Paul,

we separated the finals on friday between Supastox and Mardaves.

All,
In all fairness, race control split the classes as instructed by the commitee members. I run a Mardave and I prefer to race with people of similar ability as pointed out in a previous post. I suspect newcomers joining in with the Supastox heat (one heat only at the moment) will find it very difficult and intimidating as most of these drivers are established racers who look to race at BRCA events so take the hobby that little bit more serious.

To any aspiring newcomer I would advise on going the Mardave route for your first year. Simply because they are cheaper (standard aluminium slab chassis), easier to set up (tyres = 95%) and are very durable. Installing electrics etc.. is also much easier. However later investment is needed if you plan on taking the hobby further afield than the Glos club.

Just my 2ps worth
