Summer Series Dates For Ballymena
 

The NIMCC have announced their dates for the Summer series. The electric buggy class will run alongside their 8th scale nitro cars. The track for those that don't know is an all astro affair with a good mix of jumps thrown in. A lot of work has been done over the winter to get the track in great shape for this up-coming series. It is situated just behind the Ecos Centre in Ballymena, litteraly 2mins off the motorway. Please see below for the list of dates.....

12th May round1
9th June (RCCAOI)
16/17TH June (BRCA)
30th Jun round2
21st Jul round3
4th Aug round4
25th Aug round5
8th Sept round6


Please come along and enjoy some great racing at this fantastic track. The RCCAOI are holding a National round at the track on the 9th June this year as well as the second BRCA Regional on the 17th June, so this series will be an excellent oppertunity to get some practice in before hand. I was thinking we could maybe make it your best 4 from the 6 rounds. We can discuss things more with the guys from the NIMCC.:thumbsup:

Don't forget they're also hosting the 2nd BRCA regional.

Now updated Colin, thanks.:blush:

shit....unfortunately they are all Saturdays and I work 99.9% of them..

Hey Mark, what happened to "all I think about is cars and set ups...nothing else matters"...whats this work business about!!! ha ha ha:lol:

never worry mate , we have done something for 10th at badmcc with 9 jumps a 23 m straight and even a seperate rostrum !!! arround 17-20sec laptime And its on sundays :wub:drool:

Sounds good, post the dates up on here, gather a bit of interest.:thumbsup:

All the dates have been added to the calendar at rcracingni so you can see the mad amount of racing that is going on over the summer in NI!!

Really looking forward to this!!!

hey rayzerp...unfortunately my Saturdays overtime rates pay for my rc adventures lol...I'll get over at some stage to get a rough setup before the national..

I've heard great reports on this from Mr.Rennick...sounds great...can't wait...have to get a rear motor buggy again for that...another excuse to order a new b4.1 worlds car...mmmmm yummy
my 44.1 will be unbelievable I'll bet...

Who's planning on doing the first round on the 28th of April? I'm going but would prefer a few more. Would be great if at least 6 or 8 of us southerners could make the trip up and support the series. The facility is well worth the drive and even better if we get some car pooling going on!

I might head up, Nothing else on that weekend for me.

Good stuff! Any more? I know Will, Derek and Mick B will be in Austria that weekend.

OOOHHH YYEAAAHHH!!!! :thumbsup::thumbsup::thumbsup:

Well, since I'm not going to Austria:thumbdown: I might try & make it to Ballymena :D

I'll know closer to the date if I'm available on Sat 28th.


Kevin

pencil me in i will know if am working in a few days

I hope to get there.
Is there clubman? or is it all modified?

Thinking about heading up too......have the same question about clubman/modified.
What about tyre choice....same as Naul as it is astro?

I'm sure we will be able to run whatever classes we have numbers for. As for tyres schuey yellow when dry BB greens when damp and good luck if it's really wet!
Also track is big so mod doesn't feel as quick as indoors.
