worksop

Don't think so, I need some stuff before I can run the new Tamiya (just wire / connectors and tyres etc) so I will have to miss it as I wont have them in time.

Thats a shame looks like it is going to be a good one, with TCs and buggys at the same event.

[jimmy]

I should have got the bits I needed sooner really, but I forgot! I can take photos of the 501X with old tyres on - but it's not really the done thing!

[Northy]

Jimmy, are you racing team vintage endurance? Are you racing vintage on saturday night?

Well, after a bad start with power cuts and a lot more people booking in on the day than expected, it went reasonably well once things got going, all be it a bit late.

The track was a bit tight (a bit like a t.c. 'club' track more than an off road/on road split track) but the jumps were challenging and a little querky. Not sure what the 'drop off' jump was all about, would've been better with a up-down table top realy.

It was funny though to here the off roaders getting a 'little' stressed with the slow and unenthusiastic touring car marshalls that aren't used to having to move so much when marshalling.

I was Taking pictures all day but the hall was so damn dark it was to much for the fuji to take even on the settings jimmy told me. I will put some on here that came out 'reasonably' well ( no where near jimmy's standard though)

jimmy spenncers car was so hot looking a thought i saw it smoking once or twice lol sorry spenc

[Spencer Mulcahy]

All sorted now Carl realy thought it was my speedo. Was panicking about my new shell as well, the track was disapointing being so tight but we all have to race on whatever is put in front of you. PS Loved the XX4 when it wasnt smoking just a few nigles to sort and it will be fantastic.

[bigred5765]

loved the track,even old bald tyres work

I don't know about others that made the long (ish) haul to worksop, but I was dissapointed. But first the good points: the track (especially the surface) was superb, even the wierd "features" were nice purely because they were different. The venue was good (after the power was sorted out) and the lasses in the bar calling everyone "duck" and bread buns and sandwiches "cobs" always had a smile. However, the bad points: we did pre-book via the e-mail posted earlier in this thread and 2 of the 3 failed to get pre-booked so we had to pay the stupidly expensive £10 rather than £7 to race. So after that was sorted, we filled our details in on bits of paper and the heat listings went up, only for us to be missed off again!!

4 long hours after the doors opened, the racing manged to get under way ( but not before untested transponder issues, incorrect starting lines and other totally forseeable problems held us back) and we were told that it would be 2 rounds and a final for £10!! Not overly impressed at all! Still, fair play the the guys running the meet - once it was under way, things improved alot and 3 rounds and a final were ran with me making 9th in the A and crashing out on the first lap!!

All said and done, I did enjoy the day alot but it should have been so much better!
