Hi,

I know I'm not going to be regularly racing in your region but did hope to do a few as a "guest" to try out some of the tracks.

20mins practice seems a very short amount to get everybody through, even if you limit everyone to 5mins and only allow 1min for change over it still means you can only get 3 heats worth of cars (30 or so) through.

I'm just interested in how practice works in your region :)

This should answer your question we dont have a huge turnout for 4wd so very easy to manage.

Just to confirm once again....Booking in from 8-9am.

Regional racers are only allowed to practice during 9-9:20am. Practice will now be run in 5 min stopwatched sessions in your heat order during this period.

Club racers can practice either side of this on the open track as usual. Keep an ear out for announcements in the morning :)
