Am going to make my first appearance at the regional on Sunday
Just as a spectator mind you, was tempted by the open 2wd but would like to practice first! What time does everything kick off? Can lend a hand if needed... I'll be the very tall bloke looking a bit lost

We will be there early to set-up but practice wont start until 8.30am or so...
I would recommend having a go in the open class. No pressure as the keen ones will be competing in 4WD and its a perfect opportunity to get some timed laps in and advice from the other racers. |

Tony E was thinking about racing in the SE region but not sure what he decided. Also, I thought Marc was going to come to a few of the meetings I will pick up the e-mails and add your info to our new bbk timing software. PS: Did you get your BRCA membership card? |

You register by e-mail or on the day. BRCA membership is needed to compete in the regional series, and is highly recommended, you can purchase on the day, but you can race without a BRCA membership for up to 3 races, but you will not be able to score points for the regional championship as I have said. You do need BRCA approved batteries, but come along and have a go, if your batteries are not up to spec we will loan you some that are!!! See you sunday!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! |

Just to clarify though, I thought the 2wd being 'open' meant it was outside of the BRCA regional series? Rules on batteries and membership still apply? Have an older Trakpower 4900 pack (no BRCA sticker) but should have a newer BRCA approved one by Sunday... just need to borrow a bit of power from somewhere! Will register on the day if I'm going to race - for future reference what is the email address to use? Cheers |

Email address is on here: http://www.edenparkraceway.com/
The membership is also insurance if you get injured, if you intend on racing often this year then it's worth the few quid it costs and why clubs need people to be registered. There will be someone there with available power, i will have my 12v with me if you need some. |

No sorry Alan, handouts only, we've got the software but we're still saving for the AMB Decoder and you know how much they are
![]() ![]() Drivers should be prepared with an approx. 6mm hole in their bodyshells! It's obviously been very wet here today and we won't know 'til we get there tomorrow what, if any, impact this has had on the grass pitting area next to the track. Watch this space and we'll post any changes to the normal pitting arrangements if the club advise us of any. We're hoping the ground will drain as quickly as it usually does but we'll advise! |

Though we had a lot of rain yesterday the groundstaff have confirmed that we can still park trackside. There is some standing water and the grass is still a little wet so please take care when parking and respect the surafce and the grounds!
Also please note that there will be a comprehensive footabll programme tomorrow so we ask that you park as close to the track as possible, single file and spread yourselves out along the embankment. And please, please, please do not arrive TOO EARLY, respect our neighbours and the track will not be open for practice until 08:30 anyway! We have some exciting new technology that's been installed today thanks to Matt and Tom, those of you with wireless laptops may benefit! Many thanks, see you all there! Oh and don't forget those trophy presentations! And we've secured some interesting little bonuses for the U13 and U16 age groups! Last edited by brookie; 18-04-2009 at 09:20 PM.
