who`s playing vintage this week then

Meeeeeeee! Have some tyres sorted now, still no oil in the shocks, but hey, you can't have everything!

Don't forget, for everyone looking to run vintage, make sure you have your modern car with you in case the numbers don't work in our favour!

Just to let everyone know, as we have the micro national on Sunday we may have a few more people visiting the club to get some practice in (maybe) so the more the merrier

So who's getting the keys this week?

Errrmmm any chance we could postpone this Vintage round 'till next week?

I've got this 2wd micro-thingy to race in the National at the weekend, i suppose i had better do at least one practice night with it... and im not good at doing 2 different classes in one night

looks likely vintage may be postponed again then due to lack of participants.

Booo
(yes I know I'm guilty of not racing vintage too!)
I know Phil was hoping to run, and Dave Jackson has got his Cougar nearly ready to go.
Chris was running his boring car yesterday so don't know if he was planning on swapping the electrics back into his RC10 or not

Dont worry, this is a one-off ! Name another date for the Vintage and the Astute will be there !

But for the sake of my pride and the other competitors i should really have at least one practice with the Chunk before i race a National...

On another note, i ran at Telford Hot Trax last week ( great club ), and i got Steve Haynes ( ex-Tamiya Factory driver late 80s/early 90's ) to run my TRF Astute for a round... first time he had run an Astute in 20 years, and he seemed to have enjoyed himself with it - he was quick with it as well

So now its been run by a 'proper' driver, hopefully some of Steves skill will have been absorbed by the car and i might have a better chance of keeping up with Martin next round.. or maybe not..

whats the minimum required to run a vintage heat friday then, for those of us who dont race micro .
