Cheers Wraggy - do you know if theres likely to be a shop on site mate ?

Wraggy

PBM will deffo be there:thumbsup:

Like Wraggy says schuey yellows in the dry and if its wet then personally i prefer ballistic blues or even cat spikes if it really wet but it all depends on how wet it is really. PBM are well stocked though so all will be available.

What has been said is all good. I would just add that Ballistic "green" spikes are a very safe bet for wet conditions on grass.

Just to remind everyone, Booking closes on Friday but you can still turn up on the day, if you do then you will be in a mixed ability reserve heat.

If your out of region or don't want to enter the regional series, but still want a days racing / practice then just give me your details on here for the open heats, again by Friday.

Thanks and see you all on Sunday at the Anglia Motel, Fleet Hargate, Just off the A17 between Holbeach and Long Sutton.

Ah - we can call it a straight tenner ;)

Yeah close racing all day today mate - fair play i enjoyed it ! Just a shame i seemed to of lost all ability as usual during the final. Was leading for about a lap and a bit before it all went pear shaped. :(

Awesome skills by Nathan and Adam in the A Final - was great to watch :thumbsup:

Top result for Skelders, Regional A Final win for the Cyber 10!!!:thumbsup:

Kicko, bottomo!!

Some excellent 'gentlemanly driving from Nathan after the collission over the tripple. The two were no more than 4ft appart for virtually the whole final!! Top driving.


Excellent meeting, Great track, flowing layout, top weather!! What more could you ask for?

Good work guys.

1st ever Mid East regional I've attended I think, and it won't be the last.

Track was good, could have been a little bit longer, but I guess the Microlight landing strip took precedence.

Final was really good, enjoyed the full race-long race, although I still don't know why Nathan waited for me, I'd made the mistake over the first part of the triple, Nathan hitting the back of me was unavoidable.

Looking forward to the next 4wd......:thumbsup:
