Batley Indoor Regional

[tc2k]

So whos going, Im looking to go to it for my first indoor regional ever
Who else is going, I heard its a slippy track and that minipins are advised. Considering I spent justunder 90 quid at the aces, im not sure I wanna fork out another 20 for tyres for a single meet.
Anyway, whos going?

i am for my 1st regional id like to no what time to get there so i can pit in the hall as the only time ive been there to watch the indoor finals thery was pitting in the hallway aswell

it is a fantastic venue and a very good meeting. Its the place to be if you want to see the best. Its very slippy and a few jumps and rubber mats. You have to drive this track. You will enjoy yourself.

£90 on tyres at Aces? Bloody hell - I don't spend £90 a year on tyres! Pins are best for the more dedicated, faster, smoother drivers where spikes work just as well for the not-so-fast driver (thats 4WD). For 2WD pins all day long. Wear is quite good at Batley (because of the slippy) so for most 1 new set will probably last all day

(I know that there will be a few people that dissagree with this, but for those of us that will never make an A final - or probably even a B - I just don't see the point of new tyres nearly every run!)

I think doors open at 8:00?

Col you are spot on. Even the big boys dont replace tyres every run inside.
1 set a day.

[tc2k]

NO!, not £90 on tyres, Im not that stupid I spent £90 on stuff I mean so Im skint. I see that your saying pins are best for 2wd but I was saying I cant afford to shell out for a set of pins that will eb solely used for that one day at Batley, will spikes be okay for me as Im expecting to only be around the F final area

If G won with a walking pace car cos he couldn't get the right pinion on, how much is he going to win by if he gears it correctly?

If I can get my car to hold together for more than 2 minutes at a time (2.5 minutes for the motor) I reckon I can challenge more. I might have found a source for some RC10 bits ( I cannot give away my sources) and he has some new shock bodies (note jim!!!!) so some rear damping won't go a miss either! Not sure if he can source a dogbone though

Er, wrong thread?
