good days racing cheers rick the only fault I find is all the hanging around if you have 5 or 6 heats surely there should be no need for a 15min plus break between rounds as some people have a way to travel , surely a 5 min break would be plenty as some people left before the end . I also thought there was to be no parking on the tarmac in case of an emergency or has that rule now subsided if there are rules surely everyone should adhere to them .

Hi Andy
on the first point a comprimise might be needed here,as when we first started
i tended to rush through each round, and i was asked to leave a little break to
give people with one battery a chance to charge,maybe we were a bit relaxed
and 5 to 10 mins turned into 15 to 20, i will keep my eye on this in future
The no parking on the tarmac is mainly to keep it clear for emergency vehicles to
gain access if needed,and with the lorry trailer that is parked on the middle area
not everyone could of fitted in... so some people parked near the edges of the
tarmac carpark whilst leaving the middle free

This is a difficult one and wasn't helped much by the fact that the nitro guys were running as well. I think in the morning when they were on track it wasn't practical to run at the same time which is why the gap was slightly longer. I personally liked the gap and thought it was about right. It gave me a good amount of time to make setup changes and to test them out before my heat. As the saying goes " you can't please all the people all the time!"

Quite happy with the gap myself, I like to run 2 classes most of the time and that gap gave me enough time to keep up. You could maybe knock 5 mins off it but no more in my opinion.
Also I go out for a days racing, I don't really want to be all done by 2.
I live over an hour away from the track.

Good work as always to every one that helped.
