Who would be interested in running these at COBRA and would we want a basic rule, i.e. motor?

Why start another fad when we aint even got a PROPER buggy track in wales that runs on a weekend!!(no offence to clubs but im referring to full size buggy tracks that can easily pull 50 drivers on a sunday)

Find me the 50 drivers who would attend regular, and we will look into it Dave....

Could be a very good idea Steve, taking into account the size of the new hall we're in they could be perfect.

We've done a fair bit for the buggy side of the club lately (with the new jumps and outside surface) and this may increase the turnout for the onroad side - I wouldn't trust me with a TC in Marshfield (too expensive to fix when I do break it!) but I'd give Mardave a go.

As for rules, what do other clubs that run them do? Aren't they retro style silver can motors?

There is official BRCA rules, but we don't like a strict format, I think the cars limit themselves mostly... additives, J, yeap you can matey!

47 cars on track at caldi on fri...Not all at same time;) plus a few did 2 classes. but still 47 paying.oh plus a fair few didnt turn up or were at the mk gp. Almost 60 at caldi wrca last year and as im informed by a tru racing legend that lots of top drivers would travel to a good track.
It really would be superb not to have to drive 3 and a half hours just to get a full day on a proper buggy track:thumbsup:

Sorry Steve, I know I've not raced at Cobra for years, but reading this thread makes my down stairs tingle :lol:

I LOVE Mardave mini stocks, I started a club for them in Pembrokeshire about 13 years ago. It went very well for about 6 months. We raced in a chirch hall on a carpet oval, FANTASTIC FUN, and cheap :thumbsup::thumbsup:

I think over the years (since 1988) I've managed to about 30 Mini Stocks to people just by showing them mine and starting the club.

I'm in 300% !!!!!!!!!!!:thumbsup: And Alisha will be to !!!!!!! :thumbsup:

Rob.

Our two cars are now running :)

Can't get to Cobra this Sunday, so see you with the Mardaves the week after.

Rob and Alisha.
