Teesside 2wd & 4wd Regional

[tc2k]

So, regional this weekend. Hopefully will be sun all around as weathers been nice up here. Any guesses on the winners with people doing well at the national this weekend, will anyone be up for it.

What’s the surface like this weekend? I realise it’s grass but what kind, dense and grippy (Batley like) or sparse and slippy(NERCR 2wd like?

For the guys that ran the nationals this weekend, any chance of a gentleman’s agreement not to run new tyres at any point???

Predictions, usual suspects, Bulk, Rich, Tom, Ben if he holds it together for a whole 2 qualifiers AND a final (optimistic).

Im just hoping to make the A again, i think Mr Lowe will take 4wd as the BJ4 is like a guided missile at the moment, 2wd is a lot more even, ill go for Craig Collinson.

[Richard Lowe]

Don't discount that Greenwood chap in 2wd, he's been quick recently

I'm running my tires from Bury, I'm sure Ben will go through 3 sets each day as usual

[LEGEND]

From what i remember, I think it may be a bit like batley but i am a bit unsure, I may go and have a look tonight to get an idea. As for results i think Richard Lowe or Criag collinson for 4wd and for 2wd it would either be Dan Greenwood or Tom Cockeril.

[super__dan]

Lee, are you the chap I talked too about jumping at Batley indoor meeting?

[chrispattinson]

I'll go for Richard Lowe in 4WD, just ahead of Craig C and Snee. Dan Greenwood in 2WD, just ahead of Rich and Craig. (no pressure guys).

I'll be aiming to sneak into my second A final of the season, in Reading like 9th or 10th position.

[super__dan]

Holy smokes, I'm not right keen on all this pressure, I prefer the Rocky Balboa approach!

[super__dan]

VERY good skills ace are you fully converted or do you still race the shite touring cars occasionally?

like Batley or it was last time we raced there some 5 or 6 years back now

but without the rain we've missed over the last few months to keep it lush it'll be thin on top like my dome by the EOR 3 on the corners

Weather report much better, good news on the grass, looking forward to it.

[Lee]

I know people are saying the grass is like batleys, but what is batleys grass like for those who have never been there.

cheers

Grass is to the British what snow is to the Eskimo's. They have 100 kinds too...

Still pants weather. Never remembered a year being this wet, its june and we've had some sun but only in one or two day spurts.

[tc2k]

Hasnt rained all day and the sun is starting to come out, just my bluddy luck, effing BBC

[Lee]

It was a good day, even got warm at times, there was a few showers but nothing to really soak the track
