Indoor Special

hazzelarator · #1 22-11-2008

Hi,
I have been organizing an indoor 'Christmas special' race in an indoor equestrian centre just north of Newcastle. The event will take place on Sat the 20th of December and is open to all electric 1/10 scale buggys. You can book in on the website, or if your a gambling man then pay on the day however there will be a limited number of places and it will be strictly first come first serve. Check out the site @
http://www.indoorspecial.tk/

Please feel free to ask any questions and I'l endeavor to answer them!

You may still race but will not be counted unless you have your own Personal Transponder!

Unfortunately I don't have the facility for any 'borrowed' transponders, however I will make enquiries to see if I can get hold of some for the event!

The arena surface is a state of the art high grip loose rubber and sand composite which leaves cars perfectly clean and simulates 'dirt' most tyres seem to work quite well

which tyres have been tested?

Yea something like that, lol

I've run on mini pins, the old schumacher cat spikes and the rounder schumacher spikes. To be honest doesnt seem to be a load of difference. Even blue compound ones seem to get plenty of grip. We also have now been lent some 'borrow' transponders for those who are too stingy to buy a PT ; )

'Might' be able to make it.

About transponders. Ok, there £60 which is expensive, but its not that im to stingy to buy one, just i dont trust them, if it fails then i dont get my run, if a club bug fails then i have a leg to stand on, providing someones watching the race.

Hey guys - when you see a " ; ) " it's a smiley that didn't come out right, it means a wink with a smile - i.e. he's only joking.

And he has made the effort, and succeeded, to get 'handouts' for those in need.

fair do's..to be honest i was put off in the first place by having to have a PT to get your laps counted which would have been pointless if you never had one but maybe now there are handouts its worth looking into.
