Just be organised, and have fun. My first was Teesside on 16 Dec 2007, i was crapping myself thinking i was going to get in the way and all that but i ended up doing well and got myself in the B. Just relax, be organised and have a great day out!

GEt your packs charged the ngiht before get your ca ready the night before get it ready to go on the track in ractise get as mch track time as possible and remmeber dont try and rive aroud the fast lines drive around the middle of the track you maybe be a second a lap slower but if you crash you loose more time.Also dont forgot to get your trasnponder return your transponder and marshall. Other than that kick back and relax if you need any help dont heistate to ask the top drivers they look scary but they wont bite.

Ash, you really need to proof read your posts.

Ye, get your packs charged, make all use of practice time and try and drive as smooth as possible, keep on line and dont push to hard. Also, make sure you have enough tires to keep you going

[andy_n]

ye ill have my batteries ready the biggest problem is my tyres really iv been told to run mini pins and i am curently running mini spikes and cant really afford to change over to pins
so i mite just have to have ago with the spikes from what iv herd they should still work at york as its abit like where i run at the minute so dunno ill try it

[josh_smaxx]

If theres plenty of carpet then spikes will be fine, but a second set of rears wouldnt go a miss, you might be surprised how far they wear down when racing like this.

Andy,

Spikes will be fine at York.
If you need any help or want to ask any questions just ask someone to point you in my direction, I'm the North East regional rep, so I'll help you with all I can.

I'd say, turn up in good time, be ready to practise, and above all have fun!
