Hi all

Not out again for the rest of the summer, going to play with the big stuff, turning right on the ovals with the escort, so it's Buxton this weekend for me. May try and do some Worksop meets in winter.

Hope the rest of the series goes well.

Cheers

Howdies, i'll be coming along, Matt White tells me he isnt.

Forecast looks a bit dodge unfortunately, better in the morning but showers pm

Should be good anyway, better than grass in the rain !

[blitzboy]

ok just got the heads up from paul gennies is a must no power is available but we can pit in the shed as usual oh and lastly the track has changed guys so going for a sneaskypraccy on thursday but got some shells to paint ,,,,Question is has paul built the wall of death well have to wait and see will keep you posted guys ,, don t think charlie will be there he was last seen at the euros sneaking around :bored:wish i was there but hey roll on sunday

[MattW]

Be surprised if Charlie has appeared in Italy, as last time i saw him was on the outskirts of Brussels, heading to Calais on Sunday evening :woot:

[blitzboy]

thanks the heads up mr white, where is charlie? will he be at eastrax?

[MattW]

Like i say, the Americal pimp wagon was last seen in our rear view mirror - heading back from Belgian GP to dover. No idea what his plans for the weekend were.

As James said, i won't be there.

For anyone asking about tyres on the previous thread, I'd use Yellow minispikes in the dry, and ballistic greens in the wet. Yellow staggar ribs are also an option in 2wd. Last time i tested there, i preferred them as they actually seemed to give more steering, although Nathan didn't like them.

[telboy]

I'll be there, as will Mr Hudson...as I bring him with me.:)

[blitzboy]

tel mister is on tour wheeee see ya there mate hope your ready for the grave yard mate :thumbsup:

[telboy]

Why are we going walkabout to visit some nice places while we are there?:p

Is it that bad? I have no spares for the X6.:thumbdown:

[blitzboy]

mmmm well let s put it this way mate last years broken parts ended up in a mound in the pitting area and it was nt a small pile mate but u ll be ok mate its normally just shock towers and wish bones that get broken but saying that the track is better these days as it was the tripple that took out most of us and its benn slowed down now with a big bend just before it hehehehe but on the other hand paul has changed the track since so you never know we may have a wall of death now :thumbsup:

[blitzboy]

ok guys here the latest i ve not been down for a sneaky peak for a practice but from what i can gather there is nt much in the way of changes apart from the straights have been change so we ll all have to wait and see if the grave yard has been tamed down abit and is the tripple still there ???? whos coming guys weather look s to be good so we may be in for a dry run wheee :thumbsup:

[SimonW]

All i can say is hairpin-straight-hairpin-straight etc, get the picture

[tak racing]

Been down today, new rostrum built and much heigher than the trailer but not covered. Wel done Paul it looks good.

Track is really no different to before except for the short section before the tripples is straighter.

See you Sunday, weather looks to be OK!
