15th fridays FUN night
 
Enjoyed running all my different buggys last night. The track was good tight and technical nice one Andy:thumbsup:Lay out of the pitting and race control worked really well.
Just one thing that I noticed and I don't know if it was just the fact I was racing buggys that I was paying a bit more attention to the racing but considering it suppose to be a FUN night there seemed to be alot of kicking off and shouting on the rostrum a bit unnecessary in my opinion especially when there is a lot off children around ..Not a good example to set for them!
Also noticed some really really bad driving by some of the top heats drivers you know who you are! I know the track was a new layout and was very tight to overtake but you should sit behind someone till you can overtake cleanly not just drive through them. I personally lost a couple of seconds a lap sitting behind slower cars in the final but at least I can say I overtook cleanly and did it in style:)So come on lads Friday nights are for a bit of fun lets not make a bad atmosphere

Cheers Martin, but I just fine tuned it - it's one of Dan Critchley's tracks.
Nice one Dan :)

Agree with your comments on Etiquette :(

I have to admit I heard some rather choice language and saw some pretty horrendous track jumping and general driving - yes we all get the red mist down, and yes we are not all great at getting past others cleanly - but I think shouting sorry if you do cock it up goes a long way. If I hit someone I apologise - its not difficult and stops half the frustration we feel when we get hit - in turn stopping half the arguements! Theres some quick drivers that are poor at overtaking, but more importantly poor at apologising if they hit you or get it wrong - and as you say - its supposed to be fun! :)
