I won't be there either!

Huw try this:
To adjust the slipper, remove the body and
insert a 2mm (or 5/64”) hex wrench through the center of the top deck (or through the bottom slot in the chassis).
Then, grab both of the rear wheels and rotate forwards to tighten and backwards to loosen. As you spin the wheels,
you’ll feel the motor click every ¼ of a wheel revolution. At the track, tighten or loosen the nut in 2 click increments until
you hear only a faint slipping sound for 1-2 feet on takeoffs.

Shamelessly stolen from the manual at:

I'll be there, hopefully awake enough to concentrate for longer than 2 mins at a time so I can finish a race without crashing every 3 corners

As Andy and Pete are not going to be here this week. We need as many people at the club early. (6:30) to help get everything out and get the track built. If everyone wants to get 3 rounds plus a Final round in, the track needs to be built by 7:50 so we get started for 8:00. The earlier we start the more races we can get in.

We Also need as much help at the end of the night to help pack away. Again, the more people we have to pack away the more races we can get in. Every bit of help counts.

Best I can hope for is 7 o clock. Though more likely quarter past. Anyone available to get the keys at 6.30?

I'm on a training course in Bristol all this week so on friday have to get back from Bristol to cardiff then back to Caldi so would be pushing it to be there at before 7 let alone pick up the keys...

I've never picked the keys up before so am not sure where to go to get them either...

So shall we aim to get to club for 7:00. If the keypersons house is wheelchair friendly (I DON'T DO STEPS) I'll go and pick them up no problem? But i've never been there so I'll need address?

Mike, take your RC stuff to Bristol with you? Go racing on your way home? Or you being transported over there?

Anyone who can be there early can get the keys, PM pete or me for details!

blimey this is a bad week for early birds.

I'll get the keys, i've done it before and i will do my best to be there around 6:30-7 traffic permitting.

If for any reason i get held up in traffic (the M4 is not very predictable on a friday night) can someone pm me their mobile number so i can text them if i am going to be late?

Also as you dont do anything on a friday at work andy can you pm/email me a track design
