Filled out the booking form last night, paid my entry fee. Put date on calendar this morning and relised it was Fathers day. Asked my 6yr old daughter (tomorrow 14th) would she like to come racing for the weekend and camp over night. Once she had finished running around the living room, shouting "I'm going camping with daddy", my little poppet then replied " am I going to see you break your car again daddy:blush:, like you breaked your wishbone which made me laugh so much". Now where are those presents I have just brought her and I hope I still have the receipts:lol::lol:.

looking forward to this event and getting back to old skool racing. Best make sure I have enough wishbones for the car and Gaffa tape for her.

[mattybucks]

Fathers day!! Wow I'm going to be in trouble. Oh well I'm sure it'll be a good days racing.

[mattybucks]

Just to clarify should there be enough 2wd & 4wd short course trucks we will run separate classes.

[Gonky]

Fathers day!! Wow I'm going to be in trouble. Oh well I'm sure it'll be a good days racing.

Hi Guys,

I've had a number of requests to either pay by cash or cheque for the event. By all means you can pay for your entry at any of the Telstar events, or by cheque via post. If you want to do either of the above just let me know.

Saturday night entertainment:

We are making enquires regarding having a bar on site, as well as a pig roast and music. We are also looking to host some fun games, so we all have a bit of a laugh on the Saturday night.

If this is off interest then let me know.

The One too many Race
High Jump
Run what you brung

If you want to enter any of the above just respond to this thread, or you have any other ideas let us know.

Please can you confirm what day the short course is being run?

Thanks

[Scotty]

Saturday
Staduim Trucks and 2WD

Sunday
Short Course and 4WD

[Gonky]

I believe the short course was moved to the Saturday so it doesn't clash with the short course national that is taking place on the Sunday.

[mattybucks]

Saturday - 2wd/Short Course
Sunday - 4wd/Staduim Trucks - although we don't have any trucks booked in yet so we may run another 2wd class/Short Course if there's enough interest.

Booking in has closed on the website so anyone wanting to pay for entry - £15 per class can make payment to sales@telstar-racing.co.uk

Just a quick question regarding the weather and the event. Forecast is looking pretty grim for Saturday unfortunately and don't really fancy running the risk of water damaging any electrics. If I decide not to make the journey down to you guys based on the weather and cancel either the night before or first thing in the morning, would it be possible to change my entry for the Sunday instead and run 4 wheel? Or would I just be removed from the entry list and loose my entry fee as I've prepaid?

I really don't mind a few rain showers here and there, but persistent heavy rain all day isn't fun :thumbdown:.

I have everything crossed however that the forecasters are wrong as I've been looking forward to this event for months!

Alex

[PaulUpton]

Weather reports are showing light to moderate showers tomorrow so fingers crossed should be ok

[TARTMAN]

Can i ask, how many(if anyone knows) are going today(FRI) and camping tonight?

I am tying to decide if i go tonight after wok or tomorrow morning, hmmmmm...

dont want be be the only tent there lol....:(

[mattybucks]

Hi guys, unfortunately due to severe weather overnight the track and field is far to wet to hold a meeting on. We are looking at the calendar and re-scheduling the meeting for a day in July. We apologise for the late notice, but feel that this issue correct decision. Regards Matt
