Sunday 4th April

[chrispattinson]

Seems a while since I did some graft, so I'll volunteer to pick the computer etc up from someone for this weekends racing, and I'll run race control.

I'll need someone there who knows how to lock up though.
Chris.

[Dalla]

I have the computer etc.

Can we confirm numbers, so if you are intending to come this Sunday then drop a yes onto this thread.

The current list is:
Chris
Me

[Scoobster]

We will be there but just to run in between rounds again if thats OK

[chris68nufc]

Im going, so thats 3!


Its really hard work getting the track back into the garage so there will have to be plenty people turn up!

Anybody else fancy it?

[chrispattinson]

2WD and 4WD for me!

[chris68nufc]

Wasnt there a rule that said if there werent 10 people then we couldnt race?

I will still be up for it if we are ALLOWED!!

Plenty practice thats what im thinking!!

[turbobrick]

There wasn't a rule regarding 10 people, what was said is it takes 10 people to pay the rent and that the club can't go indefinitely making up the shortfall.

At present though your 3 month trial regarding evening racing ain't looking too hot, were's all these people that would DEFINITELY race if it was on an evening.

[chris68nufc]

No. Tuesdays were the bomb. Used to be loads
Bring back Tuesdays, bring back Tuesdays,bring back tuesdays

[turbobrick]

Chris, go make an effort and find somewhere to race on a Tuesday,

Hello

We are going sunday, assumin we get sunday lunch over by then, Hmm turkey!

What happened to the people who raced 2 weeks ago. It was a totally different set of people to those who raced last week. What happened to you all? Is it the prospect of coming against people who are just simply to fast for their own good and of other slower drivers around them. Are they frightening people off. I don't blame you really!!

If enough people turn up and it it finishes at a reasonable time then come along. If there are the numbers we can have own own heat with sensible drivers in it!!!
Keith

[baD]

Count me in as one more.
If anyone has spare ZX-5 bits, would they bring them along, as I might need to buy some

see you there

[pugs]

I have a trf501x in the for sale section, buy that Bill...you won't break nothing compared to the zx-5

Whats that supposed to mean? If you have a fast car then you are not welcome?
I think last week was really good as did mostly everybody i spoke to after we were finished.

Quality again Peter from you!

Believe me, if there was anywhere else to race on a week night i would be there however until that time i will try my best to get there on a Sunday night.

[chrispattinson]

Looking forward to racing tonight.
I'll do race control, probably on auto though.
First Qualifier on the line @ 19:00
Keith, Ill keep you out of my heat, Im too fast for my own good!!
Seriously though, if there was bad driving, it should be rectified on the night, and reported to the race director. I would hate to think peoples wreckless driving is ruining it for others. Lets be honest here though and name names... was it Pack?

[chris68nufc]

Last week Keith was in Emilys,Peters and Stephen Adams heat. I cant understand where the problem was.
Keith?? Can you post your reasons?

[mr emily]

I was not in the 4wd drive final, just an interested onlooker/marshall. I watched a poor race and marshalled a lot!!!

keith

[chris68nufc]

Thats why i was unsure what you meant.

Do you think that having all of the 4wd cars in the same final created a problem? Personally i did.

The track is too small and tight to have 9 or so cars going nuts round it.
It would probably put the slower drivers off if they are getting lapped after 2 laps.

Im sure that we were struggling for time thats why it was done. Race directors decision is final

[chrispattinson]

Fair enough, I wasnt there, but 9 cars sounds like a lot. Max 6 I would say. It also means that making the A is a bit more of a challenge, rather than every man and his dog getting into it.
