2wd again for this lad...

[corkyjohnson75]

2wd for me to .

[chris68nufc]

Nobody at all will agree with me here but what's new??!!

I propose to run a little more slippy sections as we never get practive on the slippy these days with all of the 2wd buggies running!

There's nowhere to set your car up for the times you need a slippy setup cough Worksop!!

Anyway....I thought it was a good idea!!

[corkyjohnson75]

Get ya sell to benfield its slippy there mate . Joke , anyways who won at worksop ?

[beasty boys motorsport]

Could be 2 of us then if i pick my sx3 up in the morning and get electrics fitted in time for sunday ;)

[Steven Forster]

Who's running what class, ive currently got 10 people booked in........9 x 2wd and 1 x 4wd ??? :)

[Shifta]

I'll be doing 2wd..

[corkyjohnson75]

So plenty of carpet then .

[AfroP]

2wd here

[chrispattinson]

Probably 4Wd for me, but I'll alternate through the night.
More carpet = better racing, and I get to use my old pins.

[Shifta]

I think less carpet :woot:

[chris68nufc]

As selfish as I may sound.....we struggle when we race on low grip like Worksop....after round 2 at Seaham, the grip comes up anyway!!!

Less carpet so we can get setups sorted on the new cars?!!!

I did say it was selfish!!!

[Andyp]

I say no carpet at all should be interesting :thumbsup:

[chris68nufc]

Ha ha.....it's you who puts the bugger down!!!!

[mr emily]

The carpet put down for normal weeks is adequate, two rolls and a bit for the jump. Take the bit off the straight. Don't need it. Ha ha!!

We don't do drifting!!!

[N7ELA]

I raced the 3 weeks leading up to Xmas and the normal track conditions were perfect. I managed to get both my 2wd's set up perfectly well. (Then sold them)

But I agree the track at Xmas had too much carpet for me. Even though I only Kicked the K1 over there.

[Steven Forster]

Carpet down for the straight and carpet over a jump/table top and crash mats down for rumble strips...........???

:rolleyes:

[dpackster1980]

2wd for me.

[FrogPrince82]

Jamie - 2wd as that's all I've got!

[AfroP]

Glad your coming along to join in on the fun, see you there :)

We currently have 13 x 2wd and 1 x 4wd booked in so far :D

[FrogPrince82]

I'm not too sure if I'll go the 4wd buggy route as I love the look and idea of ShortCourse, so may get one of those in 2wd or possibly 4wd form.

[corkyjohnson75]

Book me in dexter lad , 2wd

Not many people run sc up here

[FrogPrince82]

Not many people run sc up here

I've seen that there aren't a huge amount, mainly just the 2wd and 4wd buggies.

It only takes a few to take the plunge and maybe more will come out of the woodwork and give them a go. I would be willing to travel to do some races.

They just look awesome and I bet they are hugely fun to drive :woot:

First of all I need to get to grips with my 2wd buggy to learn to drive properly :blush:

I like trucks as well

wouldnt do a 2wd short course not indoors at seaham anyway. far far too slippy for them

wouldnt mind a 4wd SCT or a stadium truck which are also good fun. and the durango offering looks awesome

the club SC10's would be alot easier to drive if they actually had the right tires on. Them all terrain tires arent gonna do shit apart from what they are designed for..........outdoor dirt/gravel !!!

They work for mid/rear 2wd buggies, so why not Short Course trucks.....???

Dunno, we'll see.

[chris68nufc]

Really really good night tonight....2wd action is where it's at at Seaham....great to see young blood aswell as experienced racers too!!

Track was quite good tonight, felt it flowed really well especially for 2wd

Schumacher dominance again at the top of the pile, All qualifiers were topped by an SV2 and finals were schumy 1-2....not sure about 3rd but takes the win anyway....well gone Jeff Steele!!

[AfroP]

Aye cracking nights racing!
Great to see some new faces and plenty racers all round.
Looking forward to next week

[chrispattinson]

Yeah, really enjoyed the racing.
Really close, and fair.
Good effort by all .... enjoyed watching the racing in all heats.
Well done to Jeff for the win, there was no where for me to get past, especially at that pace.
I still think Neil must've cut the track to get that Banzai lap in.

[dpackster1980]

Hey, 3rd was the 210 which was more than a match for any of the SV2s. I would've been right behind the train if Neil didn't roll over in front of me.

The track was good, flowing with the right amount of slippery bits.

Everyone was about the same very quick pace but the it only came down who didn't crash.

Bring on this Sunday. :thumbsup:

[chris68nufc]

How can you say that the Durango was more than a match for any of the sv2s? Surely you would have won a qualifier or a final if that was the case or are you saying your bad driving let the car down?

Did you win any of the qualifiers or the final?!!!:thumbsup:

There's always next week David!!!!

In some cases, yes I made stupid mistakes and didn't do the car justice.

As for the final I went wide and was hung out to dry into the first corner. With the track as it was it made it difficult to pass and make up places. I was all over the back of Chris until I hit Neil after he rolled over so I'm more than happy with the performance.

Your right there is always next week, bring it on. :thumbsup:

[chrispattinson]

I was all over the back of Chris :lol:

Nice and clean for a change, and it was appreciated. There wasnt much between any of the cars, just better reactions from the 2 leading Schumacher's to avoid the overturned car :woot:

Looking forward to next week.
