Jimmy,
Shame you went to watch sheep racing rather than come along to Falkirk
We are not getting nearly enough numbers. Its a shame but to be honest the competition is still there so you will have people to race and wont be bored. There is plenty of banter and it makes for a really enjoyable day.
I had an 18 year break before doing this years SORC and got back into it no problem. I dont think I took the motor out of the car all season, and only changed gearing once. Its such low maintenance on the electrics side that its now just purely about set up and driver comittment.
Anyone can go ballistic for 5 minutes, no dumping with lipo, so its still about who crashes less wins.
2wd was getting more numbers at a couple of rounds than 4wd.
120 drivers would be a pipe dream going by current levels, however the rounds were well run and commentated/refereed on by John Allan and the clubs so it can only serve to create a bit of mass going forward.
Go on, give it a go again, what about Gordon and Iain too?? Derek Kerr had it too easy in the Veterans class
Cheers.
David
