Andy, are you racing this Friday?

If so, do you think you could try and incorporate that "hump back bridge" thingy into your design? It was a brilliant idea :)

Or failing that, I second Axeman's request to run the same track again this week :)

I am there, and not sure wether to run the same track again or not?!?!?!

Don't want to spoil a good thing, but then it was ace!!! :confused:

Either way I can def put the rolling lumpy thing in again though...assuming I get there early enough to help build the track...not sure who's getting there first this week yet.

Dave, I'll take some activator and acetone too buddy :thumbsup:

That roller thing was such a clever idea, ive been raving to Bill about what he missed :D

Dont have to have the roller where it was, we could move it about if you want to change the track, but I found that roller such a key part of last weeks track!! Needs to be just before a corner though so people dont just laugh off it and miss the whole point of what it does :)

The jump in front of the rostrum was good too. More of a "long jump" than a "high jump".

I dont think we've ever had numerous requests to run a track the week after have we? You oughta be proud Andy!!

I did go upto Andy last week with a track design but thankfully he went with his idea :D

I have a hospital appointment Thursday which means I have to work Friday (I normally have Friday's off) so I might not be able to make it at a track building time this week.

I helped you with your track idea afew weeks ago though Pete and that went down well :)

I think what Andy's trying to say is that if it's a Friday then there will be car club!

And Cris, it wasn't a bad track was it? just not as good as last weeks!

It's dead easy to find now Liam as there are some roadworks to act as a reference point!
Come along the A48 from the Coldra, through Langstone (mind the speed camera!) and stay on there until you reach the roadworks with the temporary lights.
As soon as you've gone through the roadworks (opposite pub) turn left then 2nd right and you can't miss the hall.

look forward to seeing you!:thumbsup:

It's the Northgate Inn, the turning isn't quite opposite, but it's the first left (Dinham Road) after you have passed the pub.

is it by, or opposite the MOD base??? I was going to pop along Friday and have a look, my BLitz isnt ready to race yet but was just wondering if its okay to spectate 2mrw, just to get a feel for it all again ;-)

Yes it is near the MOD base, your more than welcome to hook up with Liam and me if you are coming from that direction. Oh and spectating is free :thumbsup:

Brilliant track Andy! Seriously I really have enjoyed your tracks of late and last nights was madness!

Such an agressive track that seriously punished those who were not racing at 100% concentration. Seing Bills broken 4mm rear carbon tower on his S2 was testiment to how fast the entry into that drift sweeper really was!

I dont know if it was just me, but my car felt uncontrollably fast last night. I dont know if its in my head, or if the cells are starting to show their true potential but my car was just FAST!

Really enjoyed racing against Craig too with his S2 :)
