thanks again for the replies



EDIT - one extra question, I see alot of cars running on carpet have guards on their front shock towers... any Idea where I can get them from, ive browsed but am drawing blanks currently..

EDIT EDIT - Does Purcy work or just Harry ?
Hi again.
The guards are generally used to protect the carpet from tearing during a crash. 1 or 2 people do use them at TORCH however, but I assume to protect their front shock tower more than the surface.
Tyres, inserts and glue are usually available at the track, although best to check with Steve Brown or Dan Brown beforehand to avoid disappointment.
The club use the RC4 decoder, so you will need a 'Harry'
Hope this helps.
On race days people start to arrive around 8am. Racing does not usually start till 9.00 to 9.30. This gives time to practise before the start of racing. Ususally some time available after racing for open practise.
