Think it should be make specific, there should be BJ4, B44, xx4/x5 and 501x Teams, now that would add to the rivalry!!

Lee
17-12-2007, 07:50 PM
Oh yes!!! now we are talking.

It would be great to see the BJ4 against the sport version head to head:o

How many to a team?

17-12-2007, 08:39 PM
Whenever i go to, i can never be bothered to join a team, so i tell them in advanced that i am goining and they normally sort me out into a team on the day. But it is really good as normally the teams have a variety of people in so there is some good and some not so good drivers giving a little competition between one or two teams. So you end up not caring how well you are doing but end up having a rivalry with just a couple of teams making it even more enjoyable.:)

rcracer

I don't know, it's complex.
I'd like to do the endurance 'cos it's ace.
I've told Rothers that I'll do the SRCC GP and I'll feel a arse if I swap.
I've sort of promised Carrie a week in Portugal if she can get a passport in time and I can get the time off work.

:wtf:

super__dan
18-12-2007, 07:16 PM
Lee,

I've realised that after telling the misses how I'm doing less racing in the winter, after new year there are 5 meetings in a row which will have to go. The endurance is proper ace though, looking for a team?

ben
18-12-2007, 07:20 PM
Do the enduro stu its really good fun. And youll be able to get some more randomness photos.

lil ben

Lee

Team doesn't need to be any bigger than 6 or 7 to be honest else you don't get enough track time, I ran 14 minutes with the vintage last year I think!

Dan

footey
18-12-2007, 09:11 PM
how long is the race for dan

ben
18-12-2007, 09:18 PM
6 hours

WHITTLER555
18-12-2007, 10:17 PM
Lee, count me in yours and Northy's team!

It will be a good day to find a set up on the BJ Sport!:D

Paul Rotherham won't be happy as I am booked into SRCC but I did'nt realise there was a date clash and I have been trying to win this team race for years.

Sorry I did'nt respond earlier, I have had a lot of interest in the items I am selling on Ebay;)

Damo

Xtals are 965 985 845.

josh_smaxx
18-12-2007, 10:18 PM

Cool, so our team is

Super Dan
Rich Lowe
Damo
Northy
Benneth
Jim Dixon
Me

7 seems a good number approx 1 run an hour;)


and julie (the brains behind the outfit)

ben
18-12-2007, 10:25 PM
Seems like a good team to me. You can sometimes end up getting a lot more run time if someone breaks. Marshalling is the best part lol.

lil ben

Northy
18-12-2007, 10:29 PM
Lee,

Julie will help to keep us organised, she's done an awesome job in the past :D

Also, what is the score with transponders, is there just 1 hand out one that gets swapped between cars:confused:

ben
18-12-2007, 10:42 PM
yeh 1 transponder per team. We had toms dad on our team last year who was well quick at changing it and very well organised aswell. But im sure julie will be able to match the high standards as usual:D:D:D

lil ben

Lee
18-12-2007, 10:45 PM
is it usually pretty close or does 1 team win by 40 laps or so?

tc2k
18-12-2007, 10:48 PM
This years

1 York 1036/ 5h58m33.638
2 Team Sakapu.com 1021/ 5h58m25.661

So 15 laps

Northy
18-12-2007, 10:49 PM
Papa smurf and Julie will be the ultimate combination...... :D

Richard Lowe
18-12-2007, 10:50 PM

8.5 minutes each, pah we can manage longer than that!

Lee
18-12-2007, 10:52 PM
I think tom was told he was away on the 13th;) by the mrs:p

will papa smurf come up without tom? Cockerill would be an ace addition even if its just for the fastest lap award:D

ben
18-12-2007, 11:05 PM
i doubt mike will come up just to put transponders in and out of cars. :confused:

Team building?:confused::confused: wot do you mean.

lil ben

stewcc
19-12-2007, 09:30 PM
The race is 6 hours long with no interruptions.

Teams are welcome but the number per team is flexible and depends upon the number of entries we get.

Of late we have ended with teams of 7 or 8. Is a good balance between track time and getting prepared. If the numbers don't fit the team sizes may be reduced.

If you are not in a team, don't worry, we will find somewhere for you to race.

I am no longer running it so send entries to Gary Waller, or to me ([email protected]) and I will forward them.

Stu
19-12-2007, 09:38 PM
Shit, last meeting there and I may be missing it - gutted. For me it's been the best-by-far indoor venue over the last few years, if not ever.

ben
19-12-2007, 09:45 PM
yep agree with ya stu. Definatley has been the best indoor track. I wish york had somewhere, for a permanent indoor or outdoor track. A big shame teesside are losing the warehouse:(:(:(

The 'supporting docs' that were sent with Carrie's passport application arrived back today, I suspect that means her passport will be returned soon also, and I'll have to go on holiday to Portugal instead of racing.

Cockerill
02-01-2008, 02:37 PM
If everyone plans on entering on the day expect a very long day. Its MUCH easier to enter a team than for him to sort it on the day. Even if you enter part a team it will make the race directors job much easier, and when you do enter try and have as many as crystals as possible, don't just tell him your favourite ones.

Mike Hudson
02-01-2008, 04:08 PM
i myt hav 2 find another crystal set now seen as im down to 2 after 1 of my sets at teeside regional became faulty, threw 2 of my races in the bin, will get another set maybe 2 pairs, what ime are people going to be arriving at teeside???

Yes guy's, its much less time consuming if you have your teams already sorted.

Lee
04-01-2008, 07:06 PM
Our team is already sorted, and entered,but im afraid im going to have to drop out, i have just been offered another contract in norway which is due to start on tuesday, but i will be home for the regional;)

Sorry boys

Northy
04-01-2008, 07:19 PM

Who's in the team? Get on msn, we'll sort it.

Jane
04-01-2008, 09:31 PM
Hi Everyone
If you have your teams and everyones crystals ready could you email them to me please so that we can save Bill a bit of time on the day, which will mean more time racing for you guys ;)
Doors open at 8:ooam and hopefully racing will start at 10:00am. Caroline will have racers rest open as usual.
Anything else you need to know just email and I will help out where I can.

If you require a sponsor form let me know

Thanks
Jane Young
Competition Secretary TRCC :)

PS Please note that we are loosing the warehouse but we do have a NEW VENUE so racing will continue. I will put a thread on this site soon with new venue details, dates etc

Would it be insane to do both off and on road at the endurance?

09-01-2008, 04:58 PM
Last year there wasnt enough people, I dont think anyone turned up for touring, dunno about this year, would be a bit hectic.

super__dan
09-01-2008, 05:04 PM
You would be insane and I rather hoped we would be stealing (sharing) the edge of the touring car track like at the regional?

09-01-2008, 05:10 PM
I think their was talk off of us stealing the edge of the bourrrrriiiinnnnn car track. :)

Our team may have some cool looking stickers to go on the bottom of the chassis's of the cars to fit around the number. All in white of course. To make them stand out more. Then after a while of racing it may start to see some ware on it to make it look even better. I cant wait.:D

So, just to clarify: the on-road borers run at the same time as off-road, but on a different track and therefore have absolutely no contact with off-road?
What is the minimum number of teams required to run the meeting? (surely 2 teams cannot be enough - can't we just lock the doors to anyone who's sad enough to own tyre warmers;) )

Cockerill
10-01-2008, 01:08 AM
The way it used to work was essentially two events at the same time. The touring track ran one and the other was on the off road track. So the the times and cars between the two are completely seperate.

Ye, the difference in quality between the 'budget' class 10.5 motors and the modified ones (like 5.5 ect) is huge, there not well built and are stupidly sensitive to gearing.

well i think there well built, a bloke has sat down and designed these, what gearing were you on, was it getting to hot ?

josh_smaxx
10-01-2008, 04:06 PM
Have you seen the cheap ones? if it was rebuildable then i wouldnt have had to send it back as its just a solid can, the motors work, dont get me wrong and there quick as far as 10.5 BL motors go but there just not up to the spec nosram/LRP are normally up to, they make them like this as to reduce the cost but because the 10.5 superstock class is probably going to be the biggest TC class this year the motors dont match up to the build quality and reliability of the more expensive motors. I was running a FDR of 6.9 and yes it got hot but i was lead to believe they can take a decent range of gearing, seems most can except these ones.

Anyway, this is running slightly off track, i am entering offroad anyway :D
