Just checked the website and seen that this is a 4wd meeting, but I would be quite keen to do both classes if possible.

Not spoken to Tom yet, but thought I would start a thread gauging how much interest there would be a an extra 2wd heat. Mainly because I havent ran the Cougar on grass and this seems like the best opportunity before Oswestry. I know that Hinkley do have a 2wd Regional just before Os but with work commitments I doubt I will be there. If i can get to the 2wd one aswell, would be more than happy to do 4wd there too.

Whats everyones thoughts?

I can see no reason why we cant do that aslong as Tom is ok with it in relation to time on the day/entries etc.

We do run club meetings every Saturday 12-6 on the grass track starting tomorrow :thumbsup: where you can run whatever you like.

Good practice/testing for the regional and Oswestry national.

I'd quite like a quick run in 2wd too, first time outdoors in that class in 16 years at RHR the next week so a practice seems a good idea!!

you can run with the 4wd's and tip the scales at 1588g :D

2wd is the predominant class at our club meetings so I'm sure they would be happy to have a separate 2wd heat.

It is largely dependent on numbers... I have no problem with 1 single "guest" heat, but this will include trucks also.

If you want to run 2wd at Hinckley, please use a 4wd online form but write (2wd) next to your name. It will have to be first come first served I'm afraid though guys.

That's a good point Spidy, I've entered 2wd but can't remember if I was already in 4wd, is there a list anywhere or will it be on the original email?:confused:

Gibson: You have entered for 4wd and 2wd at Hinckley

Belsten: You have not entered for this round at all but have entered all the other 4wd rounds.

There are just 2 places left in the guest heat for Hinckley. We have 4 2wds and 4 trucks in it as yet.

EDIT: Now just 1 place left in the guest heat for Hinckley.

West Midlands 4WD buggy regional on 2nd May 2010.

We will be holding our normal club meeting on the day before (Saturday 1st May) and all are welcome to attend. We will also be offering the facility of CAMPING OVER the night before the regional (1st May Saturday night) at a cost of £5 per pitch. If you wish to reserve this please email me on dale.knight@btconnect.com.

The track will be re-modelled Saturday evening into the Regional track.

Hot food will be available both days as well as hot/cold drinks.

We are expecting a high turn and remember the doors do not open before 7.30am on the Sunday so please do not come before that as no Queing is allowed outside the entrance of the school due to residents complaining!

It's only a bit of rain...

although if there's limited access to the field for tents (like last year), it could make things interesting.

Griff, what time's PDA starting?? just in case we do get called off.
