Better tear up that sleep-rota!


Will there be rules about walking across the track to recover upturned cars? Will marshals have to be designated (and wearing their hi-viz, especially during the dusk session!)?
Happy birthday by the way :-) yes you will have to wear your Hi Viz jacket. I would have the next driver to do the marshalling armed with a new lipo, that way they can see how the race is currently unfolding and how the car is currently handling also they are there as soon as the car runs flat so can switch straight away and I would have old driver and new driver do the battery change together. That way the other 4 are used for charging and maintenance. I worked it out that you would get at least an hours break :-)

Cars will also have lights on so marshals can see cars coming.
