2007 NE Outdoor Regional Dates!

[Antony]

Mr G Northy,

When will the dates for the NE Regional’s be finalised, because I'm trying the plan a weekend away for the miss' birthday and at the moment there is a 4WD regional 'provisionally' highlighted for 22nd April.

As you'll appreciate I have to ensure my priorities are covered first, before even considering hers!!!

Also, while I’m on the subject, any chance of swapping the Batley regional’s around so that the 4WD is on the Saturday 30th June and not Sunday 1st July.

Best of British old boy.

Tony.

PS: I think others would like confirmation too!?!

Cue Emily's growling!!

Batley + 4wd = love.

Emily + Saturdays = tears.

[Northy]

Don't know.

[Antony]

I can not believe that I have found a subject that you know bugger all about!

1-0 Tony!

[Col]

Personally, I think all 2WD should be sat and all 4WD should be sun. It confuses the hell out of me when things start getting moved over from one event to the next:confused:

[Barry Williams]

Lets face it col, doesnt take much to confuse you matey:wtf: lol
Agree with you there Gaz, Col doesnt know the difference between a Turnip & a Toffee apple so this switching of days will confuse him loads!!!!!;)
It might make his head explode!!!!!!!!!:D

Oh, so does Batley still have an outdoor track then??

[andys]

Oscar.

Explain yourself, what do you mean about the batley outdoor track, youv'e got me worried now ?

Andy.

[Col]

several points here:

1: I'm confused allready and have forgot point 1.

2: I work every saturday.

3: What IS the difference between a turnip and a toffee apple?

4: Booking saturdays off - that's what holiday allocation is for

5: This year I will only be racing sundays in 4WD, so I guess that's my F rating out the window...

[emzy]

It was still there last week... No roof on the rostrum, but still there...

(I couldn't resist doing a drive by!)

Dunno about points 1,2 4 & 5 but i do know that Turnips grow on trees & Toffee apples are made out of potato:p

[Col]

Thanks for clearing that up Barry

[gazbaz2]

I wouldnt like to eat your toffee aples barry if there made out of potato, i thought they were made out of toffee and marsipan with a stick on the end, I LIKE MARSIPAN:confused:

[bigred5765]

I wouldnt like to eat your toffee aples barry if there made out of potato, i thought they were made out of toffee and marsipan with a stick on the end, I LIKE MARSIPAN:confused:

And marsipan is made on mars
thats why its so light
i hate marsipan
but like sticks:)

[telboy]

its getting close to the season starting and need to know where i'm racing.;)

[Northy]

Not out yet, not sure what the hold up is. I'll send an email and see whats holding the job up.

G

[gazbaz2]

Hi G i think it might be our end thats holding things up, just waiting for the goahead from preston park, i'll give them a ring and try n get something from them

Gaz

[telboy]

Are we nearly there yet?:eh?: Are we nearly there yet?:o Are we nearly there yet?:wtf: ...........................

[emzy]

Preston Park! Awh, blast from the past!

[Col]

I've heard good things about Preston Park. Gaz, pull your finger out and make it happen!

[bigred5765]

Preston park,??
in lancs near me o o please say its near me another track locally
i bet its not

[Northy]

Well it is closer to you Carl as its in Yarm, just before the boro.

G

[barnyard]

is that where the euros was in 98 i think, i know jukka won on some random medial pro things that needed major surgery to fit properly and have never been seen since

[Barry Williams]

Yep thats the place, near Yarm. Would be in the massive grass car park if it gets the go ahead, keep your fingers crossed as they used to be some great weekends there, Regionals,Schumacher weekends, fire engine rally all used to host big buggy events, hope we can get the go ahead.

[Northy]

No need for the special tyres :)

G

[Chequered Flag Racing]

just in case it's on there, sure hope so to :)

Preston Hall Museum and Park
Yarm Road,
Eaglescliffe,
Stockton-on-Tees
TS18 3RH

[emzy]

We used to have school trips to Preston Park when I was in the Infants / Juniors... awwh. Butterfly World is immense!

Many a happy trip spent there... I remember sitting on one of the big grassy hills eating a sandwich with my arm in a sling after I'd broken my arm... happy times.

[barnyard]

Not sure why thats so good but i think we could replicate it

Exactly how and who would break your arm will need to be discussed but if it makes you happy then so be it.




p.s. what flavour sarnies would you like?

[tc2k]

Hope the preston park thing goes ahead. Thatll be 2 regionals within 5 minutes of me :D
Plus theres crazy golf!

[LEGEND]

i really do hope it is at preston park. I only live in ingleby, which is less than five minutes away an di could probably bike there and it would take about 10-20 mins. But the best part is, i wouldn't have to ask anyone for a lift, my mum would actually be willing to take me.

How cool is that.:D

I could even go down one weekend with my buggy in my bag and some charged batterys to get in a little practise.

[Barry Williams]

Hope the preston park thing goes ahead. Thatll be 2 regionals within 5 minutes of me :D

Josh there would only be one regional in Teesside as the Teesdale club is in a state of flux at the moment due to their track being damaged & the track may be developed upon by the owners of the land. The regional would be a joint effort between both clubs as i understand it.
Leggy, you couldn't practice there as there would be no track apart from when (& if) the regional weekend goes ahead, plus the council would have to approve use of the area so no realistic chance of getting in any practice.

Barry

[tc2k]

Aye barry, got confused with the indoor one at teesside :o
But the minaiture railway, crazy golf and mental peacocks there would surely bring everyone from all around! :D

Also, how on earth can you take your stuff on a bike :o

[telboy]

have I missed something here?:confused:

Where has preston park come from all of a sudden.......and no sarcastic answers like 'well, its been there for hundreds of years!'.:wtf:

[Barry Williams]

Preston Park is where Teesside club are hoping to hold regionals this year. About 5-6 years ago they used to be held there through TRCC. Since the potential problem with Teesdale not being able to run, both clubs have spoken to each other & Preston Park is a possible alternative venue, but it is down to local council approval, hence the delay in getting an answer.

[Col]

So preston park will be run on flat grass? (like York outdoor regional) For some reason I thought there was a proper track there! Never mind

[bretts]

Time to dust down your 7 single then Col eh?

[Northy]

It's far from flat! :o

[telboy]

...but are we any closer to knowing the venues and dates?


...and I've only got 38 toy cars in a small collection, but I'm very happry with them......Its not size that matters.:o

[LiamD]

i really do hope it is at preston park. I only live in ingleby, which is less than five minutes away an di could probably bike there and it would take about 10-20 mins. But the best part is, i wouldn't have to ask anyone for a lift, my mum would actually be willing to take me.

Get a trailer for your bike to put your racing gear in, do your paper round, then go racing.

[emzy]

Not sure why thats so good but i think we could replicate it

p.s. what flavour sarnies would you like?

Haha, my arm came pre-broken that time!

Rollerskates, dangerous things... especially when standing still...

Sarnies... mmm... I quite fancy a good chicken mayonnaise, or a nice chicken tikka, not too much garlic though. I'm a bit peckish actually. Can I have some Quavers as well?

[telboy]

:( but do we know owt yet?

[telboy]

Anyone?

at this rate we'll only have a couple of days to get our entries in.:D

[Antony]

Anyone?

at this rate we'll only have a couple of days to get our entries in.:D

It's probably best to sit back and wait for the 2007/08 indoor regionals to be announced first!!

[tc2k]

Does anyone know the order the regionals usually go on or are they changed every year?

[Col]

Josh, the way I read it is that both the order and the days (ie 2wd sat and 4wd sun) are changed yearly to suit whoever complains the loudest.

I WOULD LIKE ALL 4WD EVENTS ON SUNDAYS PLEASE!!
(that's as loud as I can type):mad: :)

[telboy]

I'm sure you could type louder if you tried col!

honest.;)

[emzy]

You know what? I'M WITH YOU COL!!

I think exams are going to rule me this year... and I want to keep my F3 so I don't end up an F5 for the year I come back from Chile! Forward thinking you see! So yaay, 4wd Sundays all the way! And none late August...

[tc2k]

Nooo 2wd sundays

[Col]

I'm sure you could type louder if you tried col!

honest.;)

gobshite....:)

[telboy]

haha!:D

But seriously, I think 4wd should be sundays cos thats what I'll be running:)

[Northy]

If the dates come out as expected it will be possible for people to do the minimum number of rounds to count in both 2wd and 4wd if they can only race on a Sunday.

Is that ok for you all? :)

G

[Oscar]

Common sense prevails :):)

[Northy]

Ah, but there is a problem with common sense John, and thats that its not bloody common enough!!!!! :D

G

[Col]

I think 4wd should be sundays cos thats what I'll be running:)

Nice one Tel. What you running?

[emzy]

Is that ok for you all? :)

G

No its not! :D

Because THEN the exams come into play...!!! And I'll cry if there's a 4wd one on the 8th July... I think I'll end up crying no matter what to be honest, deary dear.

[telboy]

Nice one Tel. What you running?

Hopefully, the hotbodies cyclone d4. adam is being kind and taking pitty on me now that I'm jobless :D :D

I'm realy looking forward to it. Realy can't wait.

[mark christopher]

[bigred5765]

Sunday 12th July 4wd Round 5 at Batley

[footey]

[Northy]

Sorry, copied and pasted from Dereks email. Thanks to all that have pointed it out. Batley is on the 11th and 12th of August. I'll change it now.

Brian will be sorting out the online booking very soon.

Cheers,

G

[bretts]

Woo Hoo! Thanks Graham.

With these dates I can do 2wd & 4wd and still do at least 3 out of 5 in both.

Schumacher are going make some money out of me this year!!

[Northy]

We tried to make it possible to do enough rounds to count even if you could only make Sundays :)

G

[NeilD]

Really looking forward to it now.:)

[AndyM]

Really looking forward to it now.:)

me2 :D

[mark christopher]

[telboy]

Phew! am I glad that the dates are out....

all the bloody moaning and whingeing I've been doing recently I bet you lot are glad too?!

good to see that they're worked out in the way they are G, nice bit of planning there.

:p

[tc2k]

Looking forward to it. I know Im definately going to two, the other three are up in the air but question. Do you need to compete in 4 to get your license up?

[Fabs]

Yeah great idea having 2WD and 4WD on different days, it just means I can't make it as my lift would have done 2WD. Cheers guys.:wtf:

[chrispattinson]

Ok, we're good to go with the first 2WD regional of the season up here at Nissan.

Sunday 22nd April from 7.30 am - meals available - all the usual amenities at Nissan Sports and Social.

For more info see www.nercr.net - click info and then on map for directions. Hope to see you all there!

note: Track is to be open for practice at 7.30 (ok maybe 8am will do)

Booking in is open at the usual place - http://brca-northeast.net

[dave p hall]

[NeilD]

I've entered all 2 and 4WD it's gonna be great.

[rcracer]

entered all 2 & 4 wheel but york as we be on holiday :( , but the 2 weeks fishing holiday in cornwall will make up for it :D

[dave p hall]

cornish pasties:p yum yum:rolleyes:

[telboy]

Is the first round at nercr the same venue as the indoor meets? but outdoor?

sorry for sounding so simple.:eh?:

[tc2k]

Believe so. Theres a field outside the sports hall where the regional was held last year. Looking forward to it. Hopefully will have stonking hot weather like last year.

[Northy]

Its the same venue.

G

[Fabs]

I don't want to sound like I'm complaining all the time, but 3 rounds are clashing with the TC nationals so that means even if I get a 2WD buggy tomorrow I can still only do 2 meetings, that sucks. :eh?:

[NeilD]

Easy mate, ditch the TC. :D

[dave p hall]

wash your mouth out fabs:rolleyes: whos bothered,anyone:confused:

[Northy]

We have managed to not clash with the following:

NW Regionals
1/10th Off Road Nationals
1/8th Rallycross Nationals
Euros
Worlds

I think we've done quite well.

G

[NeilD]

Well done G, hows the cheese?

[Northy]

I've had some cheese with my tea. Would anyone believe just over a year ago I'd never eaten cheese before? :confused:

G

[Mrs oOple]

I wouldn't believe that, how can anyone not have eaten cheese until just over a year ago? It's been around since forever!

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cheese

Would anyone believe that a patient conned me into making her cheese on toast yesterday afternoon? 'They always make me cheese on toast', so no sooner had I finished cooking and her home care lady turned up to make her tea! pah.

[NeilD]

So for 27ish years you were cheese free and now your addicted to the stuff.

Cheese on toast is ace.

[rcracer]

bring it on:p entered all 4wd rounds, well done on the planning of rounds to those who organise it all for us:cool: much appriciated;) good to see 5 different venues:p hope to see you all there,good luck everyone:p hope we all have a good one;)


get yourself a 2 wheel drive as well dave and calm it on the smileys :D

[telboy]

G! Have you tried beans yet?

If you haven't, try......CHEESEY BEANS!!!:wtf:

YOU'LL DEFFO BE ADDICTED!

I don't care if they clash with the T.C's, i'd do this over on road any day! Even if I am crap at it!:D


Oh, and I was watching a program on telly the other day that showed you how certain cheeses was made........hmm, cows stomach lining mixed with......something or other (i can't remember, it was over an hour ago), they then mixed it up in a container the size of a car, left for a day or so and the two then congile (spelling) then they just scoop it up and call it cheese! LLLLOOOOOVVVVEEEELLLLYYYYY!:o

[Northy]

I like beans, they have a good effect on me.

Cheese is really only off milk I suppose. :rolleyes:

G

[dave p hall]

you know how excited i get when it comes to racing me toy lol;)
