A few thoughts from todays meeting...
Great meeting today. Track was excellent both in terms of layout and grip (for a 2wd that is) and the meeting ran really smoothly.
So smoothly in fact it got me thinking how to make it even better. Race control is easy once we get going but booking in is a bit of a pain. Then it occurred to me that its easy enough to pre-book. If club members let me know on here by the night before I could have them pre-entered. On the day if whoever handles the cash simply ticks them off the pre-booked list then they pay and I remove anyone who didn't turn up. This should speed up booking in - faster booking in = more racing! Also we do have some issues with people going home partway through a meeting. If you need to do this thats fine but race control needs to know. I understand that one person left today and tried to tell me but I was racing. Therefore I propose that I'll stick a pen to the board where the heat listing is. If you need to leave, cross yourself off the listing. I'll try to keep an eye on it and remove as needed.

Good day, really good track!! One bad point, there should have been a drivers briefing with all the new young drivers and others etc. Some really poor marshalling, and people not coming out on time. Could easily have had 5 rounds today if we hadnt been waiting around.

Good flowing track today that encouraged clean racing
Good work rob Wel run on the race controll and so still got to race to Thanks to the volunteer marshalls in our heat to The kids are keen but maybe a bit unfair to have them all Marshall one heat Maybe spread em over two heats or have there parents help and train them But a top day all round in generall looking forward to the outdoor season

Hi guys, just like to say a big thankyou for making me welcome and really enjoyed it and looking forward to the club getting bigger and bigger. Also having the vintage out and running for the 1st time in over 10 years was fun too even if it was only for 1 and half race . But think the time has come to step up and think its going to be a RB6 !!

Like a Vega is going to make you any quicker!
Starting to think I might need a faster motor myself. Still looking at the best way round the 'Fun' class marshalling issues. Parents aren't always the best option as some are less effective than their children.

Today's racing
Really good days racing today. Nice track layout so a big thanks to Rob, Neil, thanks to Si for running race control and thanks to those who stayed behind at the end to help put the track away. It was good to see a few new drivers and some retired drivers returning. Si, as mentioned in another post the drivers breifing wasn't held mainly because Darren wasn't thier at the start so if you want if I am thier I will do the drivers breifing. And you mentioned about drivers leaving and not informing race control or the race controler is racing. How about notifing another commity member such as my self, darren, rob, neil and then the message could be passed on afterwards. just a thought.

Well one thing Si, at least you know if you fall on hard times you could weigh your 210 in for scrap, with all those alu bits and that cast iron servo that came direct from the steam age, it has to be worth a fortune to a scrap dealer!

The 6.5 that's in it is too much. What made you want to start again then?
