[QUOTE=Ray Mac;574130]Hi Mal! how's your web-site coming on? Was Bill able to help you sort out the transfer problem? See you Monday night, all being well.
Ray.[/QUOTE

no havnt sorted the transfer problem Ray. Looks like my site doesnt support html files, so im looking into a site that supports that type of file. i might just manually input the data onto my site for the time being( which'll take bloody ages!!!)

Here's a link for all you guys desperate to see your times etc.

Results 17 Oct 2011

Mal needs a site where you can FTP complete web pages - I believe I could give him a folder with password in my domain which hosts the pages in the above link.

Well 16 last night was a rather poor turn out by recent standards resulting in reverting to the 3 heat format - 2 TC heats of 5/6 and 1 Buggy heat of 6 - maybe the rest of you were trick or treating?
Yes I know that’s 17 but Mal ran both classes!
Anyway that puts us back in the position that the TC’s are still due the extra round the next time we need 4 heats - sorry to those who I changed it for last week but I tried!
Plenty of grip last night with the fastest lap and race time posted by a TC for a change J
As a matter if interest despite a couple of “holds” between races for people, we could’ve squeezed an extra round - guess we’re getting more efficient due to needing the 4 heats!
SO…..if we start the racing at 7:35 on auto next time we have 3 heats instead of 4 we should be able to run 5 quali and final for each heat. Do we go for that or do you all want to stick to 4 rounds and a final at the more relaxed pace.
See you all next week.

One buggy short of being able to split the class last week. Come on buggy lads we need 8 to allow a split into 2 heats of 4. Some of you occasional racers get along on a Monday and some of you regulars, drag someone else along if you want the heats split.

BTW anyone who doesn't get the emails, PM me your email address - you don't get then cos I don't have it!

[lazysurfer]

Well a good turn out last night - 20 on the track with 4 heats of 5, the TC’s getting the extra quali so buggies due it again next time.
VERY slippy for some reason, maybe the floor being cold - not sure although apparently even the basket ball lads had complained about lack of grip!
Couple of new drivers last night with Dave (Kyle’s dad) finally joining us on the track and a return for Mr Whitehead Jr racing a vintage Bosscat with a view to coming back regularly?
Good to have Bill Allison popping in to help Mal with the results posting - unfortunately on the one night this year Mal has been missing!!
Anyway hope to see you all again next week and praying for a bit more grip.
One last point I mentioned some time back - unless you have a good reason to park outside the hall such as Ray for being very old or you have too much kit to carry in one trip, can you please all go back to parking n the main car park. We’re getting more and more outside the hall parked on the grass and signs have now appeared saying don’t park on the grass so it’s only a matter of time before we get a complaint.
If you do have reason to park at the hall please keep to the tarmac - if you get blocked in - unlucky!

Cheers

PS Bill PM me your email and i'll send over the file

I think this looks about right.

Winter Series 2011

Someone will let me know for sure if it isn't

Looks best in IE, as all 3 colours show - other browsers only show in two colour (excluding the text link colourings) - perhaps Mr bbkRC will one day change the coding.

Nice one bill, think everybody will appreciate it...........as for colour wise i prefer the white and black back ground best but not complaining as its alot better than nothing at all

cheers

Spiffing Effort Bill well appreciated, thanks

[Ray Mac]

Hi Bill! seeing the results in that format certainly brought back memories of results from our meetings at Nissan. Those were the days! what do you say Bill ?
Keep'em coming. See you soon.

The Old One

[Ray Mac]

Hi Mal! Is everything OK ? You were a big miss on Monday night I take it you've read all the results, and what went on that night. You would probably have been in the same boat as the rest of us, struggling for the elusive "GRIP", which a few of us failed to find.
So, let us know how things are, and hurry back.
Ray.

Ok guys your weekly chase to get your sorry selves along to TyneMet on Monday to race! - extra round for the Buggy lads this week assuming we have enough for 4 heats.
Hopefully a bit more grip this week too, guess new tyres are on the list for me.
And a quick reminder “DON’T PARK ON THE GRASS!” Use the main car park unless you have a good reason not to or are as old as or older than Ray!
Thanks to Bill for posting the link to our results on oople and also a list of “WANTED MEN”
If you’re name appears below we’re wondering where you’ve disappeared to and if you’re still alive but mainly why you’re not racing - what’s put you off?

Gary Campbell
Paul Ferris
Harry Vaulkhard
Jason Seymour

Are the ones that spring to mind!

Cheers

[Ray Mac]

OK Mal! you've got what affects all of us. There's been a few who have only come to socialize, which costs nowt, you're more than welcome to do the same anytime your funds are depleted. Your company is better than a "no show".
So come along, even if just for an hour or two.
Your "old" mate Ray
