[ben]

Never raced at tiverton before so cant comment. I just know it's a very long way lol

[coolcars782]

[chris68nufc]

If its a long way for you, its even longer for me! Still cant wait for next years Nationals though:thumbsup:

[coolcars782]

It was 10mins for me :wub

[David Church]

It will all be decided very soon:thumbsup:

[ben]

The two i dont want to go to is tally and coventry. The tracks just arent to the standard of some others imo!

[GRIFF55]

But coventry has proven itself at eos finals twice and tally is another uk region whos track will improve with every comment heard.
Silverstone has had an eos final too!

Harper adams baby, all the way for indoor dirt in the uk!!!

EOS finals on silverstones new track? I didnt mention coventry proving itself :yawn:
Isnt harper adams real expensive to rent the hall?

[PaulRotheram]

Definatly bring tiverton back! i'd not have to think twice about a return to the nationals then! Absolutely loved that track :)

[GRIFF55]

Dont think so, wasn't having a pop and i guess it is. You said discuss!;):thumbsup:
tiverton was an awesome venue! Espcially good for me as the winter meets were great

[DCM]

Used to love the winter series there.... Tivvy

[coolcars782]

Now we gotta have our winter series outside, in the cold, wet and wind.

[Danny McGee]

Used to love the winter series there.... Tivvy

Do you not remember just how cold that hall used to get???????????????? Crazy fools.

I quite like ben's list actually. A fair spread. Just a shame harper couldnt do a track for us tenth boys, they make such a good effort with the 8th meetings they do.

[David Church]

Whats happened to the Talywain track? Have they built the new track yet? Any pics around if they have?

[hywel]

Weare working on things as we speak no pictures at present
As to Mr jamesoms comment regardind it Not being up to standard ,who made him chairman of the section ? [lol]:p

[Richard Lowe]

It'd be ace to goto Harper Adams if a Neo standard track could be built for our little cars :)

I'd like us to goto the same tracks Ben suggested this year, with the exception of Stotfold - me and that track don't get on :thumbdown:

[PTRU]

You can always come down to Proline Dirt Arena,

Not cold (Danny)
one type of tyre Proline hole shot. (do not have to carry 3 diff types)
Hot food and drinks,
Clay surface that holds up.

Most people go home having enjoyed the day.

next race 6th Dec

[Lee Martin]

harper is wayyyyyyyyyyyyy to £££££ to hold a national meeting.

[millzy]

Stotfold

EOS finals...

Silverstone and broxtowe

Yeah that’s dose look like a good list, Personally id put Taly in – but I wouldn’t know what track to vote off as I do like them all but have to stay true to my Welsh Club.


Southport would be the only one for me I wouldn’t attend just because it’s so far. But I do like the track and the night life and the club do an amazing job as do all who put on national events.

Who ever do get the votes im sure will put in 110% in to every thing

As we all know from the past what ever gets posted from us drivers will upset one club or another , but as we are the drivers who have to race on the tracks clubs have to accept that some people may not like a track for what ever reason.

[ashleyb4]

I like that list to but ide get rid of stotfold and put tally in Really enoyed tally last year second best result of the year. in both classes.

A

[Smartalec]

Southport
Eden Park
Oswestry
Kidderminster
Coventry
Robin Hood Raceway

EOS: Silverstone (last chance) and Broxtowe

............or bring back Chesham (grass), Aylesbury (grass), Toddington (grass), in fact ANY grass track LOL
:thumbsup::thumbsup::thumbsup:

[Smartalec]

Is anyone from Silverstone attending the selection meeting?

[Reevsey]

We just need 6 meetings at Stotfold :p i could have my best year yet then :thumbsup:

[Northy]

You can only have events at the clubs that apply :p

G

[stuartw]

Is anyone from Silverstone attending the selection meeting?

If they did attend to present their case, they would not be allowed to participate in the selection process. Only Committee members are allowed to vote.

[Reevsey]

My real choice would be

(rather than 6 rounds at Stotfold the best track in the Uk :p)

Southport - Round 2
Oswestry - Round 3
Robin Hood Raceway - Round 1
Stotfold - Round 4
Coventry - Round 6
Eden Park Raceway - Round 5
Talywain - Not for me i am afraid
Kidderminster - Not sure the club have the numbers to run a meeting with out help on the day from racers
Broxtowe - EOS
Silverstone - EOS

Whats your reasons for wanting taly. It being your home track doesnt count lol :p

[millzy]

You know what ,every one says that but its not my home track 3 other welsh regional tracks are just as close to where I live and I attend 2 of them more than I do Taly

But as I am track designer/ Builder then yeah that’s why I’d like the best of the best in the UK to come down and race on it.

like i said i wouldnt know what track id take out as they are all good in my book

[ben]

Rightey, with ya millz :thumbsup:
Is the new track in the same place??

[Smartalec]

If they did attend to present their case, they would not be allowed to participate in the selection process. Only Committee members are allowed to vote.
Fair enough :thumbsup:

[timmy121]

i'd choose

southport
oswestry
rhr
stotfold
kidderminster
coventry

[PTRU]

In answer to your question 5900 sq ft.


Straight is 20m long.

we run 8 car finals.

Yes it would be nice to be a lot larger, (working on that at present).

But it is indoor clay warm with a lot of facilitys.

[MALLET]

Sort them doubles out on the back straight before the hill then if you haven't done so.:lol::p

God they was hard to sort out in the 809 series we went to there :(

Blimey, 5900sq ft is not that much smaller than blyth, i had no idea it was that size, i may come down sometime..

[RogerM]

Nationals

Stotfold
Kidderminster
Talywain
Oswestry
Robin Hood Raceway
Eden Park Raceway

In that event order I think for reasons of weather acceptability rather than anything else.

EOS

Coventry
Broxtowe

[bigred5765]

don't forget James when talking about warehouse size its not just floor space measured,its width buy depth buy height,
question for Mr true man? what's the floor size in feet, doesn't need to be exact,we haven't been there yet so may be worth a trip down,and whats motors are people running please,turn wise?6.5?7.5?

and back on track ben pick of nats sounds perfect to me.

[Richard Lowe]

don't forget James when talking about warehouse size its not just floor space measured,its width buy depth buy height,
You're thinking of volume there Carl :drool:

20m straight = 65', is there a minimum length for a national?

I might have a wander down one day, indoor dirt = dialled :thumbsup:

[bigred5765]

sounds good doesnt it, just never seem to get the timing right, are they run sundays

yes rich thats it volume,durrrr

[Danny McGee]

We just need 6 meetings at Stotfold :p i could have my best year yet then :thumbsup:

agreed :D

[PTRU]

AS said before we could run an indoor national meeting it is to the rules.

last time I measured the track it was 100m long ish 2.5m wide.

the only people who think it is too small are the people who have not been there.

[coolcars782]

I think PDA would be a great track for the nationals, it would be the only whole dirt track and offer a conmpletely different type of race.

[burgie]

[QUOTE=PTRU;315109]AS said before we could run an indoor national meeting it is to the rules.

QUOTE]

I thought the minimum width of the track for a National event was 3m?

[PaulUpton]

I think some of the dates/venues have been decided :thumbsup:

[burgie]

given that the committee meeting to decide the national venues for 2010 was held last night, I think you might be correct. :bored:

[PaulUpton]

And that I've had a email with some of the dates on it =)

[millzy]

Rightey, with ya millz :thumbsup:
Is the new track in the same place??

yes, new lanes going in so the bumpy straight will be part of the infield and the big back jump tech will be to far to use for 10th. but fine for 8th

[David Church]

I know all:p I was at the meeting:thumbsup:

[ashleyb4]

OMG i hope we get a national. Putting on a national is one of the best things ive ever been part of.

A

[David Church]

Ashley is over excited with anticipation!!!:thumbsup:

[David Church]

I can tell you one of the track that did NOT get a National is.......................


















Tiverton indoors!!! hahahaha

[Jonesy]

It's always good having inside knowledge...... :thumbsup:

[PTRU]

Quote = I thought the minimum width of the track for a National event was 3m?
outdoor track has to be 3m wide.

Indoor 2.5m wide. unless the rules have changed since 2009 rule book.

[Jonesy]

It's always good having inside knowledge...... :thumbsup:


People stop sending PM's, I was only joking!!! :lol:

I'm eager to know as much as everyone!

[millzy]

I got told Jones you selected all 6 tracks and Oj picked the E.O.S F3/4

[IceMike]

come on jonesy who did u pick for this year then :P seen as u had the fianl choice :p

[Jonesy]

come on jonesy who did u pick for this year then :P seen as u had the fianl choice :p

Oswetsry all 6 rounds of course, I like flat grass!! :thumbsup:

[Kopite]

Oswetsry all 6 rounds of course, I like flat grass!! :thumbsup:

and cock!

Fair do's though, i'll take 6 Osfest rounds, get in

[ashleyb4]

! at oz is enough for me i think i would die if i had to organise 6 nationals.

[Jonesy]

Well it's a good job there is more than just you around to 'organise' then Ash isn't it..........

Let's hope we get the 1 first

[Jonesy]

and cock!

Fair do's though, i'll take 6 Osfest rounds, get in


Did you want your package?? You may have to give me favours

[DaSloth]

what would happen with regards to tyres if somewhere like PDA or tiverton got a national? Presumably the rules regarding tyres would have to be changed or is there something in the rules for that already? :o

I guess mini spikes don't go so well on dirt :p

[coolcars782]

Well at tivvy i would advise using mini spikes as our track is only grass and astro LOL

[jhammond]

DELETED

[DaSloth]

ok, so if it was harper adams or PDA then :p you get the idea...

[coolcars782]

We did have, its coming up 3 years in the spring since we lost it :( but the grass one does the job :D

[ashleyb4]

The rule isnt we use sch mini spikes and BB spikes everywhere. The tyres are suggested by the venue. Its just all the venue's we raced at last year the best all round tyres where the same. So say PDA etc would say something like Proline Bow ties work best or something. But it would also be very unlikely that any of the dirt track's got national because the venue's have to apply for a national and none of the dirt tracks have applied see northy's list.

A

[Col]

Does a national have to be outdoors?

[IceMike]

From past years and thing i would say there is no rule saying it has to be outside, there is no rule saying it has to be on grass or astro or the surface at all really, would be rather kewl if someone won the lottery and created the most random of national tracks ever with some far fetched material

[David Church]

What? Like horse poo??? Been done!!!!:p

[IceMike]

haha yer i remeber that track, didnt really like it. but nah i was think more like glass, make it like rainbow road on mario cart :P

[Spencer Mulcahy]

I like all the TRACKS listed but the camping at Kiddy and Stotfold is a nightmare not enough room. I hope Eden Park is on this year I love that track bit of a treck but well worth it,:thumbsup:

[Lee]

My choices would be

Round 1 RHR
Round 2 Eden park
Round 3 Southport
Round 4 Oz
Round 5 Stotfold
Round 6 Kiddy

EOS - Not fussed

[rc boy]

My choice would be :

round 1: kiddy
round 2: RHR
round 3: Southport
round 4: stotfold
round 5: oswestry
round 6: eden park
