Yes it is off road.
Mainly carpet with jumps and pt's are ok.
Numbers vary, good turn out last time.

Get there between 7 to 7.30 for booking in.
Start racing about 7.45 to 8.00.
3 rounds and a final i think.
Finish about 10.15ish.

Your SC looked good Lee, and was nice to see a car with orange on the shell rather than the normal red, blue, white approach

Oh, and thanks to whomever it was that parked their 1/10th on the main straight in practise (cos literally parking your car on the main straight is a top notch idea!!) and didnt bother to tell the rest of the 10 or so drivers that were also on the track at the time.
My new "experimental" 2 piece plastic LRP Shark chassis (busted chassis are a bitch) means I have to drive 50 miles to Newport to get a chassis for tomorrows Micro Nationals.

Thanks.

I saw quite a few people on the straight. Luckily I didn't hit anything. 1 was a car that had gone over the track into the middle of the straight and the other was a marshall. I know they can't be helped, maybe keep the straight along the back.

I'm sure a 5.5 powered B44 at full chat would of hurt quite a bit had I hit anyone

I liked the rumble thingys by the way, they are really good with a micro. Too fast and you can clear maybe 2 of them but the 3rd will kick you up too much, too slow and you'll just get whooped into that corner
