Just like to say thank you to all 18 drivers who raced last night, helping to put the track out and putting it away after another good nights racing.

The carpet was extended by 6mts and the track opened out to allow the buggies more room, this made a big difference to the flow of the track.

We also had a couple of new faces who came down for a look and I think they will be popping down to Radio Racers to have a word with Shaun.

Ben has taken a few pictures that he will put up over the weekend.

All I have to do is get the printer to work all night!!

See you Next Friday

Peter

Another good night on Friday.

We had 21 racers, 2 heats of buggies and a full heat of Mardaves.

I think all the lads had a good nights racing.

Next week I'm thinking of splitting the buggies into 2 and 4 wheel drive instead of just on ability, what do you think?

If you think od anything the club could do to improve the racing just post on here and we will look into it.

Cheers

Peter

What a good way to end the year, 24 racers, 4 finals and still new faces turning up every week.

Just like to say a big thank you to all the lads who helped with the track.

The quicker we get the track up the more time we have racing, that's why we could run 4 finals.

The club wishes all racers a very good Christmas and hope Santa brings you all new toys to play with.

Next meeting 7th Jan 2011

Peter

Your more than welcome Michael.

We had 32 racers last week, 13 Mardaves and 19 Buggies so if we have the same this Friday we will be running 4 heats which will give you a bit more time between races.

Pete just to say last Friday was really enjoyable. Very relaxed and friendly. I'll definitely be doing as many Friday's as possible in the future.
Unfortunately work commitments make it difficult to attend for the next three/four weeks, then hopefully I’ll be back on track.

Default Record Numbers at RVRCCC

There were 57 racers at RVRCCC last Friday and I think our race controler Peter did a fantastic job and Barbara too booking in racers.

You usually only get these numbers at weekend meets when you have plenty of time to book racers in so if Peter and Barbara looked harrassed at times dont be surprised.

I would like to thank all the racers who came because its you who make the event.

Eric
Chairman
