I sent an email to Tim saying I was happy to do both 10th classes to make up numbers, but I'll happily just do 4WD to have enough people to Marshall the 2WD drive.

It will be a shame if we have to cancel the 'electric' part ofo the regional.

Ian

could you not just help each other out? maybe a bit of leccy marshal nitro and vice versa? that would be a quick fix.

That sounds good Andy but I don't think we can as the rule is 1/10 Marshall 1/10 and the same for the 1/8

If you ask me (no doubt you wouldnt have but here it is anyway)...silly bloody rules!! as silly as no drivers listing,who the hell is going to read a drivers listing & then make it there aim to burgle your house?? and do the majority of drivers live alone anyway??
anyway back to it,im happy to marshall an electric heat if need be no worries & im sure my lad would be too.

The easy way to sort this is to alternate the heats so it would be 2wd, 1/8, 4wd, 1/8, etc, but ALL the electric drivers need to agree to marshalling the 1/8

I've never marshalled an 1/8 before, but I'm willing to give it a go

Are the 1/8 heats 5min Ian? if so im happy to marshall Nitro, just remember some gloves that's all.

Due to the low attendance i think we all need to muck in and help each others classes out, otherwise we may not race at all.

Heats are 5, finals are 20, gloves are the best idea I will try and get some for the people that don't have any, but I really need all the electric racers to agree to do to

How are the electric numbers split in 4wd & 2wd Ian ?

If the 1/8 is 5 minute heats with 20 min finals, ill help marshal 1/8 if you boys are going to help us out

Ive never marshalled nitro's either so might be a good idea to do a quick brief to us electric peeps of what we should or shouldnt do with them when marshalling nitro's before we start the day ?

I can bring my own gloves though

Post So sorry to miss your meeting.

Ian, Pet, Tim and Paul.

Myself and the rest of the guys from ledbury who have been racing with you guys threw the winter are so sorry we're not able to make it to your track for your round of the WRCA.
We have a electric 1/10 regional being held at ledbury on the 12th and after the last meeting i guarranted i would turn up to help out on the day.
I know most of the other guys are disappionted with the date clash as we were lead to believe there would be no clashes between the wrca dates and ledburys date for this specific reason.

Again guys im sorry Ollie and i will miss out.

Have a great day, help each other out, make it work and HAVE A BLAST.

Jamie.

And heat, if you grab the cars side on, hot exhaust.
Just grab the cars front and rear guys you'll be fine. Nice to see it all coming together.
And the red car is not a F1 Ferrari, it needs all the help it can get if you fancy running for it.
