Dont forget, the more the merrier!!!!

[emzy]

I'd come... but I'm err... up here. AND I'm going out for my birthday on Sat... yay!

[chrispattinson]

Yep, sorry Jimmy, Im with Emz on this one, I would love to help, but .... being up here........ I cant do anything but wait until Sunday morning, cant wait. I wonder if there'll be any other CAT 2000s involved in 4WD????? Any chance of a pic of the track on Saturday night posted anywhere, will it be a suprise???

[jimmy]

Sure mate, I will try get a pic if i remember, I got one of the supercup track the night before but forgot to put it up ! hehe..

cat2000 ! Think you might be alone there mate, with all these fancy bling new 4wd cars kicking about.... just wait tho, someday it will get re-released and everyone will want one again.

[jimmy]

Here are a couple of photos of the track, when i went up to the balcony the left side wasnt done, only a few members turned up to help so we were there late.

track is running clockwise.

some cool mat sections to drive over, no horrible mat corners which are unraceable !! ace..

[Will Olpin]

Any pics from the racing Jimmy?

[Northy]

Track looked good, pity I couldn't make it

Anybody miss me?

[jimmy]

you werent there ?

lol!

nah mate, I thought it was a good track to be honest.. the jumps were all OK adn the mat sections were quite good.. no mat corners which is always a bonus.. a lot more flowing than the supercup track..

I got sod all photos of anything but a few cars, must have been the winner in me wanting to stay in the top 10 in 2wd. probably down to 30th by now.

Julie had Flu, and I didn't feel too great either. Maybe just natural when the alarm clock goes off at 5.30!

yeah, came to watch the finals after a second winter hibernating. Shocked to see that ZX5's seem to have been breeding like rabbits over the winter.

Have to say too that Chris Long's X5 looked amazing in the final. One of the quickest lapping cars i've seen indoors.

[jimmy]

Bah! dropped from 8th to 13th in that last round GRRR..

Yea the X5 does look really good on the track, I'll be reviewing one real soon so im looking forward to that.

Thank you Andy
I think that track was suited very well to my driving and my car. As it had no crazy matt corners, and those rippled matts my X5 seems to like to leap over very cleanly and fast - and there was a lot of them!

No more indoors now. Bring on the summer! :bom:
