Popped in last Sunday for an hour, my son keen to join would be really grateful if he could be made welcome, his name is Ross & may bring his friend Lewis along. Any help or advice would be gratefully appreciated.

Can't make it this week. Anybody wanna buy a laptop...?

[chrispattinson]

I'll pick the laptop up.
With quite a few new commers potentially attending. If anyone has old lipo they no longer use or need, or slower motors they no longer use, it might be worth bringing them along. Also the lads with the ansmann cars should be here this week, so if anyone has compatible wheels with written tyres, it might help. I have are wheels, don't know if I have the parts to make them work on ansmann cars though.
Looking forward to trying my new car tonight.

[FrogPrince82]

As I plan to do the regionals I will need a new BRCA approved Lipo, so am willing to sell off my 2 Voltz lipos to fund the replacement, if there is anyone just wanting some stick Lipos that are only around 6 months old for club running or to get started.

Another new car????
Would this be the team SVR? Or something even newer?

[chrispattinson]

Haha .... SVR and something ....,........ Older.

[corkyjohnson75]

3 rolls of carpet tonight chris. It's better for the new lads coz it's a struggle on the floor anyways. Can we get in for 5.30 anybody ?

[AfroP]

I know its short notice, but could any body give me a lift back to Washington after racing tonight?

[chrispattinson]

Hi Paul, I can take you home no problem.
One more for 2wd
David Snee ...... Apparently.

Another great nights racing last night folks so thanks again ! I hope Chris does not mind but I noticed he had done another great race report (its a nice touch I had never seen until this club !)

http://ne-rc.blogspot.co.uk/

[chrispattinson]

Hi Richie, yeah, started the report, but havnt uploaded the videos yet. I'll get them uploaded so I can finish the report tonight. :)
Chris.

[chris68nufc]

Another great turnout!! Shame I couldn't get there....hope my cars are ok for Worksop this weekend!!!

[FrogPrince82]

Another good evening's racing despite my best efforts to turn my DEX210 into a wreck :rolleyes: Definitely an evening to forget car wise with a broken front hub, broken front suspension arm, found a "lost" washer in my shock which was causing the shock shaft to lock at odd lengths (great for the handling), broken rear suspension arm, broken FR hinge pin holder, broken battery holder mount, plus tore 2 trouser pockets getting them caught on a latch on the front of the podium) :cry:

Thank you very much to Natalie for kindly lending me her car for the final round after irrepairably damaging mine just before the start :thumbsup: I have no idea why you would let me borrow your pride and joy after watching me cartwheel mine down the straight :wtf: but again thanks (quite liked the feel of the Schumacher you were running :D)

Looking forward to next week though as I was getting quicker each run whenever the car was on 4 wheels, some reason I don't get anywhere near as much drive when on my roof :woot:

[DAVO]

Best night so far for me track was hellish loads there i think 32 and we got to stay to the end for once:thumbsup:

Only thing is it possible to start racing more early the track was built for approx 18.30 but we never had the first race till approx 19.20ish
50 minutes of practice is to much and with there being more people (heats)if we can only stay till 21:00 due to kids at school we would prob only get 2 heats

Great night
Thanks
Davo

[mr emily]

Good nights racing!! managed to get a run or two with the RB6, nice!

The night was slow though, didnt get home till about 11.30 and we only got 3 qualys and another run, not a final. Track out quicker!!

I think part of the delay in getting started was teething issues with the new laptop, everything is now sorted with the laptop and timing system so hopefully should all be plug and plug this next week.

With the extra numbers that we have it may be a good idea to skip all practice and get straight into running the heats as soon as the track is ready.
What's everybody think?

Would also help dexter out with booking in if as many as possible responded to the threads here with car class, pt number and brca number(if u have one) and if your running 2.4 or different radio gear

[dpackster1980]

This is easily sorted.......

1) Get the track out straight away, the more people help the quicker we get started.
2) Pay immediately when you arrive.
3) No practice, that means none whatsoever as this causes delays when sorting heats.

Doing this means we'd start well before 7 and finish at a decent time especially if we can get in at half 5.

[DAVO]

Did not realise the lap top was the issue guys great job getting it sorted that fast.

Chris report is great your a pro at it mate...

[chrispattinson]

Haha ... I wouldnt go that far Davey.

Yes, it was the new laptop that delayed our start this week.
I think it would be easy to get going sooner. Track went up really well, and without practice, heat one on the line could easily be achieved for 18:45.

[Shifta]

We had a few problems getting the race data transferred onto the new laptop, the folder we needed to copy over was too big to fit on the memory stick! I couldn't believe it when I checked the memory size.. 200mb, I didn't realise you could get them that small!

Anyway it's all up and running now so we should be getting started much quicker in the future!

Thanks for everyone's patients while we got the new equipment sorted over the last couple of weeks :thumbsup:

Report of Sunday nights racing is finished, find it on my blog with results, video and photographs:

[Steven Forster]

Yeah as has already been mentioned, we decided to run the new laptop on sunday for racing and needed to install the following to get up and running.......

Printer Drivers

Serial Port Drivers

Race/Drivers Data

Also there were still people needed to be booked in including a few new racers ;) as well as trying out a new Loop and Coax cable :blush:

Good news is we are getting there and now need to try setting up the racers ability on the laptop to help sort the heats out, making it faster to set the heats up and a more even racing field :D

See you all this sunday :thumbsup:
