Still no tyres arriving today, it's quite stressful at the moment. I think the best option for next year, if tiverton hosts a nat again is to move its national to the 2nd of the season, or further down so it gives people pleanty more time to source tyres.
I placed an order on my tyres the day i received my acception form, and i've still got none. Not good really!:( |

it'l be comedy if the studs are not the choice on the day however.. ahh. STILL though, i'm looking forward to it, nat weekends are normally fun no matter what happens!
who's camping/hotelling? |
I managed to get 1 pair of red losi studs from a shop in the UK. That was after emailing nearly all the shops in the back of Racer, and Race Car magazine.

i really don't understand the problem, i ordered 30 pairs in february for the people who buy early, i followed this up with another 30 after the national confirmations a couple of weeks ago, i have 5 pairs left and have ordered some more for sale on the day, i received the 2 x 30 pairs within 3 days of ordering. the remaining order may come in next week but horizon are not sure, i will be checking on tuesday for a delivery forecast, fortunately i am not too far from harlow so i can go and collect as late as thursday. perhaps i was lucky and just ordered at the right time, it does seem to be an annual problem for some drivers and the distributors seem to get the blame, i cannot fault horizon this year they have delivered exactly what i ordered and in good time.

i now have none left.
|
I really don't see this as a problem for next year ;-) unless a.n.other dirt track apples for a national. I just goes to show that not enough drivers plan ahead. 8-O

It's fine for us guys who are gauranteed an entry but I do feel for those guys who don't know they are in until the end of March, or even on the reserve list.

I fully agree. I mean I managed to get tyres ages ago, but for anyone who is F3,4 or 5, awaiting entry pack leaves little time to plan for this one.. I think this is why Paul Rotheram mentioned having Tivvy later in the season but then that also brings a new problem, cos Tivvy is indoor and away from any football pitches, so avoids problems from rain and from any football matches going on over the weekend. Football ends shortly ofcause. You ought to see Bury Metro on a Sunday at 11am, cars parked everywhere and you'll be lucky if you don't have to walk 200yds to get to the track. |

Id watch the visibility, it's only meant to be moderate which could make driving interesting :D :D :D

Scattered showers / 19C on Saturday Partly cloudly / 18C on Sunday. I'll take the temps. Bit more sun please? |
Won't the rain actually help? I know were under cover but the dampness in the ground will keep the dust down and perhaps stop it looking like a bomb site after the 3rd round.
I have some used tires from 2006, cleaned, still got square tops on the spikes and mounted on wheels. Anybody struggling to get theres in time can buy these off me, see my add in the for sales, also I am prepared to sell on my new tires after I have had a run or 2 on them too. Chris |
