There is a national that weekend so we can go:(

Dudders 01-05-2011 07:15 PM

Shame Nick, although not all people will be in York so hopefully we'll be able to attract some others, look forward to seeing you thrash the Vega around though.

Remember there's a national on Grass and you might need a set up trial ;)

Dudders 04-05-2011 08:30 AM

Really looking forward to Sunday already!. Will be a change to the 'rush' of racing before darkness so will be a bit more relaxing for me!. Hoping to see a good turnout!:thumbsup:

Yeah lost the flow never mind not bad considering i have only been doing it for a couple of weeks it can only get better!!!!!!
I might well come along if I don't will be there for sure soon

Dudders 04-05-2011 08:50 PM

Be good to catch up again :thumbsup:. Grass is a bit less aggressive than Astro so might suit you ;)

Deano577 04-05-2011 09:04 PM

Sorry Mate what time does it finish??

Dudders 04-05-2011 09:16 PM

That depends on how many turn up and heats etc. I would hope we could get a few heats going so I would expect the meeting to last 4 hours or so.

Should get home for the Chelski vs Man U game :woot::woot:

As its the first Sunday meeting I've really no idea how many will come, could be just you and me!

Deano577 04-05-2011 09:23 PM

Cool i will let you know

Dudders 05-05-2011 08:05 PM

No worries Deano. Looking like the timing will be in action and we'll have a place to put scores this time!!!!

SteveB 05-05-2011 09:04 PM

Neil

Just wanted to say what a great support and example to the hobby you were on Sunday at Torch last weekend. Thanks again.

What is the finish time planned for Sunday?

Thanks Steve

Dudders 05-05-2011 09:35 PM

No problem Steve, more than welcome, as our friend David says 'we're all in this together :woot: and if we can work together it's all good for the hobby and racers.

Finish time? No idea to be honest.... Depends on who turns up!

Thinking of coming along? (isn't there a Torch meet)

There is a torch meeting everyweek so a change now and again will not harm. Plus love the idea of racing on grass again, because the last time I raced on grass, must have been 15 years ago or so :lol:
Also inter club support will only bring more people to our clubs.

Thanks Steve

Dudders 06-05-2011 04:55 PM

Thanks for the emails and PM's guys re Sunday :thumbsup:

AMB system fully installed and working :woot::woot:

Dudders 07-05-2011 04:19 PM

Looks like the weather is in our favour for tomorrow. Last nights rain has done wonders for the track, the grip is up and grass is short. Can't wait :thumbsup:

Dudders 07-05-2011 11:41 PM

Just an update to let you know that the meeting is still on for tomorrow. Rain as planned looks to be leaving around 4am so should dry nicely :thumbsup:

Dudders 08-05-2011 05:07 PM

Thanks for a great day today, hope you enjoyed what you saw and experienced :thumbsup::thumbsup:
