All day meeting - 25th September 2011 - 6th Round of 2011 Summer Series - FINAL ROUND

[mikeyscott]

So who is in for another great days racing, hopefully some more people coming in from far and wide.

Been a pretty good series so far!

[Dudders]

Is this the ansmann date at Eden?

[mikeyscott]

Is this the ansmann date at Eden?

No idea, our dates have been out since before "dry" season etc.

[brookie]

Yes it is! :thumbdown:

http://www.edenparkraceway.com/news.htm

As you can see we, and Ansmann, we're hoping to attract drivers of all ages and abilities from across the UK (but obviously primarily in the South!) to this FREE event that will offer drivers an unparalleled opportunity to get direct access to the team, it's drivers and it's equipment.

EPR Committee

[Dudders]

Is it worth moving the date to attract more to TORCH as some might go to Eden Park?.

I know Adam, Craigo and Deano might be going to it... also it's free which will also attract a fair few irregulars from travelling to TORCH? :confused:

I know the TORCH date was set first but maybe its the right thing to do?. We'll be at TORCH but would also do Eden if on another date.

I doubt it as comittee members have also organised things around the other weekends. (Racing elsewhere, holidays, family events and so forth).

[Dudders]

I know what you mean!!! :lol:

See you on the 25th then, unless we see you this Sunday coming @ SHRCCC :thumbsup:

[maseace]

It's a shame as not missed on yet but I will be going to eden park to give it a try

[MrMagoo]

Gutted to miss it, but it's the last summer series round at Clanfield. Sitting 3rd in the truggy champs means I'm going to have to go nitro... Too much racing and just not enough time!

[mikeyscott]

Essentially we can't win.

[MrMagoo]

Essentially we can't win
Don't think so Mike, TBH you'll never avoid clashing with someone. According to my RC calendar my choices on 25th are:


TORCH all-dayer
Ansmann race at Eden
Clanfield Summer Series at...
BRCA Truggy Nationals at Coventry
BRCA Rally X reserve date


September is just plain crazy for racing. I figure with the rep TORCH has now you'll get a big enough turn out what ever happens.

[dibble34]

I hope to be there :thumbsup:

[mikeyscott]

I hope to be there :thumbsup:

Cheers Dave.

[dibble34]

Gotta defend my 5th place from that Cammers :p

Add RC Arena Winter Series to the date too. Can we fly between races like the Horse Jockey's do?? LMAO. TORCH for us x 3 :thumbsup:

[mikeyscott]

It is what it is, we try our best.

[hotrodchris]

Mikey when we at Clanfield set next summers dates will talk with you as a lot of us have a hard decision regarding the 25th, commitment as a committee member at Clanfield or fun at Torch

[Cammers]

I'll be there and I hope dibble is aswell, dont want him to have any excuse for me taking his 5th spot in the championship.:p

[jpmatrix]

Hopefully i will be there if I can swap shifts with one of the drivers at work.

Might have a dabble with 4wd i think with the newly purchased DEX410R. Just waiting for a couple of upgrades to come through the post.

[Briangb]

Count me in too. Most probably be my next race meeting as away on holiday soon.
25th is first weekend after I return. What chance an Indian summer?
My car is ready to go, although may service shocks and diffs before I garage it and
convert to 2wd for the winter.
Looking forward to it.

[Crazy L]

I'll be there. Wild horses wont keep me away.

Dunno if cake will be though, had to force it down your necks last time, so probably the end of that :lol:

Should be a good one, lets 'ave it.

[ASKay]

If i am in the country, I will be there also...... need to try and get my astro setup improved before this tho...:thumbsup:

[mikeyscott]

I didn't change my setup for grass much, ride height and tyres! TRF511 for me this meeting I think!

Mikey when we at Clanfield set next summers dates will talk with you as a lot of us have a hard decision regarding the 25th, commitment as a committee member at Clanfield or fun at Torch

Totally understand and feel for you.

[The Chef]

Can't wait for this as it is always a top days racing. Lets hope that the weather holds:)

[Deano577]

I'm in it's been a good series it it's a shame it's over are you doing a winter series?

[SteveB]

I'm in it's been a good series it it's a shame it's over are you doing a winter series?

Tbc, but what do u think?

[Deano577]

Tbc, but what do u think?

I would say do it bit Its the weather I don't mind the cold it's just the rain
shame couldn't get a big marque and put it over the track!!!

[hotrodchris]

as a 1/8th racer and the way the last 2 Winter's have affected that a 1/10th astro Winter Series would be spot on and even though have had numerous car issues during the Summer Series have thoroughly enjoyed both the banter and some exceptional racing,
a lot of 1/8th driver's have 1/10th car's nowadays as can be seen with the increase in 1/10th tracks both indoors and out recently 3 in the south alone:thumbsup:

[MrMagoo]

Will be at TORCH anyway over the winter, but as Chris says a few all-dayers would definitely spice things up - especially when there's no 1:1 racing to get home and watch on the telly!

[The Chef]

+1

How often does the track get changed at torch? A few extra features would be fantastic.:thumbsup:

[Dudders]

I'm coming, Adam has a Hockey match so wont be there, I could bring Harry but depends on weather you'll be having a Jnr race?

Let me know?

[hotrodchris]

Clanfield cancelled on the 25th so ill be there

[The Chef]

Looks like it will a big day:woot:

[RobW]

I'm coming, Adam has a Hockey match so wont be there, I could bring Harry but depends on weather you'll be having a Jnr race?

Hi Neil

We want to run a junior race but realistically need a min of 3.

Can anyone who might be bringing a junior who would want to run in a junior heat let us know please so we can let people know if it is going ahead.

Thanks

Rob

[DragonRider]

I will be bringing my 10 year old with me.

He will be running in the 4WD's if we can get booked in as neither of us have not raced at any of the previous rounds.

Cheers

Mark

[hotrodchris]

Rob bringing the 9 year old with us again this time hes got a car?

[mikeyscott]

Clanfield cancelled on the 25th so ill be there

Cancelled :confused:

Will be good to have you guys at TORCH :thumbsup:

So 2WD or 4WD mmmm

Looking forward to it, then I'll need a break for a week before the edurance event

[Swiss]

Any questions drop an email to info@torchracing.org.uk. My PM box is perm full :(

Re details also again email the above address and I'll get it all set-up on the laptop.

We try to do 3 leg finals for all, but that really is dependant on numbers.

[Randall34]

if numbers are large (60+) do you think 3 qualifying rounds would be good, in order to keep the 3 leg finals.

[Crazy L]

Good Idea Neil:thumbsup:, I think anyway. I know everyone loves a full days racing but larger numbers mean getting home later.

Hoping the weather holds out.

If any of you want cake, I suggest you start lobbying either my Facebook:lol:, or Leis, if you're on it.

[spenner]

What time do we start?
What time is first heat on the line?
I hear Tony E is very quick round there?
Only Schumachers tyres?
See you Sunday

[RobW]

Hi

Track open for open practice 8.00
Booking in closes 8.45
Heat list up 9.00 - please check your PT numbers
Drivers briefing 9.15
First Heat 9.30

Indications are that driver numbers for this event are likely to be higher than some previous rounds so we are going to have to run a slightly tighter timetable than normal. Drivers will need to be on the line on time for their races.

We'll assess number of qualifying rounds and finals once we know total driver numbers - obviously we'll go for as many as practical but take into account some drivers will have a couple of hours to drive home afterwards.

Another reminder for everyone please, if you have not raced at TORCH previously or you have changed details (class, PT, freqs) can you please sent them on to Mike - it will save time in the morning and let us get racing earlier.

Weather looking better so here's looking forward to a good day's racing.

Cheers

Rob

[RobW]

Sorry, forgot - yes it is schumacher tyres only

[Deano577]

Mike I'm on 2.4 now thanks

[mikeyscott]

Mike I'm on 2.4 now thanks

Ok, will make the change. Thought you were up at EPR?

[dobber]

I'll be coming along for my first time at TORCH. What do you need to know prior to Sunday?

Also who else from SHRCCC is going, hoping to see a few familiar faces rather than being Billy no mates ;)

[mikeyscott]

If you can send the following to info@torchracing.org.uk

Name
BRCA no
PT
Class
Ability
Freq

TORCH is very welcoming and a lot of good guys there, so you'll be fine :)

[DragonRider]

Unfortunatley my son and myself will not be there this Sunday as he came off his bike coming home from school and his hand went straight through the front wheel into the disc and mangled his fingers up.

Sorry for not being able to be there but he is going into surgery tomorrow.

Should be there for round 1 of the winter series.

Sorry again.

For cake Mr Evdoka, read home made muffins, and not yer average ones either.:thumbsup::thumbsup:

See you all there.

[Dudders]

Mrs Dudders has just left to hurtle up the A1 to Lincoln to see her dieing gran, lets hope she's back in time! :confused:

Hollywood is coming if he gets it put back together in time. I am sure he will and if I have not mentioned it before I think he would be there for the cake also :)

[jamiekerr14]

I shall be there with the Tango looking forward to it..

[mikeyscott]

Cool.

4WD starting to look good too :)

[Crazy L]

Cake might appear, I'm assuming though from the lack of interest from Mikey that he wont be wanting any, more for Grant and Chris.

and me of course :thumbsup:

[rob8246]

I'm ready to dominate everything! ;)

Yet another great day at TORCH (the weather didn't hurt...). sorry I had to shoot off before the presentation, family issues:(

Gotta hand it to the committee, 70-some drivers and we got four rounds plus three leg finals and still finished at a reasonable time. Ace work guys, good balance of laid back atmosphere but keeping things moving.

Here's for more fun over the winter:thumbsup:

[jpmatrix]

Really enjoyed racing through the summer (was there a summer?) at Torch.

The summer series was fantastic and a credit to all who organised it.

Thanks to Martin who soldered a new motor into the durango. Unfortunetly, My hpi flux 5.5t motor decided to destroy itself so only managed to finish 1 qualifying round. Other than that, the 410r was quick and when working a really great car to drive.

Looking forward to the charity race and the winter series.

[mikeyscott]

James, did you trace the prob?

[jpmatrix]

James, did you trace the prob?

Not really Mike. Drivetrain seemed free enough and the gearing was ok. I used a 21t pinion and dropped to 19t. Timing advance was also set to 0. Holes were cut out on both sides of the shell. Steve had a good look at it and he couldnt spot anything obvious.

Going to order a different bodyshell and double check everything and go from there.

[AmiSMB]

Fantastic days racing and congratulations to the club for running a slick meeting with 4 rounds and 3 leg finals for all. Finish time was about right. Thanks to all those who came a long way as I think there was a lot of great competition.

[hazeandfizz]

Thank you guys for a cracking meeting, you run a brilliant club.

Fingers crossed for a regional meeting next year.

Cheers,
James and Jim Barker!

[SteveB]

Hi all

Thanks to a great attendance yesterday which everyone was well chilled out, like to say thanks and well done to Torch committee :thumbsup:

Also big thanks to Rob Racey for the use of his sound system and his usual commentary which was flawless :thumbsup:

Also thanks to Neil Dudders and Tony Evodoka for some support with commentary :thumbsup:

Hope to see you all back for our winter series.

Thanks Steve

[freddie]

i will be coming down for winter series :thumbsup:

[Dudders]

New track layout for the Winter?

[ASKay]

Brilliant day..... Absolutely brilliant.... fantastic...

[Deano577]

Any one got photos of the day

[The Chef]

Oh new track for winter? I'm there.

[martin so16]

i am planing on a new track lay out for the winter we got some new jumps to put in as well :thumbsup:

[freddie]

cant wait to see new layout and new jumps !!:thumbsup:

[ASKay]

Any one got photos of the day

took the camera but it stayed in the car... just not enough time in the morning, and in the afternoon the lighting was a bit dull/flat...

[The Chef]

New track will be fabulous. Some real technical bits would be tops but can we keep the long straight. PPPPPlease:p

I'm sure it will be tops no matter what. Can't wait. New obstacles too:thumbsup:

[simoncrabb]

Hey Martin, can we start a thread for track design discussion? Can you post a diagram of the new layout for racers input?

[Briangb]

Have to say I pretty much agree with everyones comments. This year (think I started in April) has been my first experience of 1/10th Electric, having been playing with 1/8th nitro for a couple of years. My skill level has progressed, but extremely slowly as I am usually restricted to 1 race per month. I want to get to a level where I can actually race, and not just driving around trying to better my previous lap time. However, 1/10 has been my saviour, along with a long list of people too big to mention individually, who have supported me with their help, enthusiasm and experience. Most of you will know who you are. But in case you don't; Byrners, Chris Slevin, Hollywood, RCLazy x2, all of the Clanfield Massive for your banter and friendship, and apologies to any I have left out. Sorry Dudders, I should include you especially for your thoughtfullness in providing rain protection.

The atmosphere at TORCH has been incedible. I have thoroughly enjoyed the Summer Series and cannot wait for the Winter Series to start. To all the crew at TORCH, keep up the work. It is very much appreciated.
2wd for me over the winter. What have I let myself in for. Bring it on.
