This is a huuuuge indoor venue people and so close to Christmas it's bound to be horrible and cold outside so get booking in

The Track is going to be designed by the one and only Lee "Pidge" Martin so you can expect good things for this one (no pressure Lee)

Andy, posting a link is fine mate - http://www.newburyrcclub.co.uk/mkgp.htm

Hope to see a few there - we don't get many proper Off Road indoor races so this should be good!

early track designs are going well.......................

this could be one of the best indoor venues seen for a long time!!!

combo of slippy floor and carpet with hand made wooden kickers...table tops. doubles and even a cross over!!!!!

muahahah

[c0sie]

From a micro racing point of view..that track sounds ace!!!

Lee, just a quickie, are you gonna be running a shortened straight for us wee micro racers?

If you are bored on Sunday you could always pop along to Hereford and watch Craig, Keith, Jimmy and John racing their small cars with the big boys

[GRIFF55]

Is there going to be a control tyre for the offroad class? On the site it says 3 min in each class, is this possible??
Cheers

[Lee Martin]

hmmm the micros...had not thought of that.............

ill look into it lol

[c0sie]

Cheers Lee

[Lee Martin]

Hi Andy

He means as in 3 Entries minimum to run each class so if they only get 2 micro stock it won't run for instance :-)

It will be normal 5 Minute runs with qualifying and finals.

I believe Yellow Minipins will be the tyre but Andy Bell (Ginger Fixit) will confirm shortly.

[GRIFF55]

Cheers Nick, i'll try and make it

[c0sie]

Lee,

Gimme a shout on the day..if you race steer wheel you can lay the smack down with my Blaze if you like fella

[ginger fixit]

hi guys


at this stage i plan to run 3 rounds qualy round by round best 2 and 3finals should help to build a bit of tention (all depends on entry numbers and time )

you will gain points for tq and qualy position and from each final should make it an excelent meeting


tyres thats up to you i think being indoors tyres is going to be the one thing you can change to make a huge difference

we have a shop on site so tyre will be avalible all day

thanks any qs just ask thanks

p.s entires will be published on newbury club forum there will be a link from the info page For the gp

[dan_kitty]

will try and do this meeting just need to check dates.

so on the entry form where you mark ability, is 1 best, or 10 best?

I assume you cant run 2 classes on the same day?

ta
dan

[ginger fixit]

hi dan

10 is best 1 is pull start class if you get my meaning


and you can book in for 2 classes if you like you may have to get your marshalling covered but thats up to you

thanks hope that helps Andy bell

[Lee Martin]

pics from the hall

[GRIFF55]

Gooo Onn, you know you want to. Plenty of room for those track ideas in that hall Lee!!

[dan_kitty]

ace, good bit of space there, just hope im allowed to come now!

[Nick Goodall]

Guys it's going to be awesome - Lee and I will be drawing up the track this week on the PC so will upload to get you all interested.

There's plenty of time left but the sooner you book in the better!

The Viewing gallery makes a perfect height rostrum with LOADS of room for practising (Room for at least 20 people practising) imagine the carnage ;-) Depends if it's practise in heat order or just free practise but either way it will work great as a rostrum.

Looking forward to it!
