyone else there! See you all at 4:30pm, not before please :thumbsup:

P.S. Matthew...funnily enough I thought the same as you until last year...so we did run ALL dayand the evening! By about 6pm we were all totally shattered...the last few runs were REALLY hard work! Sad but true :woot:

mrspeedy 04-04-2012 05:12 PM

4.30 it is then :thumbsup:

hit5005 04-04-2012 05:25 PM

Great good-friday night. 7 Rounds plus Finals. Big thanks to the people that stayed behind to help pack away. It makes packing away a lot quicker.

matthew 07-04-2012 05:16 PM

I just want to say a big thank you to every one that organised this event it was a great night really enjoyed it. I also want to thank dean Morgan and every one else that helped me out with set ups :thumbsup:(sorry not the best with names but you know who you are) made my car so much easier to drive and made it a much better night for me :D
On another note, on your first visits are they supposed to be free or is the website not up to date...
Thanks again for a great night :)

chris-on-wheels 07-04-2012 05:41 PM

hi matt, didn't you show a current BRCA card? Thats why I charged you mate. The free night and 3 meetings before you have to join the BRCA only applies to people who are new to racing.
