Do I get the feeling there is a little bad feeling towards the TC class?

Hopefully not - I know there was a bit of rule breaking last series but the class rules (for every class, not just TC) will be re-asserted from tonight.

That's really good news. So what happens tonight if someone turns up with foams and a 0.01 turn motor? They'll be allowed to race but not score points?

They will be flogged and hung from the basketball net for all to see a warning. Cruel,i know but it is in the new brca handbook and if w are sticking to the rules, that is what its required.

You're going a bit soft there Chris!

On a serious note we can't scruntineer every car but if somebody is not conforming to the class rules then they will be dealt with individually, depending on whats wrong with their car. Wrong tyres? put the right ones on or see if you can borrow a set. Too fast a motor? put a slower one in or turn your throttle down.

Turn you throttle down? What so they can turn it up when your not looking?, that almost invites cheating ..

Ill bring a spare 7.5

So no heads on stakes? I'm so disappointed, I'd been sharpening my axe all through the holidays... No need for that fetching black hood either

I'm hoisting the V8 out of the Camaro, I am sure I can shoehorn it into the Mardave and start it somehow!

I'll be watching you tonight Scott!

I might be naive in say this but people tend not to cheat, and that they simply don't conform because they weren't aware of the rules for their class or because "he ran foams last week"

You do get the occasional idiot turn up who drives around whilst the track is being set up or does donuts on the track when a race is running, but they will be dealt with differently.

No, but its OK. I'll just turn my throttle down I don't think anyone will survive anyway, the valve steam seals seal as well as doughnuts. We'll all die somewhere around minute 4 of heat 1.
