Hey fella, you need to send the forms to Vanessa, £10 club membership, £13 BRCA.

New place is 'Star Sports Centre' in Splott.

some build pics, these jumps are by no means 'finished' and they will be covered in carpet.

There will be four of these


And one of these, the top of the table top is 8'x8'

That roller jump looks awesome!
I would advise bringing a few small bits of hardboard, just as smoothers for some of the sharper jumps.

We always run a small piece on the up-ramp of our table top at Hereford as otherwise it is very inconsistent!

Looking forward to Feb (seems a long way away at present!)

Cheers
Mark

We already realised that Mark, as I said, not finished yet, but the transition from floor to ramp and back will be smoothed out with some board that will curve.

What are you guys opinions of going under the table top to, if visibility isn't an issue?

Regards Table Top: If visibility is not an issue, should be okay...

Not really a fan of the cross over though, as people can still get stuck underneath the table top, which makes marshalling difficult. We had to stop a club race once, and restart, since it was ridiculous the number of cars trapped underneath the table top..

Decision is yours. Jumps look good though, looking forward to it!

is there any way you could board off the legs under the ramp to try and eliminate cars getting hung up underneath? just a thought

If we use is as a cross over, the legs will be boarded to provide a snag free passage underneath Andy, if thats what you mean?

Talking

I can confirm that the flight angle is very nice on and off the tabletop and also the smaller jumps give good height!

Thumbs up Mini Pins

Just to clarify that we are allowing 'any' tyre for this WRCA event which means that lots of people will be happy to know this means Mini pins are all good
