All ready for tomorrow now, hopefully a decent grid will turn up

[nippy57]

Great fun at Wycombe Micros today. Thanks for a well run event with lots of practice. Well done to Darren. Looking forward to the next one in January.

[Darren Boyle]

Yep, great day, highly enjoyable and superb venue and facilities....

Online booking in for rounds 2, 3 and 4 is now live on our booking in website - www.dmsresults.co.uk (http://www.dmsresults.co.uk)

[Karting]

First of all thank you everyone who turned up and made it a great meeting :)

Nice friendly, relaxed atmosphere, just the way it should be around Christmas.

Some great racing at the top of the meeting, with Darren Boyle taking all the heats, But John Barnes, kept him honest and Darren had to improve twice to keep at the top.

In the 'A' Final Darren had it all his own way and eased to victory in all 3 Finals.

'A' Final Overall Result:
1st Darren Boyle - Losi Mini8
2nd John Barnes - Losi Mini8
3rd Dave Richards - Losi Mini8

The first 2 'B' Finals were dominated in much the same way as Darren had in the 'A' Finals by Dave Hall. However in the 3rd Final, Dave dropped down the 3rd and Leading was Gary Jordaan, it stayed this way until the last minute where Gary Got caught With a Back Marker and Craig Homer got handed the win.

'B' Final Overall Result:
1st Dave Hall - Losi Mini8
2nd Craig Homer - Losi Mini8
3rd Gary Jordaan - Losi Mini 8

I hope everyone enjoyed it and will return for the 2nd round!

Hi Sam,

Glad the roads are OK over there at present, over here though they are not so clever especially in the van which is not too useful in the snow, just taken me over 30 mins to get to the shop which is under 2 miles away, lots more snow forecast for today and later tonight sadly, so I will be keeping a close eye on the weather before making a judgement call if I will be there tommorow or not. I think John and Craig are the same too speaking to them both last night........

Maybe if the snow does persist we consider moving it back until next week?

Darren

[Colin Kirkham]

Okay cheers, well do our best to get there if we can but like Darren will have to keep an eye on the weather, we have lorrys getting stuck all over the place today.:(

[Karting]

Tomorrow Is cancelled. Snow here is horrendous. There is no point anyone getting injured tryin to get here.

More details soon!

Round 2 started a week late, with the Snow the previous week knocking the event back a weekend.

With a grid of double the drivers from the 1st round it was a great turnout and promised even better racing.

After the first round of FTQ Wycombe Local Hero, Jay Thorpe was on provisional pole with a 22L-312.41 with his LWB LRP Shark but only by a mere 3 seconds over Darren Boyle in his Mini 8ight.

Second round of FTQ saw Darren improve to a 23L-305.22, with John Barnes taking second place once again only 3 seconds behind the Leader.

Third round now saw John take provisional pole with a 23L-304.84 and Darren did improve. A few more places down the grid saw postions 5th-10th all covered by just a smidge over a lap.

The Fourth and final round saw Darren once again take Pole off John by just 2.5seconds

http://i34.photobucket.com/albums/d106/samdimelow/9C314E40-201C-48CF-A068-BFCAE9E6705D-21209-0000169BA112AB57.jpg

The 'C' Final's looked (on paper like Gary Batchelor walked the Finals) but in reality 2 out of his 3 wins all came within the last minute of each heat. Colin Kirkham, finished with 3 second places and Craig Homer had 3 third places. Tony Stark (Ironman Himself) and Andy Evans each had very mixed finals.

'C' Final
1st-Gary Batchelor-Mini 8ight
2nd-Colin Kirkham-Mini 8ight
3rd-Craid Homer-LRP Shark
4th-Tony (Ironman) Stark-Mini 8ight

'B' Finals went down to the third final to sort out the winner. Both Dave Richards and Derek Nash both went into it with a 1st and 2nd each. However the third final went to Dan Andrews, with Dave Richards getting 2nd place and the 'B' Final win. Mark looked well on to challenge his son Dan for 3rd place overall but sadly stripping his spur gear put a end to that challenge.

'B' Final
1st-Dave Richards-Mini 8ight
2nd-Derek Nash-Mini 8ight
3rd-Dan Andrews-Mini 8ight
4th-Mark Andrews-Mini 8ight

The 'A' Final went to plan for Darren Boyle and he won the first 2 races tying the 'A' Final win up with a final to go. After the 2nd Round John, Sam Dimelow and Jay all tied with 6 points and it came down to the 3rd Final. However in the 3rd final John beat Darren, to seal 2nd in the final and it just left Sam and Jay to battle for 3rd. After a race long battle Sam came out on top by less than the home straight.

'A' Final
1st-Darren Boyle-Mini 8ight
2nd-John Barnes-Mini 8ight
3rd-Sam Dimelow-Mini 8ight
4th-Jay Thorpe-LRP Shark

I would like to Thank everyone who Turned up and raced. Today was very enjoyable.

I'm just waiting on a replacement part for the EMB-1 from Schuuy which (touch wood) should come through this week. If it does then I will more than likely see you.

I've not read the rest of this thread but can I book in on the day or do you need to know in advance? I appriciate the organising from the BRCA Nationals so understand if you need to know asap

Hopefully you can come down, as i know some of our club members are interested in seeing the Schumacher.

Either booking in, in advance on (www.dmsresults.co.uk) or on the day are fine. (as i have set aside 1hr30mins from doors open till first race for practise and booking in so with ours numbers it is fine)

If you can make it drag some friends along too :)

[Karting]

Juat a quick notice, if your from the area and you have a micro, why dont you come race? The track is setup and looking good, the heating is on! :)

Racing starts at 10.30 so you have 1hr 30mins to get here! ;)

Round 3 of the winter series Sponsored by www.X-factory.co.uk got underway with another good turnout for such a niche market.

http://i34.photobucket.com/albums/d106/samdimelow/temporary_zps91a36072.jpg

The track proved to be very challenging with drivers actually saying it was faster to be slow. (Which makes no sense to me and maybe why I struggled?)

After the 4 rounds of timed qualifying once again Darren Boyle was on top, (again). John Barnes claimed 2nd place, with Gary Jordan only 5 seconds behind in 3rd and Jay Thorpe in 4th just another few seconds behind Gary. Top JNR was Daniel Andrews with a very impressive 6th place only missing out on the A final by a lap. (But he was 2 whole laps ahead of his dad, Mark Andrews!)

‘D’ Final
Mike Weir cleared up with 3 wins out of 3 to claim the win, Brothers Tom and Ben Kirkham did very well and both improving throughout the whole, getting better and faster with every run.

‘D’ Final
1st Mike Weir – Losi Mini8
2nd Tom Kirkham – Losi Mini8
3rd Ben Kirkham – Losi Mini8

‘C’ Final
The ‘C’ Final went all the way to the 3rd final to be sorted and it was so close between the groups that the person leading going into the final hadn’t actually won either of the previous finals. The final was a real belter and Mark Andrews and Colin Kirkham both traded the lead of the race (and the overall finals position) multiple times and it all came down to the last lap in the end with Mark taking the win by 3 seconds, Tied on Points it went down to who’s win was fastest and with that Colin took the ‘C’ Final. Tony Stark finished a lap behind and 3rd in final overall with 3 straight 3rd’s and Craig Homer DNF’D.

‘C’ Final
1st Colin Kirkham – Losi Mini8
2nd Mark Andrews – Losi Mini8
3rd Tony Stark – Losi Mini8
4th Craig Homer – LRP SWB Shark

‘B’ Final
Top JNR driver Daniel Andrews won both the first finals, with Sam Dimelow, Andy Evans and Gary Batchelor finishing both finals in their respective order. With the 3rd final there was a win for Sam and a 3rd for Gary but no change to the overall final positions.

‘B’ Final
1st Daniel Andrews – Losi Mini8
2nd Sam Dimelow – Losi Mini8
3rd Andy Evans – Losi Mini8
4th Gary Batchelor – Losi Mini8

‘A’ Final
With Darren on Pole again anyone could have been mistaken into thinking that the race would be the same as the previous 2 rounds. The first final Darren won, but only by a mere 5 seconds over John Boyle. The 2nd final however John came to the good and won the final with Darren finishing 3rd place and Gary Jordan taking 2nd. Jay Thorpe, proving that the LRP LWB Shark is still competitive finished on the same lap as Gary Jordan. The 3rd final was back to normal running order and Darren took the win of race, Finals and the Overall Series. Gary Jordan once again did a great drive and finished 2nd place with a string of great laps. Jay Thorpe taking a great 3rd and John letting the pressure getting to him, sweated and cursed his way to 4th place.

‘A’ Final
1st Darren Boyle – Losi Mini8
2nd John Barnes – Losi Mini8
3rd Gary Jordan – Losi Mini8
4th Jay Thorpe – LRP LWB Shark

That sums up round 3 and I hope my reports have got better with each round. Was a great turnout and I enjoyed the company.  May have a slight problem with the 4th Round so I will be contacting everyone in the very near future.

[Jonesy]

Apologies I couldn't make it and sorry for not letting you know, I have the replacement part but just couldn't get there

Not to worry and I hope to see you all at Caldicot in a few weeks

[Karting]

With round 4 coming up very soon (infact two weeks time!) its time to start getting interested again!

For the finale what would every one like? Flat? Fast? Flowing? Jumping? Twisty?

Also any particular jumps or feature you have like from the previous 3 rounds you would like to have included? if you cant remember the layout then i have posted the pictures below.

As always please sign up on www.dmsresults.co.uk just so i can get a rough figure of how many heats are needed. (Although you dont have to you can just turn up, it does help me)

Also with this being the Last rounds the Championship trophies will be handed out AND a raffle will be provided by our Series sponser:

Thank you to everyone who turned up and raced today. We had 23 (TWENTY THREE!!) drivers for the day! Thats a stunning number.

A full race report will be a bit later than normal as ive now headed off to a karting national (i had to miss the practise day to run it for you guys today, so tomorrow is race day with no testing, but will see if it was worth it tomorrow ;) )

With the Last and Final round of a massively sucsessful series hosted at www.wycomberacing.co.uk sponsored by www.xfactoryrc.co.uk now completed im glad to mention that in total over the 4 rounds we had 26 different drivers compete and all did well in their own rights.

Didnt come out too well thouhg :/
http://i34.photobucket.com/albums/d106/samdimelow/temporary_zpsdfaaaf27.jpg

Track Fact: The raised off camber sweeper with the nipples on the inside, caught every single driver out more than once! It got to the point that Darren even decided to give them a name. The Himalayas as they were known were a wonderful feature and something i shall be re-creating again in the future :)

The Himalayas:

http://i34.photobucket.com/albums/d106/samdimelow/temporary_zps2da8220d.jpg

Round 1 of 4 FTQ went to Darren Boyle on his Losi Mini 8 with a cracking 23L 5.74s, he was over 2 laps clear of second place John Barnes. 3rd Place was our top Jnr Daniel Andrews. Craig Homer giving his new 'Schumacher Micro' its first run in anger he did brilliantly to bring it in home in 5th Place.

Round 2 of 4 FTQ closed the gap up between the top of the order with improvements made by John and Daniel to close in to Darren and bringing his gap down to less than a lap. From 4th place however down to 11th were all covered by less than a lap.

Round 3 of 4 FTQ saw John and Daniel once again bring the times down and close in on Darren. Gary Jordan in a lower heat, Jumped from 8th in RD2 to 2nd in RD3. Craig in his Schumacher was still putting in reasonable times and hanging onto the back of the fight for the 'A' final. The youngest driver of the series, Ben Kirkham, was doing well and improving with every single heat.

Round 4 of 4 FTQ once again see Gary, Daniel and John all closed the gap to Darren but none could beat his fasest FTQ 1 time to take pole. Harry Redstone made the 'B' final on his first time at the track. A special mention to his father Dave who bought a Losi Mini 8ight at the start of the day, built up the car and charged the batteries, competed in the Final FTQ. Just shows how easy it is to get racing with Micro Cars!

'F-Final' Went to Jon Faull with a clean streak of wins, with Dave Redstone taking 2nd and Ben Kirkham taking 3rd.

1st-Jon Faull-LRP Shark
2nd-Dave Redstone-Losi Mini 8ight
3rd-Ben kirkham-Losi Mini 8ight

'E-Final' was another straight forward set of Finals with Tony Stark taking all 3 wins quite comfortably with Tom Kirkham, Ian Smith and Ian Roberts all taking there respective postion in all 3 finals.

1st-Tony Stark-Losi Mini 8ight
2nd-Tom Kirkham-Losi Mini 8ight
3rd-Ian Smith-losi Mini 8ight
4th-Ian Roberts-LRP Shark

'D-Final' Took all 3 heats to find a winner and the winner was Mark Andrews. He narrowly pipped Colin Kirkham to the win by a single point. Andy Evans claimed 3rd with two 3rd places and Wycombe Virgin, Chris Rodgers finished less than a lap behind everytime in 4th place.

1st-Mark Andrews-Losi Mini 8ight
2nd-Colin Kirkham-Losi Mini 8ight
3rd-Andy Evans-Losi Mini 8ight
4th-Chris Rodgers-Losi Mini 8ight

'C-Final' also needed all 3 finals to decide on a winner as there were 3 different winners. Gary Batchelor took the 1st win, Dave Hall took the 2nd win and another WRCC virgin, Dominic Powles taking the 3rd win. The result went down to best time and that was Dave Hall. Craig in his Schumacher EMB-1 hit slight problems as you would expect with brand new cars and did the best his little thumbs could do.

1st-Dave Hall-Losi Mini 8ight
2nd-Gary Batchelor-Losi Mini 8ight
3rd-Dominic Powles-Losi Mini 8ight
4th-Craig Homer-Schumacher EMB1

'B-Final' Was sewn up with 3 wins by Sam Dimelow. Harry Redston claimed second place with Dave Richards and Derek Nash taking 3rd and 4th although joint on points.

1st-Sam Dimelow-Losi Mini 8ight
2nd-Harry Redstone-Losi Mini 8ight
3rd-Dave Richards-Losi Mini 8ight
4th-Derek Nash-Losi Mini 8ight

'A-Final' started off with Daniel Andrews taking the first final after a great and consistant race. Gary Jordan taking 2nd and Darren Boyle taking a surprise 3rd. 2nd final it was order as normal with Darren taking the win, followed by Daniel. Meaning it went down to the final race and with Darren taking the win he sewed up the final race of the series.

1st-Darren Boyle-Losi Mini 8ight
2nd-Daniel Andrews-Losi Mini 8ight
3rd-Gary Jordan-Losi Mini 8ight
4th-John Barnes-Losi Mini 8ight

After the great day of racing trophey presentation for the series took place and the top 10 drivers plus Top Jnr were handed there trophies.

http://i34.photobucket.com/albums/d106/samdimelow/temporary_zps5d4733e6.png

1st Darren Boyle, 2nd John Barnes, 3rd Sam Dimelow, 4th and Top JNR Daniel Andrews, 5th Gary Jordan, 6th Dave Richards, 7th Craig Homer, 8th Gary Batchelor, 9th Mark Andrews and 10th Colin Kirkham.

I must say that the racing and the company was fantastic at each and every round and the grid varied from top 1/10th National drivers to complete and utter rookies. There was someone for everyone to race.

After the trophies, came a raffle and with prizes supplied by;
http://www.xfactoryrc.co.uk/images/xfactory_header.jpg
and
http://www.oople.com/rc/media/ooplecomlogo.jpg

there was something for everyone. The winner of the top prize was Dominic Powle who won a brand new Carbon Chassis with alloy kick up. This however didnt come easy as he threw his ticket away beforehand and had to search through the bin and fight with old pizzas to get it back.

Finally, i personally would like to thank, Darren Boyle with all his help with timing and bringing along spares to all rounds. Also a special thanks goes to Gary Batchelor and Tony Stark for helping setup and remove the track for every round.

There WILL be a winter series next season 6 rounds with dates to be posted closer to the time. I also plan to hold a few special rounds over the summer just so everyone can keep there thumbs in.

If anyone has any comments or photos, please post and i hope to see you all next year!

Hi Sam,
Great report & very enjoyable series, looking forward to the next one. On that note are you opening up earlier on Easter Monday by any chance, wanting to stretch the GTB's legs.
Cheers

We are opening up earlier, but we are restricted on parking on weekdays. So we will open up at 4.30 with racing starting at 5.30-6. (i will start another thread later)
