Default 4wd Regional at Batley - 17th August 2014

Please note that the gates will open at 7.45 am so you will be able to have a lie in!

Booking in will take place as soon as set-up is ready. Practice will be on at 8.30 am and drivers' briefing at 9.30 am

Heats are planned as follows:

Round 1 - 9.45 am
Round 2 - 10.45 am
Round 3 - 11.45 am
Break for lunch
Round 4 - 1.15 am
Finals - 2.30 pm

Timings may vary depending on weather conditions and we may not have a break if the weather looks to be deteriorating. Let's hope Sunday is favourable for us.

Look forward to seeing you all - let's having a good day's racing!!

I have to agree the track does seem in a sorry state
It would be nice to see it made great again..

Meeting was run OK.. Unfortunate for the last heat evryround having rain

I was a bit dissapointed to see a marshall texting/messing around there phone while a race was on. And this was for the majority of the final

I thought the meeting ran really well, as they always do at Bately :-)

Can't help glitches in the computer from happening every now and again.

As for the rain this really only affected round 3 of our heat numpty (not all our rounds), so can't complain too much given how the forecast looked the night before.

Agree people shouldn't be texting whilst marshalling, tut tut! haha.

All fun and games.

Huge well done to Jack Hirst, awesome skills at only 11 years old. Certainly one to watch.

Craig.

Looks like windows 8 on the new regional laptop decided that in the middle of the meeting was a good time to apply new updates, which caused the shutdown just before top heat.

I totally enjoyed racing on the track and yes my buggy hit a few obstructions that shouldnt have been there (and probably everyone that should), but after a few laps i got used to it and it was great.

Thanks batley for a good day.
