Is the Bury Metro Indor series definately going ahead?
 

Hi Guys,

I'm just asking the question from a personal point of view, after reading comments in another thread on here. I've not heard anything or trying to start rumours here.

The reason I'm asking is that I'm currently racing rallycross, and I'm considering trying out 1/10th offroad during the winter. I think I'm getting soft in my older age and don't fancy the cold or car cleaning;)

It would be good to know before spending the cash on a car, brushless & lipo setup etc etc.

Thanks for any advice,

Rgds,

Colin

I was just about to post that YES IT IS going ahead. Had a word with Dad last night and he said ' I have nothing else to do '. Great news as I was really worried as I would of had to quite racing to run the computer and I love it inside. Going to be even better than last year as we dont have to buy anything for the track. Going to keep the GREAT PRIZES up too:thumbsup:

Thanks for that.:thumbsup:

Now for a bit more information. I've been racing the Kyosho brand of cars in rallycross, currently the MP9; because of that I'm looking at trying out 2wd, in particular the Ultima RB5.

Would this be a good option? will spares be available trackside and will other racers be running the car that could assist on the setup front if I'm all at sea?

Thanks again,

Col

awsome news stu,im sure theres enough of us to help out if needed,

Car is a good strong car and would be good for indoors (mine was) And it should be supported for spares as Jez from model torque supports the series with his shop. And Stu Wood is a RB5 expert and always extremely helpful


EXCELLENT NEWS STU.
Cant wait for the series to start.

Im up for it! Just found out ur club aint too far away. Any dates yet?

Good news Woody!! I'm hoping to attend all of the series this year!

Can we do points scoring this year and have a series as such? Not necessarily have prizes but I think it make it moer interesting and could appeal to more people?

I'd be quite happy to take the results hope and do all the points scoring and publish all the tables etc... I can post the results on oOple and e-mail them round to anyone who's interested etc..

:thumbsup: crackin idea :thumbsup:

Good call :thumbsup:

There are some dates knocking around one of the other Bury Metro threads on oOple, just not sure how to post the link :blush:

Not sure these are completely correct someone will verify hopefully

You'll to teach me how to do that Mike!!!

I think they may have changed slightly since then, where's Nick when you need him!

Thanks Mike.

Time to start hunting down some new goodies then:thumbsup:

Hope to see you all in November.

looking forward to this was great last time with the added bonus of not having to get up at silly oclock in the morning to go racing:thumbsup:

points series sounds like a good idea too :thumbsup:

roll on winter :lol:

I'll be doing these, and just these this winter for 10th racing. Its the best winter series! Glad to hear its still going :thumbsup:

Count me in to Woody :thumbsup:

Yeah, me too.

The points thing is a great idea and I will speak to Dad to see if he wants to do or give the job to Jonesy. Stil going to be prizes though as this is a big thing for me to give back to you that come along and that day.
Thanks guys for all your notes as this does help.

Heard a saying once' If you build it, they will come'.:woot:

I'll re-itterate that I'm quite happy to do it all mate, even got a spreadsheet set up the occasion (I know I'm a geek!)

If I'm able to get up there on the Saturdays to help lay the tracks etc mate I'll try my hardest but can't promise.

This is going to be awesome :thumbsup: :thumbsup:

Thanks mate. Well volunteered.

All the dates as below are now confirmed by Paul from Oldham Community Leisure...

Saturdays set up from about 2.30/3pm depending on when the gymnastics lot finish..the more people to help set up the better...

Count me in for all events aswell as long as they don't clash with Kiddy/Coventry

Really enjoyed this last year and hoping to do all this year - points sounds like a brilliant suggestion and any help just call and will see what i can do!!

i'm all over this like Robin Van Persie in a brothel, it was awesome last year

Heard a saying once' If you build it, they will come'.:woot:[/QUOTE]


I wonder who said that???:thumbsup:

Count me in for the full series, points championship even better, watch out Jonesey the Tamiya is coming for you!!!

This is gonna be awesome really looking forward to it :thumbsup:

:confused: So do you have to be a member to race? just been looking at the form :confused:

you have to be a member of the BRCA but not of the club i think

Is there a way to book in online?

Cheers man

last time we just had to email roger

Yes just send me or my Dad a pm.

Bring it on this year Damo!!

PS: Remember I'll be doing the points so you WONT beat me!!! :p :p

Will anybody? :lol::lol::cry:

You will Chris and probably Woody, I like you two!! :wub :lol: :lol: :lol:

I assume if you do that you'll need to pay the £12 on the day - not the £10 pre-payment fee?

Will there be a cap on numbers?

Sorry but if you pre book before the day it is £10 but if you just turn up with out pre booking in then its £12. Right this second there are no cap on numbers but if the first meeting is a long day then we might make the start time earlier alittle but I dont want to turn people away.

Just been talking about these dates and it might change, sorry nick. Might get rid of the April 1 and run the 1st Sunday in November. What do u think?

yes
 

sounds good to me lets get it on:thumbsup::thumbsup::thumbsup:

:thumbsup:

Woody, I like that idea as well mate. April 25th could be dangerously close to the first national (plus that's around the date our 2nd baby is due!).

If it was a National it could have a negative effect on numbers based on the posts on this thread as most drives compete in all the Nationals.

Your guys call but I would go for it! :thumbsup:
