Default Hot Bodies off road championships 2007 @ don valley

Who's going to the Hot Bodies off-road championships? I saw the advert for them a while back and was reminded today about it - so put our names down. It's run alongside the HB junior touring car thing - but apparently with an alternate layout for the buggies with jumps etc.

9th december they are on at Don Valley - bit of info and entry form here: http://www.mirageracing.com/news/article/703

Im up for a bit of that... Do we need to pre-book or just turn up? I can't decide whether to do 2wd or 4wd, I suppose 4wd.... its not had as many miles on it as my X-6 recently.

Im going. Its a rubber running floor surface. adam and Mr Christopher did some testing last week with some D4's and they found that there wasn't much difference between the schumache mini pins and mini spikes. grip looked good so i dnot think there shoud be too many issues with it.

I'm looking forward to it. should be a laugh if the track is layed out ok.

Adam also tested some GRP cones and said that these and mini spikes were better than mini pins. So most drivers will have 3 options.

Hi I should say we are booked in - but I was thinking of other people getting in to fill up any spaces left. The off road meeting is being run alongside the Junior touring car meeting - a good chance to show the kidZ what they are missing with their flat cars

Would be very interested in this and i know that Russ is also interested and hopefully John might be able to make it as well.

Question is, how are the numbers filling up. Does anyone know?

Thanks.

Col.
