Stuart H,

Can we pitch pitting tents on the grass track? I know we used to do this but wanted to check. I dont think we can get tent pegs in on the carpark area?

If your want to put your tents on the grass then can you keep them as close to the barriers and car park as possible (ie. off the main track itself)

Cheers

Default slight timetable adjustment

Hi Guys,

Been having a quick think about timings for tomorrow. We have 8 heats, and so to guard against any problems or hold ups during the day, we want to get things underway, so:

Booking in: Open at 8am
Practice, 1 round of 5 mins, in heat order: starts at 8:30am
Drivers briefing: 9:30ish (dependant on practice over run)
Qualifying underway by 10am.

Look forward to seeing you all tomorrow.

Tom

I think I'll remain tight-lipped about the track today, really didn't enjoy it!!

Still, had a fun day playing football and it was good to see everyone.

Roll on Kiddy in 2 weeks!

I thought today went very well for the most part.

Good turnout, good weather and interesting track layout, just a shame that some of the marshalling was very sub par.
Looking forward to Ledbury next month.

Thanks Cov for a well run day.. Track was tough and my first run on astro proved interesting, made quite a few changes to the car, Thanks to Mossy for the tips..

Not sure how many times I manged to cartwheel off the jump on the straight into the fence but finished in one piece and came from 5th to 2nd in my final adding an extra lap along the way.

Some of the marshalling was a bit dodge/slow but overall an enjoyable days racing..

Thanks also to the Schuey guys for letting me join in the footie
