BRCA Mid South 2wd Regional - round 2 - Herts Nitro Model Car Club - Sunday June 5th
BRCA Mid South 2wd Regional - round 2 HNMC - Ware - Sunday 5th June (post shamelessly stolen from DMS (sorry darren ) Venue The venue for this round is the newly founded Herts nitro (electric) model car club, located here: Westmill Farm, A602,Ware, Hertfordshire, SG12 0ES google map here: http://www.hertsnitromodelclub.co.uk/index.php?ID=5 I cant say just how easy this place is to find, the westmill farm entrance is really big and obvious (its a pretty big complex). the entrance is probably no more than 500 - 600 meters away from the round about once you leave the A10. once you turn in, you will immediately look to the right and see both tracks. you can turn right into the field and park anywhere around the track. Times The Track is open 24x7 (light permitting ) but the gates are always open so you can turn up as early you like. Timed practise will start from approx 7.45 - 8.00 and will continue till just before 10am, so loads of time for practise. Time permitting, we will look at having 2 finals for everyone as well as the normal 3 finals for the A-finalists (but is purely based on time allowing) We also have one more club night before the event on Tuesday 31st, which you can arrive any time from 4pm onwards and racing will start 7.30ish (3 rounds 1 final ) Cost and Booking In The cost to race for those who are pre-booked is £10, limited booking in on the day may be available at the cost of £15. The open classes (4wd buggies, Trucks/SC's and Micros - if enough interest) are all £5 to race pre-booked - £10 on the day. All booking in is on the DMS Results website here - www.dmsresults.co.uk Facilities and Track The track is 99% astro with a couple of bits of wood and carpet for jumps Minipins and mini spikes are usable around the track. Theres LOADS of pitting space (literally a whole field ) but there is a small section under cover about 10 meters away from the track between the electric and nitro tracks. Tables are there, but no chairs. I would suggest bringing tables and chairs just in case. You will need to bring a generator or 12 volt suply for power. Please place generators with consideration for others [CONFIRMED] the burger van behind race control will be open on the sunday. Snacks can also be purchased in the complex on site and there is a McDonalds less than 5 minutes away at the hertford turn off on the A10 (and BP station) Camping: all camping, whether it is a tent, motor home or caravan will cost £10 and you can arrive anytime after 10am on the saturday. there is a shower block (brand new!) there and lots of facilities etc the herts nitro model shop will be open on the day from 8am till 2pm with a selection of tyres and spares. If you need anything i would suggest calling on 01920 466995 Mini spikes and mini pins have been found to work around the track. im afraid i cant tell you about wet conditions because we have had any yet! Hopefully we wont need to find out till after the regional As per BRCA rules, all LIPO batteries being charged MUST be inside a recognised LIPO sack (or similiar), anyone found not using one will be asked to leave (you have been warned)... PT's must be used (we only have a small handful of transponders which we'd rather not use) Trophies will be awarded for overall TQ, 1st 2nd and 3rd for the A final and first place in all 2wd finals (BRCA regional class) - there are no trophies for the open classes Limited spaces still available to pre-book for those who not yet entered.........

Enjoyed today, shame i don't compete in Mid South for 2wd this year....
Track was good attempt for first regional, some minor tweaks and we have another good venue. Well done to all the Herts crew. Also big well done to Nick Cotton (Tony Evdoka) and Matt Owen, proved the Vega RB5 in the finals. Also good drive from Storey in the finals, after unlucky qualifying. keeping up the push for Regional win. I will gladly claim FTP though just pipping Bloomers.... Sorry Ma!! Top 5 i think... Karl Jackson Lloyd Storey Simon Reeves Tony Evdoka Matt Owen

Great job by the herts crew, cracking track, like spenner says few tweaks and it's a great track to have in the region.

I popped down today to take a look and was really impressed with the track and facilities. Looks like the Herts crew have been really busy! Wish I could have raced today but It was good fun showing my 18 month old what it's all about instead. He enjoyed his hug from Nick Cotton this morning too!
Bad luck to Si Reeves for not converting the tq (always a bridesmaid hey), but welldone to Karl for what I think was his first regional win? Well done to the Vega boys () you were looking rapid all day and I thought Nick was going to take the second leg too! Anyway, I'm going to try and pop down on one of the Tuesday nights... I didn't realise it's only 15 miles from my house!

On behalf of Karl, Marc and everyone else who's helped with the track, i'd like say thanks for all the kind comments
Definetely makes it worth while and the way things are going to so far, it can only get better with everything we have planned. Apologies to all the a-finalists if i was rushing you with charging though! I took alot of good points on board about the track today and anyone else has any ideas or suggestions, do please let us know so we can make it even better for you guys Also congrats to all the winners, especially the top 3 in the a-final. considering its the first time we've had some precipitation, i think we saw some really good finals.

A very good effort today for your first Regional. A few points i'd like to make, to help for future meetings are the BRCA track rules:-
14.2 Tracks will be laid out so that there are no hidden areas when viewed from the driver‟s rostrum area.
14.4 Tyres will not be used to define the track at BRCA National and Regional Sanctioned events. The jump on the far right, you couldn't see the down ramp and i don't see the need for the car tyres? However this looks like it could be a top venue in the future! Richard Ralph |

Well done to Karl for coming 1st in the A final, his car looked very dialled in all day and for a Ansmann X2C, that would only cost £149.99 new is a very good result.
Great facility, I did suffer from interference all day from the furthest points of the track though. Very well run meeting. |

had no idea about the tyre rule i must admit. no need for them on a day like today i guess, but normally they're in to make the track abit less "moveable" for everyone practising mid week (specifically the 8th scale noisy things)
The jump was unfortunate really, we spent alot of time trying to make it visable on the down ramp. once we clear all the sand, we'll have an all new track layout which should put the jumps into a better position. thanks Richard.
