Maybe we want to know what the carpet will be like so people can have some sort of starting setup? because last year i ended up with spacers all over the place on my car and an anti roll bar.

Howay man! It's off-road! Expect the unexpected! Can't believe people are getting the knickers in a twist over carpet grip levels on a track that hasn't even been laid yet.

Sounds more like a "snoring" car conversation to me!!!

[bigred5765]

cant you let us know about electric as i have no battery and only use power supply and it a good 2.30-3 hours for us

[Northy]

I don't care what the carpet is like, thanks for answering my questions.

Is there mains available?

G

[Lee]

There will definatley be A mains

Probably B, C, and D mains as well


Sorry i couldn`t resist

[notlawnomis]

Yeah Lee your right!! as for the electric, as it says in my earlier post, Chris will confirm I'm sure as soon as he reads this. I would find it very hard to believe that a worlds event would be held there if no electric was available.

I know some seem to think we are in Scotland but we do have electricity this far up

[chrispattinson]

From what I rememeber, there are power points on the walls, so power will be there, but it will be upto drivers and pit crew to distribute it throughtout the pit areas with extensions etc.

I am waiting for an email back from the centre today regarding this.

I am also going to look at the venue tonight or tomorrow night, so I will know better then.

Does anyone have any special requests for when I go to the centre?? Perhaps a drinks price list from the bar, a menu, colour scheme of the hall etc?

[Lee]

Chris, could you run from one end of the hall to the other, so we get an idea of how big it is.

Cheers

Lee

i'v raced a buggy at this venue before
the hall is big if anybody attended the worlds in 1998 we will have 2/3rd's of that hall.
they do have power.
and the track will be a challenge.

simon what time is everybody getting there on the saturday to build?

[chrispattinson]

2PM onwards at Temple Park, though we are unsure at the moment what time in the morning we will need to get stuff from Chuter Ede etc.

[Chequered Flag Racing]

12th BRCA National held @ this venue and they stipulate 240v supply for their events.

[Chrislong]

Will the track be clockwise, or anti-clockwise?
(just cos you love the questions)

[Lee]

It might be a figure of 8


Next!!

[chrispattinson]

Temple Park have confirmed that there are power sockets on the perimeter wall of the pitting area and track area.

12V batts are allowed if in leak proof container.

The centre doors will be open at 7:30 AM.

upside down

[nobby]

ok tell us what you would like to see.
how big and how many jump's?
do you want the track to flow or be very twisty.

we wellcome any input.

[Northy]

I'd like to see every jump have a downramp (we tried to do this at York, only one small jump didn't), as it makes them much better.

That'll do for me.

[Lee]

Same for me, also keep in mind a flowing track provides cleaner racing.

Im not going to tell people how to build a track or complain on the day if its not to my liking, i know there are some experienced racers designing the track and i know the amount of time that goes into setting up and organising a meeting like this.

[nobby]

thanks lads we'll do are best.
