I might be getting the keys earlier tomorrow, but it depends on something happening in the morning as i dont have a time for it yet - i will post up on here if im getting the keys by lunchtime tomorrow.

[Caine]

Be good to see everyone its been a while!

[jaffacake]

Is vintage running tomorrow?

[brian s]

no reason why vintage should not run as there will be five of us wanting to run.

thanks Phil,will have money for you!

[axeman]

pete are you going to limit the classes people can run???

last vintage night was are mare with 4min heats all night. my car didn't roll till after 9pm.

[Balders]

Don't worry Steve, we should get lots in tonight.

Matt and I hope to get there early enough to chuck a track down and tonight is special because we don't have to clear away at the end of the night due to the National on Sunday.

[blue_pinky]

Last vintage was a bit of a shocker...didn't get set up too early, then tons of people turned up and booking in took ages, it all conspired against us that particular week so we didn't get started til after 8...the 4 minute qualifiers were a last resort desperate measure to keep the masses and neighbours (mostly) happy!!!

We've set a new start time target for every week as a result...we now aim to be racing by 7:30pm each week...so we should be able to cope with 7 heats if that's what turns up and still get 4 rounds of racing in.

Then if less turn up we get even more racing in instead.

And as Mike says, tonight is a bit 'special' as we can race right up to finish as it's not being packed down

Also as a result of that week and our general busy'ness these days, the national is allowing us to build up some pre built track features so that should help me and anyone else who builds the tracks to build better tracks and features faster each week, making setup (and pack down) that little bit less hectic to hopefully.

[peetbee]

Echo what Balders and Andy hjave said for this week, but as an aside, yes if it is busy we will potentially limit what classes people run regardless of whether there is vintage or not!

TBH even if last vintage hadn't run then it wouldn't have made any difference to the number of heats we had as it was freakishly busy that week (ie everyone running vintage wasn't running modern that week, if they'd run modern instead then it would still have been enough for an extra heat, hope that all makes sense!)
