CML Raceway Winter Series Feb 24th

[Trish]

Hi guys,

CML Raceway is holding its second meeting of the year on sunday the 24th Febuary :thumbsup:

It will be £5 for non members and £3 for members.
Memberships at £10 will be availible from from tuesday.
PM me for details.

I have been taking time off work to get the track to a better condition and pictures will follow,more cool features will be included!!!

I would like a good turn out as I am running the meeting. Sadly John Cockill cannot make it. We will as usual have the bbk software for timming which doesnot support the PT's.

Hot Food will be availible if numbers are over 20 as Mrs Martin does put alot of effort in.

Cheers Trish.

Hi everyone,

So far the changes for sundays track will be:

The grass area that was run last meeting is in the procces of being paved with bricks and slabs. This is not going to be entierely flat so will add a good mixture of surface to the track.

The big timber jump has been taken apart and re boarded as a different shape (Big thanks to Mick)

Track markings all re-painted so will all be looking smart.:D

Will there be a meeting in March, as I would like to come when it is a bit lighter, and slightly warmer?

Also, what tyres are good apart from Proline's as I am finding it hard to get hold of any at the moment!

Cheers
Mark

Hi,
We are not sure on the date for the meeting in march or if there is going to be one. Lee is currently away but i will find out as soon as possible.

The main tyres that most people run are Ballsitic Buggy Pinks, they work in both the wet and dry and a great all round tyre.

Step pins on the rear of 2wd with Proline ribs seem to work ok in the wet/damp but i would adivse to go with the BB Pinks.

Shumacher Yellows can be run in the really dry and seem to work well.

I think march will prove to be a hard one for a meeting as I am away for all the weekends and so is lee. I will be away the idea weekend of the bank holiday at the neo buggy.

Thanks Trish

These are pics of half way. we are going to get more slabs and try and to finish it on saturday.

The jump will be good as its a nice slow rithmytic jump which will be satisfying for all drivers.

[Trish]

Thanks for everyone coming on sunday. Thanks to Ryan Rich mick and tony for all your help. The meeting went very well with great weather to accompany it.
I have a few pics that I thought I would upload.



Thanks Trish

Shame I couldn't make the meeting, but from the photos that new jump section looks monster; more like a mountain than a jump. :thumbsup:

What did it jump like?

[JCJC]

Jump was/is a temp thing Stu, converted from another jump, but only hardboard topped, it wont last if there is any persistant rain, I think when I converted it I must have turned it round and made the off ramp the front !!, it was working well on Saturday pm, we were unable to attend on Sunday - spect it got a soaking early evening, may allow the board to relax into a shape:cry:.

Second kicker jump is getting a bit tired;), its lasted well and is everybodys favourite. Track generaly looking good, tidy and all edging repaired and painted.

[KRob]

First time at CML for a while - and really enjoyed it. Thank you.
Track was in really good nick, and the meeting ran flawlessly ;-)

Shame we didn't get any video of Tony's D4 strength tests...

[ryan]

Trish - Should of painted the jumps red, would of been alot better :p
Got any pics of the slab section after sat?

Ryan

[Trish]

I will put some more pics wen we get a nice day.
As for the jump it was great as you didnt ramp it ,it was hangtime and then you would pin it off. Everyone loved it.
