Default Roger Wood memorial Meeting 2017

Booking in is now open for the annual Roger Wood memorial meeting, which is to be held at Bury Metro Radio Car Club on Sunday 24th September 2017.

This year we have decided to mix it up a little and try something new!! This year the event has been supported by CML / Proline, the event will be controlled tyres for 2wd & 4wd classes only (Vintage and Trucks will be any tyre)

So the booking in fee of £20 per class for 2wd or 4wd will include a set of the following:-

2wd / 4wd Rears - Pin Point 2.2" Z3 (Medium Carpet) Off-Road Carpet Buggy Rear Tires

2wd Front - Wedge Squared 2.2" 2WD Z3 (Medium Carpet) Off-Road Carpet Buggy Front Tires

4wd Front - Pin Point 2.2" 4WD Z3 (Medium Carpet) Off-Road Carpet Buggy Front Tires.

These tyres have been tested for a good few months now and we have found them to be very long wearing and good in all conditions, they will easily last a full days racing, they even last a few meetings!! Drivers are to supply their own wheels and inserts, normal Schumacher medium foams are recommended.

Booking in / Fees

Booking in is only through RC Sign Up, payment MUST be made upfront via paypal.

Click this link to find the event RC Sign Up

You will have to sign up with RC Sign Up and create a profile and add your car.

2wd or 4wd - £20 per class per driver (includes a full set of Proline tyres RRP £15.49)

Vintage or Trucks = £12 per class per driver

132 drivers max, 66 2wd, 44 4wd, 11 Vintage, 11 Trucks

All profit from the event goes to a chosen charity of choice by the committee members, usually a dogs charity as that’s what Roger always wanted.

Prizes

1st Place in each final will get either a prize or a trophy. Instead of a big raffle this year we have decided to just have one big prize which will most likely be a kit from CML.

I think you'll have to create an account. What are the Prolines like in differing weather conditions do they work in both wet and dry?

Sorry that was a broad question not necessarily just aimed at yourself.

Stu Wood run them when it was wet a couple of weeks back Neil, I know Stu would probably be ok regardless of tyres anyway. Also Rob Mills has been running them for ages so Rob's probably best bet to answer how good they are in the wet mate.

Neil,

Testing has shown that they run well in both wet and dry conditions. Rob Mills has been using them for some time and been raving about them to be fair to Rob, nobody really believed him. 😂😂

Stu Wood finally tested them this year and was amazed at how good they were on our track and ever since we have started to ramp up testing, to the point where we have now asked Proline to sponsor this meeting.

Bring your wheels and inserts ready for gluing on the day.

Default Vintage class

Are there any rules regards the vintage class?, Mike Bradbury did think that there maybe a motor limit of 13.5t if entrants were to run brushless motors and i presume a limit for brushed motors also.
