I can't make it for a number of reasons, weathers bad and I have no RX to use.

Plus touring cars is on and Plato is on fire again so I need to watch that :D

captainlip 07-08-2011 06:07 PM

Did anybody turn up today? Seems very quiet to say it was a club day!

Si Coe 07-08-2011 06:49 PM

3 very full heats at the start of the day.

3 not so full finals at the end, but all in all decent turnout given the weather.

Not a bad days racing,think the weather put a few people of but as soon as the racing started the rain stopped,had a little more between heats but cleared up for the finals,then started again after packing track away,5 heats then finals,approx 25 racers today,only 2 trucks in the final though,some went home early and i think a couple broke.
but all in all still good fun with the track wet at times but soon dryed out.
:thumbsup:
a couple of new trucks there today and should be another 2 ready for next meeting making the trucks very popular now.

Good day, i feel like i'm turning into a wet weather specialist. Cant stop the grip roll in the dry, but a bit of rain sorts it out. Getting faster with the SCTE.

Big thanks to Chris for the overtray otherwise i wouldnt have been able to race today. Cant wait to try v2.0!

Shame there's no racing next week due to the Southport national.

loved the wet racing mate,
and a big thanks to you too for the use of your spare wheels,just looking on tinterweb for a set.
just hope my new truck will be up and ready for next meeting :thumbsup:

Si Coe 07-08-2011 07:09 PM

If people are interested I've said I'll come down next weekend and open up so we can have a practice session.

If enough people grovel, I might even ask Rog if I can borrow the timing gear and we'll have an actual meeting, but that will take some serious begging......

minke 07-08-2011 07:24 PM

I want to come down next week

tisher 07-08-2011 07:26 PM

your truck is awsome,the best truck ive ever had a go of,i recon you need to have a look at some different tyres for the dry,i noticed when i had a look at your car your tyres are a very soft compound.

I dident realise those losi trucks where based on a losi8,thats why it goes so well!!

Yes please Si :thumbsup:, could really use some practice time to get my setup sorted. Always struggling to get track time for tinkering on race days.

:thumbsup:yea I was that good when I was young:lol:old age gets to us all as you well know Matt:lol:

Si Coe 07-08-2011 07:58 PM

Johnnys truck worked fine. Johnny however, just couldn't seem to get with it today. Looking at the time, I was as quick with it has he had been, and Nick much quicker.
Mind you, when it wasn't bust his B44.1 was going well.....

And just so you all know - there is nothing wrong with my Bmax. Yes I know it sounds like a swarm of wasps, but it works fine. I've checked the gears and nothing is worn out, I think it just likes making a noise!

benjy 07-08-2011 08:00 PM

loved today, thought it would be called off due to rain or it would mess my car up , but no to both , glad i came and well chuffed with my results.

thanks, ben

Deano 07-08-2011 08:09 PM

I'd like to come down and have a look at your club. Hopefully should have received my B44 by then. Would like to bring my 2 boys with their DT02s too.
