Ah is that what the "relieved can mounting" means? Is it ok being a black endbell instead of grey?

Yeah that's fine... theres a rule that acknowledges that endbell colours may vary. thats fine as long as the design is the same, which it is..

Thanks to every one who turner up to race today
Track was awesome, with some good amount of effort from Yardy and the Tinsley's I did abit but more donkey work!

Stu helped loads on the computer, and I think we both learnt loads again, with out Stuart helping out I don't think I could have raced, thx

Thanks for everyone's effort helping to put the track away, that really helps us loads!

See you next sunday!

Talking about regionals, we don't have to run all the meetings before the EOS finals do we, we could still run kiddy in sept/Oct

I really need another 4wd round

well done to all the team at Marston. Track was really good fun to race on. Had heat problems in round 4 and the final but that was my own fault for not checking the gearing Was having a good final till that point when there was 4 of us all trying for the win.

Personally for me it was nice to be able to go out and just drive rather than the car not really doing what i want it to. Looking forward to Kiddy as i will be running a new car at that meeting

My thanks as well to everyone involved in organising - the track was good to race on, with some nice 'friendly' jumps.

Just one request for next year: could the club invest in a lawnmower that collects the cut grass (and leaves)? I effectively lost both practice and Round 1 due to a rear wheel being full of grass, and therefore dragging and making the car dive to one side off-throttle - not fun. Once the track swept clean it was a really nice surface.

[DaveG28]

Just wanted to add to the thanks, had a great day and liked the track.

Personally loved driving in the damp as well, brilliant fun being able to powerslide everywhere!

Another smoothly run meeting by the Marston club. Thanks must go to JP and Stuart Whyman for keeping the computer going and putting up with those of us running PT's (thanks guys!).

Good track as ever, with well thought out features with non-damaging track markers. It was also not a power track which is good for regional and club drivers.

Did anyone else think that the back section with the hump jump absolutely nails to get consistently right throughout the meeting? Was a good challenge though...

Pity to see the 'Magic Smoke' make an appearance again although my Novak Brushless never missed a beat (thank god). Looking forward to Kiddy now, should be excellent.

I think the marston regional was one of the best ones ive been to i find marston to be a really good host club it would be nice to see marston have a national soon.

I loved all of the track except for the corner coming onto the straigh where i started to grip role it.

The best part of the weekend was beating doom.

Also brian my outdrives held out.

I agree with you there ash, the only thing that puts me off is the fact that there is no toilet avilable all day long!

[Doomanic]

Well run meeting as usual, but it seems that Marston is my bogey track.

Hmm, which is worse?
Me getting beaten by Ash at Marston, or Ash getting beaten by Callum at his home track?

[ashleyb4]
