Sunday 28th
 

On Sunday 28th is it going to be a normal race day?and is booking in required?

28th is our Xmas meeting.
We hope to run heats for vintage and have a caravan race :thumbsup:
We should have the room upstairs for pitting allowing maybe a touch larger track.
Pre Booking is not required, just turn up on the day :)

There's more or a friendly fun day at the Xmas meeting, aswell as normal race there is also Caravan racing which is good fun n everyone welcome to take prt in if u can come up with something http://youtu.be/LoHFmqHmB0Y if u ain't seen it before ;) and there's also a vintage class for any old skool 10th scale! Userly pitting is in the little hall upstairs and we have the track full size of gym then! You can book in on the day, and have some fun woop woop

Which venue is this meeting taking place at? Never raced at your club it seems you have a couple of venues? Would be interested in attending if there is enough practice to make it worth the trip

This is been held at whitecliffe mount sports centre, the batley buggy club indoor venue, the address is whitecliffe mount sports centre Turnsteads Avenue, Cleckheaton, West Yorkshire BD19 3AQ.... The track will be laid out the same day as the meeting so the only real practice will proberly be about 10mins before starting( depending on people helping to get the track laid) mixed surface of gym floor and carpet, nice balcony view of the track, always worth a trip out, track changes each week in all locations batley have ;)

This meeting actually going ahead ?

I'll be going. Looking forward to racing the Optima Mid again.

Yes...:thumbsup: .....the hall is booked and equipment has been sorted..!

Yes this meeting is on, 10am - 6pm hopfully a few will help get the track out n laid so it can start as possible! Then the normal meetings are weekly apart from when chadderton is on, maybe the pairs meeting mighten be held again? Will ask if it ain't on the list ;) was another good meeting batley do :)

are there tables n chairs or do we bring our own?

Bring ye own table and chairs and extension for Leki

Looking forward to using my table and chairs. It is about the only thing I know how to set up correctly :thumbsup:

ok pal - cheers :)

Hi, will the rostrum be next to the track on the same level, and is there space to pit on the same level as the track, as my husband uses a wheelchair and we need to know he has easy access to the rostrum before we travel over to the meeting.

Thanks

What tyres do most run around there? 2wd

Yellow Pins or Spikes. Pins are generally faster overall, but edgy on the gym floor to carpet transition so some prefer spikes. Spikes are generally easier to drive.

Hi Anna, they usually pit upstairs in a separate room and use the balcony on the same level as a rostrum.

I'm sure someone from the club will confirm?

I guess as long as Mark can get upstairs he just needs his car putting on the track at the start and finish of heats?

I think there is a lift in the building.

Yes...the first floor balcony is used as the rostrum and, for this event, the pit area is on the same floor and pretty well adjacent so no problem there. The only problem could be seeing the track.! The balcony wall is solid and I guess, a metre high, so, for someone sitting down, they might not be able to see over the wall... A possible alternative would be to pit on the ground floor, there is a separate area adjacent to the track, and drive from trackside in the wheelchair.

Afternoon guys :)

Just a quick one to say I'll be in attendance with the shop, will have some new products on the table and a few special offers!

I won't bring in the full stock of tyres, but if any of you guys want me to bring any DBoots for the January Chadderton round so you can get them glued up ready for the morning, drop me a line before Saturday the 27th
