Ruined by the 1 car rule IMO.
Because of that I'll be sitting it out again.

Well it is an "Endurance race" and not a sprint relay.

I am sure Team shambles will be entering this bad boy!!

24 hour racing is ace!

Yes G I'm in it now! Although I said never again, with a Durango I think I would enjoy it!

Are we going to get it done?

How did you do at Worksop?

Thats part of what makes the event so attractive to alot of people. The fact that, as a team you have to make the car endure the 24 hours. Switching another car on when one ran flat would be too easy!

I cant wait! Should be a cracker of an event, just like last year!

LOL, I thought we said "never again"...
Although now I think back I remember it being a lot of fun, the less possitive bits such as tiredness, over-heating, tiredness, and tiredness are a bit of a blurry memory.

Dude, there is nothing more relevant!
Don't get me wrong, it's gonna be a great event (just like the last one) but how can we (as a club) justify an event that out-prices 99% of it's regular racers?
It's not like we're Worksop or other similar clubs that "just" run a winter series and a couple of huge meetings - we're a club that relies on the core racers turning up week in, week out (those that don't race anywhere else in other words) to keep the club running.

That's my lot - I'm finished on this subject! Hopefully I'll see some other club racers there:thumbsup:

Hi All

Just to let you know that as of this moment in time the event is ON - will let you know if anything changes.

Just a few ideas/comments that might help all of us:-

1) Mains power leads will be run into the hall from power points that are not on the same trip switch as the computer
Hopefully it will be 1 per team, at worst 1 for 2 teams - it may help if team members were to bring some good quality extension leads
just in case more are needed.
2) Each team needs 1 main pit table for mechanicing, battery charging etc
3) Separate tables are planned to be supplied (school) for battery change overs - adjacent to the track area (not for working on).
4) If team drivers can bring other tables - just in case they are needed, it would help.
5) Please bring your own chairs etc.
6) CATERING
The club/model shop will be selling tea/coffee/cup-a-soup etc and cold drinks, crisps, choc bars etc during the event
(at reasonable prices).
There are a number of quite local fast food outlets, some that will deliver to the school (Steven Pierce was looking into this).
7) We will supply rubbish bags - please try and take your own rubbish home with you (we have limited resources re rubbish at the school)

AS IT STATES ON THE ENTRY FORM ALL CLUB INCOME FROM THE EVENT (LESS COSTS) WILL GO TO THE LISTED CHARITIES.

Hope you have a good event - Regards, Derek Bradby

Think that can go down as the "i'll-fated post of doom".

Still was a great experience and can't wait to come back next year (but with a 4wd!) . We may have finished last but we did so in true Shambolic style - including a battery change 2 minutes before the end :woot::woot::woot::woot::woot:
