Will this be the format for every round with respect to practice? Most of us can run for 20 minutes with one set of cells now, so we are going to end up with 40 guys on the rostrum for the whole time as far as I can see if that is the case?

Practice should be timed. 5 mins sessions.

This is the format for Sunday the 9th of March as based on pre entries this is what I decided for this meeting as it was easy to MANAGE ! With the more entries like we will have in 2wd we will go down the timed practice route as Paul mentioned but that does mean someone there with a stopwatch timing every round ( any volunteers for doing that!) so I am hoping people can be fair to everyone and not go up and do 20mins on a pack of cells!

Just remember everyone this is my first year of organising it and trying to make it a great race series for years to come! But there will be a lot of trial and error on the way please support me with your feedback but not in public as I feel that is not fair on everyone that puts there time aside to help organising these events

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 :)
