Just to let you know the opening time for saturday will now be 9:30am and not 9:00am as stated on the website. I will e-mail everybody who has booked in for this event but if you are turning up on the day then you can now leave half an hour later.

Great day today. Thanks to WBMCC. Pitty the turnout was not massive. Dont know why. Track was good and its a great venue for offroad due to its size. Will deffo be at the next one. Did some vids so people can see what they missed out on!!!

What tyres do people use in 2wd at west bridgeford?

I'm guessing it would be minipin rear but what about the front?

ribbed or mini pins depends on you really

Minipins all round work well, but they do seem to wear down quite quickly. Staggered ribs work well to but don't offer as much steering as the minipins. Minispikes destroy themselves quite quickly so I wouldn't suggest them as a good front choice. Personal preference really, if you like quick steering then pins on the front, if you want your car to be more stable then staggered ribs all the way.

Results are up after round one and can be found here:-

The second round of the series will be my first off road race in a long time, and first time out with my Cat SX!!

Just wondering where to start with the gearing with a speed passion 5.5t, and what tyres work best in 4wd!!

Many Thanks

Paul
