I'm hoping to goto all of the above, except the one on 7th June as its my birthday (and my girlfriends'!) on the 8th so i guess we will be busy that day.

What sort of surface is the costal off road track? Anyone race there?

[jcb]

Both Coastal and MERCC are grass tracks. Coastals track is at the bottom of the ski slope, but it is still on a large slope which makes getting a setup interesting as last year we ended up with lots of off camber corners and it was all rather quick with a long down hill straight.

The venue is good as there is indoor pitting and mains power to, and the crew from coastal always do some great commentry on the qualifying and racing.

Hope that helps, but any further questions fire away.

Thanks I'm familiar with the MERCC track is its my home turf never really raced anywhere else though so it should be interesting! I'll have to play around with my setup. Sounds like a great venue anyway!

I would think your setup from MERCC would be an ideal starting point for Coastal. As they are both grass tracks, just a bit of minor tweeking to suite your driving on the day. If you want a hand with setups there is bound to be someone there that will give you some pointers. Or just ask away on here, most cars are used by someone in the region.

Excellent! All i need now is to figure out a setup for MERCC, since i haven't raced there for 7 years!
