Just remember the rule book states the lap should be at least 130m long. I think Oz's was only about 20m longer than that, so not too big IMHO.

14.5 At all National events, tracks will be a minimum of 3 metres wide and 100 metres in length.
14.6 At Sanctioned events, other than Nationals, tracks must be a minimum of 2.4 metres wide.
14.7 The straight for starting finals, will be a minimum of 20 metres long, with no obstructions, including any form of jump, sudden rise or fall.

But was that the 2008 book? It has changed this year, we read it on Saturday

The 2008 .pdf is not on the website.

It was just when someone refered to the Oz track being too long at ~150m, Tom Cockerill said the rule had changed to 130m, Mike Riley swore it was 100m, my book was in my bag - not as sad as it first sounded. I didn't know the rule number or anything like some do.....

The Oz track didnt seem that long to be honest, i felt it was about right.

What was the outcome of the question about how many BRCA sections there were? was it 12 or 13?

If anyone needs cells / packs for Talywain then please let me know soon so I can arrange for them to be delivered on the day by Mike. I might be coming down Saturday but only to spectate.

Cheers
Neil

they will be using better jumps and the banking on the right side of the field, food will be available all day, not to sure on the bar though.

Chris, PM me if you got any front Losi 4wd wheels please.
