Petit 2012 14/15 Jan
 
Anybody know any more details on this event, id love to attend but not sure if its happening as it was supposed to be at Moto arena?

James 04-09-2011 09:47 AM

Apparantley if it can't be held at Moto-Arena it will be held somewhere local to that site...?

The Worksop Players is on the week after, going to be a busy fortnight!

Be nice to know where before committing. Petit will be good tho, I'm sure

Dudders 04-09-2011 10:09 AM

I'm booked and paid :thumbsup:

Be a good craic where ever it will be :thumbsup:

Long as I dont have to travel into Walesestershire!

Jamie.T 04-09-2011 10:15 AM

How are you booked in and paid, i didnt even think entries were open yet, or at least theres nothing on the website?

It would also be the best race yet if it was in Wales. lol

Dudders 04-09-2011 10:16 AM

Invertational only until end of September, then open for general bookings from October 1st :thumbsup:

Any idea where "plan B" will be in regards to track location?

mikeyscott 04-09-2011 11:19 AM

I'm in along with some other TORCH people. We've done it before hence the early booking. Dudders is just special ;)

Dudders you are going to have to get a 4wd??

i think we need to have details of a confirmed venue for this race sooner rather than later. so far its at a place that simply doesn't exist anymore!

unconfirmed venue
expensive entry fee
have to buy tyres i dont want & would never normally use :thumbdown:

pretty close to binning this off now :eh?:

Belsten 08-09-2011 07:09 AM

I wont be going :(

carlin 08-09-2011 07:38 AM

Can't believe we got to run DBoots :thumbdown:

It's one tire I didn't want to go out buying tbh

Jamie.T 08-09-2011 11:09 AM

Well, i had an invation from Nicolas this morning of which i am very gratefull. But i agree with the comments above.

What puts me off is the unconfirmed venue and the control tyre. I tried Dboots last year indoors and they were simply rubbish, cant see me paying silly money for an entry to an unconfirmed venue to race with rubbish tyres.

Think there will be a few more hoping for an entry at the Players instead this year. (or technically next year)

spenner 08-09-2011 11:31 AM

FYI
 
For everyone's information,

As some will know the invitations have gone out this week for the Petit race.
As it stands the meeting will be held at Moto Arena, if this is not possible by the time of the meeting or at least a month before then it will move to our other venue which is 10 mins away. We have kept everything in place so people booking hotels etc will have no need to change. The meeting will be held around Silverstone/Northampton area so i advise you book hotels around these areas.

With regard to the Dboots tyres this is nothing to do with us, but i believe they are supporting the event.

The other venue is just off J15 on the M1.

Sadly there is nothing more we can do at this moment, but we will deliver an awesome Petit Race.

By having a control tyre at least the racing is equal for everyone :thumbsup:

Ive used dBoots indoors many times, and found them to be really good.

+1 They start off really grippy but then keep on giving grip till you are nearly through the carcass. I prefered them over minipins last year on carpet.

The question is are you going to race and if you get in what 4wd are you doing. Truck is fun as well, and remember one shirt only :p:p:p
