Hi all,
Following the recent success of the MK GP and a consultation with the Chairman we have decided to run 3 maybe 4 Sunday meetings on selected dates in December, January, February and possibly March.:thumbsup:
The Schumacher Winter Champs that currently run on Friday nights will not be affected but as a club we would like to try different things as to encourage and give everyone more opportunity to race.
The fine details are yet to be decided but the dates will be posted asap.
Any feedback would be much appreciated.;)
RR.

Ok, my only problem is how would i get it working in a xx4? Having the steering arm in the way of the windscreen makes it impossible to put under the shell. Can they be mounted outside?
Belsten

Sorrry guys have I missed something here about the lap counting system ?
Southwell
21-11-2008, 01:52 PM
Infared system. Plugs into your receiver and links to a bar above the track.

21-11-2008, 04:04 PM
officially we like them inside the shell to protect them but we will make an exception but its not ideal but dont panic we will sort you guys out
thanks Andy :thumbsup:

Hi all,
Sorry for the delay but I am pleased to announce that the 1st Sunday meeting will be on the 21st of December.:thumbsup:
The schedule for this meeting will be 2wd in the morning and then 4wd in the afternoon.
Times will be announced soon and are of course subject to entries.
Entry fee will be £10 for 1 class and £15 for both. Bargin!
I hope the date will be okay for most of you but there will be dates in January, February and maybe march TBA.
Please pre book if possible via this thread or at www.newburyrcclub.co.uk (http://www.newburyrcclub.co.uk) from tomoz but entries on the day are more than welcome.
Any ideas or feedback are always appreciated.
RR.
Top job!
I certainly intend on being there.
Any idea yet how many rounds you plan for each class and the sort of times you reckon it will start/finish?
Just so I know if its worth me getting my 2wd running again :)

As your just twenty or so miles from me I may be up for some fun, definately come last but will be fun. This is carpet, and if so what tyres are recommended for the surface?
Southwell

Mini pins always. You can get away with yellow spikes but you will be a bit slower.

Hey Mark, cheers for the offer but unfortunately i'm actually away now! We're off on honeymoon on the 23rd so are seeing Family up in surrey that weekend as we're not seeing them at Christmas
Why don't you race it though? Would be good to hear how it goes!!

yo Flanders
is it worth starting a new topic for the all day meeting on the 21st so people can show their interest?
pretty sure there should be plenty of people wanting to race the best indoor jump track there is :woot:
last chance for most of us this year too ;)
