So, regional this weekend. Hopefully will be sun all around as weathers been nice up here. Any guesses on the winners with people doing well at the national this weekend, will anyone be up for it.

What’s the surface like this weekend? I realise it’s grass but what kind, dense and grippy (Batley like) or sparse and slippy(NERCR 2wd like?

For the guys that ran the nationals this weekend, any chance of a gentleman’s agreement not to run new tyres at any point???

Predictions, usual suspects, Bulk, Rich, Tom, Ben if he holds it together for a whole 2 qualifiers AND a final (optimistic).

Dan

Im just hoping to make the A again, i think Mr Lowe will take 4wd as the BJ4 is like a guided missile at the moment, 2wd is a lot more even, ill go for Craig Collinson.

Don't discount that Greenwood chap in 2wd, he's been quick recently

I'm running my tires from Bury, I'm sure Ben will go through 3 sets each day as usual

From what i remember, I think it may be a bit like batley but i am a bit unsure, I may go and have a look tonight to get an idea. As for results i think Richard Lowe or Criag collinson for 4wd and for 2wd it would either be Dan Greenwood or Tom Cockeril.

I'll go for Richard Lowe in 4WD, just ahead of Craig C and Snee. Dan Greenwood in 2WD, just ahead of Rich and Craig. (no pressure guys).

I'll be aiming to sneak into my second A final of the season, in Reading like 9th or 10th position.

yeah, cos we're not having much luck with the weather this year. Out of the 7 meetings I've done this year theres only been 3 dry ones!

I think last year I only raced one wet race (on road).

...discounting wrexham when it Hailed!

I think you lot were at the kiddy national the same weekend by the looks of bathys vid.

Is it 2wd one day and 4wd the other?

I might pop down on Saturday if there's racing, as i'm at GTi International on Sunday.

like Batley or it was last time we raced there some 5 or 6 years back now

but without the rain we've missed over the last few months to keep it lush it'll be thin on top like my dome by the EOR 3 on the corners

venue address for those that haven't read all the Teesside threads is

Preston Hall Museum and Park
Yarm Road,
Eaglescliffe,
Stockton-on-Tees
TS18 3RH
