Default Kidderminster National - May 12th + 13th 2007.

There's one week to go before round 2 of the national championship series, at Kidderminster Model Car Club, May 12th and 13th 2007.
Is everyone prepared? I think the tyre debate has calmed down now, so what else to discuss? Who's looking hot on the track (I'm thinking Yardy is heading for a good result, among other top competitors of course)?
Once again lets hope the weather is kind to us like it was at Tivvy, made a nice change not to be freezing our socks off.
Is everyone sorted out for travel plans? And are many people still awaiting confirmation of race entry?

Thanks for that Carl. I usually look out for the travelodge deals, 15 or 26 pounds per night, although they do have to be booked quite far in advance to get the best deals, and don't include breakfast, although many places don't start serving breakfast until after we have to set off to the track.

Me and Greenwood are booked into the Hartlebury Travellodge, its where we stayed last year. But if forecast is wrong and weather appears to be dry, we are both tempted to camp.

Im ready for Kidderminster now, have both cars setup rather well for Bury which should be a good setup to start at Kiddy on, and I have plenty of Schumacher Yellows if dry.... I won't buy BB tires til required, I hate it when I gamble and get it wrong. I have enough 1 run BB (old compound) green spikes to start the day on anyway.

Chris
