well i rekon the cross over was crap !!!
but only if you are a pleb that doesnt do off road. ( smileys ,,, look i am joking , haha !!!)
i struggled to string laps together all day ( pleb) BUT surely thats all part of it ? getting the timing right was a major part of it and as said before ( alot ) you aint gonna learn if you dont do meetings like this !
i just wanna say from my point of view it was ace, it was like a mini DXR track for lecy's
just missing the dirt
any ideas how many square feet the hall was , including the outer perimmiter and the pitting area !!!
got to figure out how to raise enough cash to sort a unit and fill it full of dirt
keep up the good work andy nik pidge and ANYONE who had anything wot so ever to do with organizing the best indoor electric meet i have ever attended
cant wait for the next installment !!!!!!

No keep the thread open as it is great to hear people talking and being excited again about racing. Negative or positive comments, bring it on.

i'd be more than happy to go back & race the exact same layout again

easier than learning a new track

people now know what to expect so let them vote with their entrys

i reckon you'll have even more wanting to do the next one

I mucked up the x over a couple of times but only due to over exouberance, the jumps are ace and the cross over should stay, we will be looking at refining it maybe a longer exit or posibly reinforcing the track markers / bariers which may be knocked out of place with sand filled fire hose betwnn 2 barriers, the track lay out with the straight at the back and the tecnical stuff at the front is to me a great idea ( and one which I sugested when we built the track )


if anyone has any spare primafelt carpet let us know ta


And andy aka ginger fixit can shout all he likes without his efforts, comitment, and large investment this event and more importantly newbury rc club would never be.


Well done andy

I agree also, Andy does put a lot of his own time into the club/Events, so I think he deserves a pat on the back.

Although he does shout a bit now and again
