So how many people are going to come to this? Would be nice to see some more people booking in through the website.

DaveG28 no worries about you turning up at ten. We will be having an open practice for a while to let people turn up and have a go around the track. Pre-booking is advised so that we know that you are coming.

PaulUpton this is the first year we have done it so no pictures of a full layout, don't think i have got any of the ramps as i am usually racing in off-road on a club night. Entry list, I will sort it out.

Right due to popular request, competitors list has been added to the site.

http://rj.wbmcc.com/index.php?option...d=70&Itemid=70

Lets get a load more entries in and fill it up a bit more guys.

DaveG28: It does say that on the website but this will probably be changed on the day at drivers briefing. Not sure 3 rounds of round by round qualifying would work. Watch this space.

Default Important notice about opening times

Just to let you know the opening time for saturday will now be 9:30am and not 9:00am as stated on the website. I will e-mail everybody who has booked in for this event but if you are turning up on the day then you can now leave half an hour later.

What tyres do people use in 2wd at west bridgeford?

I'm guessing it would be minipin rear but what about the front?

Minipins all round work well, but they do seem to wear down quite quickly. Staggered ribs work well to but don't offer as much steering as the minipins. Minispikes destroy themselves quite quickly so I wouldn't suggest them as a good front choice. Personal preference really, if you like quick steering then pins on the front, if you want your car to be more stable then staggered ribs all the way.

Results are up after round one and can be found here:-

The second round of the series will be my first off road race in a long time, and first time out with my Cat SX!!

Just wondering where to start with the gearing with a speed passion 5.5t, and what tyres work best in 4wd!!

Many Thanks

Paul
