Surrey & Hants BRCA Mid South 2wd Regional 27th May 2012 Info

[Dudders]

SHRCCC BRCA Regional Round Site and Race Information:

Track address is: Samual Cody Sports College, Ballantyne Road, Farnborough, Hampshire GU14 8SN.

Please see this PDF to give first timers an idea of the venue and layout: http://www.shrccc.co.uk/surrey%20and...b%20layout.pdf

Phone number on the day for late arrivals is 07795 260571. Please send a text rather than call

Due to the nature of the site, no access is allowed before 7.00am. The track and pit space are inside a locked compound.

The committee will enter the compound and surrounding paddock pitting area at 7.00am and prepare for general opening at 7.15am. Committee members will be manning the gates to prevent access until the club officials are ready for the venue to accept racers. If you wish to form an que you are more than welcome to do so with your gazebo's and tables/chairs at the track entrance nearest the carpark (by race control).

Pitting will be inside the compound and behind the rostrum on the grass section. There is no pitting allowed from cars or the car park. You will be asked to move if you have set up there. We have enough room for around 70 racers+ trackside so it’s hoped the paddock will only be lightly in use or not even needed. Please be sensible where you place your tables and make room for other racers.

Mains power is available on one side of the compound only, the sports hall wall. Electric will be limited for each spur. 12v’s are fine in the compound, generators must be placed outside and away.

There will a food van from early on, please support them by purchasing lots of lovely meaty items, they also are doing chips for us. Normal selection of cold drinks, Chocolate Bar, Crisps etc etc.

There are male and female toilets complete with showering facilities. So if you have a long journey to us they are ideal to take advantage of for an extrra 20 mins in bed!

7.15am Trackside open for pitting. Track closed.

During the lunch break, we will be having a concourse competition voted on by an unknown ‘G’ grade celebrity!. There will be a voucher on offer from our club sponsor Apex Models and also the prize of a free race entry upon a return visit to Surrey and Hants for the winner!

During this time the track will be closed (unless permission granted by race director) We hope to have all the racing wrapped up by inc trophies at around 5.00pm.

Chris Ellis has kindly volunteered to be our chief steward to monitor the finals from the rostrum. Please adhere to his comments.
