10th on the Dirt at Coventry?

[graveltrap]

Hi all, Coventry Model Car Club is looking at running a 10th 'Dirtmasters' on a shortened version of the 1/8th scale track. This is slated to occur at the beginning of next season, when the dirt track has been freshly prepared and the 8ths haven't had a chance to chew the surface up!!

I have run my B4 round the track and it's a lot of fun, if I can get round anyone else will be able to!!

I would like to know if anyone is interested in such a race meeting and what people would want from it?

Sounds good if a control tyre is used :thumbsup:

[jasonrcb]

Count me in for that :thumbsup:

[Bagman]

I'd join the club if you did. Calibers would be a good control tyre if you needed one.

[adam_u]

Sounds like a good laugh to me, I'd give it a go too :thumbsup:

[markwilliamson2001]

Get a roof put over it, then it would be all weather! :-). Seriously though, I would if I still did 10th buggy.

[GRIFF55]

Sounds great! Would it be a series or just a big one off event?

[graveltrap]

Right now it would be a one off event, the calendar gets very full over the summer so putting a series on would be tough.

I've bought and tried a few different tyres so we are getting an idea of what works, tyre wear also doesn't seem to be an issue :)

[budgio]

Yes !
Bring it on

[panch]

definatley :thumbsup:

[styleone]

Brilliant idea...We would be interested in coming down to that :thumbsup: 2wd, 4wd, SC??

[Bagman]

That's a good question, 2wd and 4wd for me.

[gainsy]

The track looks excellent :thumbsup:
Count me in

[Dave Dodd]

would like to try that, sounds good :thumbsup:

could you plan it for a dry day :lol:

[Belsten]

Sounds good to me :thumbsup:

[Big G]

Yup. Count me in

[Adam F]

Would definitely be up for that +3....

[graveltrap]

2wd, 4wd, SC??

Right now it would be just 2wd and 4wd, purely for a numbers reason. Trucks already get to play anyway ;)

could you plan it for a dry day :lol:

We'll do our very best ;)

[neiloliver]

Yep. :thumbsup:

[GRIFF55]

How about tyres that have been nominated from previous euros? I'm sure people who have been before would be willing to part with/ sell them?
Count me in for a one off event FO SHO!:thumbsup:

[1rcdad]

yep sounds good ,looking forward to it.

[telboy]

That sounds like an excellent idea!
Get CML to sponsor it and provide control tyres as part of the entry fee. That way it saves us having to hunt around for tyres. :)

Awesome idea. Why should the nitro boys have all the fun?:thumbsup:

[taz5311]

Excellent track and facilities, so will definately be there

[The Chef]

I'm in:)

[Chris-S]

I'm in.

[graveltrap]

Thanks for the replies guys!! Good to see a positive response all in all, we will carry on with the planning and such like :)

[Disco-Panda]

Ohh baby i spoke to Mark on sunday about this as an idea id so be there every oppurtunity i have!!!!!

[James]

Now that..... Is a great idea Griff!! Ive got new and barely used calibers M4 and M3, best price boss....:D

[russmini]

Definitely be up for it.

[RogerM]

Definitely so long as there was a single control tire (including compound and insert) for all those who have no experience with dirt tires.

[Ritchie T]

I did consider having a bit of a play on there after a club meet on the astro but it looked a little rough. If it gets tarted up a bit then definatly :)

[reg]

i took my durango round last year,it is an awsome track,it hadent been dressed like they are doing so it should be even better:thumbsup:

[Ritchie T]

I got some cheap hole shots and ribs, hope this is still on :)

[Shaun 'TheSheep' Atkinson]

I had a run on the dirt track with my 10th a few week ago, brilliant fun!! :)

Just a bit dusty lol
