Newcastle R.C. Racers @ TyneMet

Well another decent turn out last night with around 20 drivers on the track. Nice to see Buckle back helping keep the buggy heat going which ahs been strangely quiet the past few weeks, maybe down to a couple of drivers seeing the light switching back to TC’s ;-)
Hopefully a few more of the buggy’s back next week to give a bit more competition in that class.
Also don’t forget as we approach the end of the year, the AGM will be in January sometime at which point I’ll be stepping down as chairman so anyone else who fancies the job, give it some thought. I already have an idea of who I think will do the best job of it but it’s not my choice, first we need someone who is willing to do it and then for the club to vote them in!

See you all Monday

[lazysurfer]

Ok guys early warning of dates for your diary that we are NOT unning over the xmas period.
24th December and 31st December
I'm fairly sure none of you will be dissapointed at missing xmas eve and new years eve - any one who is - you need to get out more..........

[lazysurfer]

Also for any of you who don't get or don't read the emails, the AGM will be in January, probably the second or third week and I'll be stepping down as chairman so anyone who fancies running the club, give it some thought and start your election campaign

[lazysurfer]

No probs Haggis. One off visitors as welcome as anyone :-)

[lazysurfer]

Ok the weekly reminder to get sorted for racing on Monday - and a few more buggies would be nice for those who have been a little lonely in the buggy heat recently L
And hopefully so I don’t have to mention anything tomorrow, please, the issues from last week………….

See you all bright and early J 7pm

Yellow Schumacher Full Spikes front and rear are best on the polished wooden floor but Yellow Schumacher Mini Spikes front and rear will work just as well

[slipdigby]

I will be there on Monday with my buggy trying to keep up with the fast lads...
Was going to say most run the soft yellow Schumacher spikes but just got beat to that as well!!!!

Your up late!!!!

[haggis]

Got a set of knackered mini spikes and a set of mixed mini pins. Should be able to get a working set up.

See you all tomoro!!!!

[lazysurfer]

Well a little quiet last night with only 14 on track, maybe down to the weather and closed roads. 8TC’s and 7 buggies (yes I know that’s not 14 before some smart ar$e points it out - Boblet changed mid meet), including a one off visitor from north of the border. Nice to have you join us Haggis - hope you enjoyed the venue and racing.
Hope to see you all again next week

[haggis]

Last night was really good guys. Well organised and fantastic racing.

Hopefully I can get down again sometime!

[lazysurfer]

Running out of things to say to get you lot along racing on Mondays - get there for 7 and you can drool over the Zumba girls for the last 5 minutes of their class???

That’ll be Ray back then
See you all Monday

[lazysurfer]

A decent turn out again last night with 18 racing, 13 TC’s and 5 buggies. Obviously the buggy lads set out a lot of the track resulting in 3 jumps for a change!
Thanks to Clarky for giving a few driving hints to the TC lads. More Top Tips to come next week hopefully.
And the Zumba girls were finished on time for once - first time for everything - maybe they heard Ray was coming along early to watch
See you all next Monday
Mark

Just a reminder of the weeks we're off over xmas - Monday 24th December and Monday 31st December - not that I would expect many to want to race those two nights anyway!!!

[nobby]

I would

[furball85]

i have purchased a touring car off one of the members that sold up couple months ago was wondering what gearing/motors you guys are using as already have mini pins both yellow and green, i have also purchased a durango 410r buggy and just wondering what gearing/motors your using as i know their usually higher turn will pop along next monday to have a look and a chat.

[lazysurfer]

A busy night again last night with 20 racing - 13 TC’s and 7 Buggies with Nev & Hindson returning to the dark side last night. Sad to hear that Luke is selling up after a bad week last week according to Steve. A bad week is no reason to give up, I’ve had about 2 months now since my car has been even drivable (Clarky spotted a problem with it last night so hopefully better next week) so get yourself back next week Luke and give it another go.
If not there’s an almost new B44 full setup with radio, li-po’s & charger ready to run up for grabs for anyone interested or anyone just starting out.

See you all next week for the last meeting of the year

Cheers
