Batley Club Meetings

DianneH · #1 31-03-2008

We really do need to get the club meetings going - we have a meeting on Sunday 10am - 4 pm and it would be really good to see many of you there.

We had great weather on Sunday but only 4 drivers turned up - I know it was the end of year finals at Worksop but I put the meeting on the calendar to try to cater for those of you that had not qualified to race at that meeting.

Come on drivers - support the local club before it closes down through lack of support!!

I expect there will be more people this coming Sunday, assuming the weather is ok

I'm hoping to be there, weather permitting

I have a minor issue,

We are expected to be there for 10 am which is fine, but if it is called off it can be posted on here before 9am which is good, but............. it takes me an hour and a half to get there so i would be half way down the A1

Any chance it could be posted earlier if it is going to be cancelled

If its cancelled at 10am jump back on the M62 come to Bury

I think thats looking like the better option for me anyway

how many batteries would you recommend using?

jimmy · #10 01-04-2008

You need enough so you can charge them up between rounds - I always charge up before a meeting and if it's just me racing (not vicky also) then I generally have enough to do all day without charging.
Ideally you'd need 3 packs of nimh cells so you can charge one up whilst racing with one and letting the one you've just raced with cool down.. if that makes sense.

I assume we can race with LiPo at batley club meetings - and with lipo you can probably get away with 1 pack since you can race & put them on charge quickly before going out to marshall (run!)

One won't do, you need three really. If your running a b4 you won't need anything to fancy.

What charger are you using to charge from the 12 volt?
