I agree Ian. Invied all the existing teams back before taking new entries.

I think there should be a selection of scale shells available to use. The 911 GT3 RS along with the BMW M3 GT2, Ford GT,...

I dunno, we are no where near France and the ACO (Ardent circuit officials) are up to their old tricks. :lol:

The teams should not be able to touch the cars during the scruitineering time, as that gives an advantage back to that team.

I know what you are saying about allowing extra time so that checks...

I am all for making sure all the cars are legal, but with pre-race checks as well, then 2x15min checks during the race it just seems a bit over the top. This will mean each car is being checked for...

I was also under the impression it was 5 mins. 15 mins is going to seem like an age and will make the race hard to follow if teams will be loosing 45 laps at different times. I am guessing it's not...

Challenge 30 tyres didn't fully fit over the kit tyres when they were looked at for the SPC which is why we ended up with Pit Shimizu D30's. It would be a real shame if we ended up on medium narrow...

I totally agree John. They are not a bad tyre at all. Its the same for everyone and they will sort out the good drivers, from the drivers who are normally flattered by tyres that give out too much...

I ran the Sprint 2 911 with the flux brushless on those X pattern tyres at Yateley last year. Yes it was slippy, and Yateley is not the most grippy track either, but you just had to adjust how you...

It only feels bad cos you are all used to lots of grip. We used to run Tamiya TT01 kit radials in the old Tamiya Eurocup, and they are worse than the X pattern D compound. Everyone will soon get used...

Found the Pro compound with a bit of searching. Looks like they were discontinued (http://www.hpieurope.com/piw.php?lang=en&partNo=4490), I am pretty sure its only the D compound that are available

Not seen the pro compound X patterns. Where have you seen them?

I think the any wheel rule should be refering to any 26mm HPI wheels, would keep it sensible. This would just allow you to use different colours and design of wheels from the HPI 26mm range...

So we can use moulded inserts in the extra sets of tyres? The kit tyres come with inserts, so I would have thought it would be better to stay with them

I don't know how available the pre-glued ones are, but it would be so much better. Otherwise you will get all sorts going on with un-prep'd tyres. Belting, soaking the inserts in additive (they are...

There is a pre-glued version shown on the HPI website. These might be a better option for keeping things 'controlled', plus they are not black either, they are Chrome!!

Does this mean you have decided on the tyres now John? HPI kit tyres (X-Pattern)

Do we have to buy the tyres from you? As I already have some of these unused.

Do you have enough other drivers to take the spare spot as 'Team Diet Chand-a-Cola'?

Might it be a good idea to pre warn of paint schemes for cars. With tired eyes and a period of night/dusky racing, its might help if there are not clashes. I am assuming Team Chand-a-Cola will be red...

I dont think lapping cars should have to fight for position. Maybe consider using Fabcount for the meeting, as it will warn drivers if they are being lapped.
