We're using bumpups at the proline meeting on the dirt track in may so will see how it goes on that, must admit it was a lot better than I thought it would be, really enjoyed them!

Just out of interest how long was there between the bump up finals and how many people had thermal issues?

I can cook dinner on my 4wd's motor after a normal run so was wondering how it all worked out.

hi roger
My boy managed to bump up two finals in 2wd on saturday with about 8 mins between runs approx

probably not fair to compare agains 4wd but we had no problems i didnt see any others in 2wd

i think if weather had not played such a big part and more racers had attended then the breaks would have been longer but as it was it was a great format really enjoyable

again thats probably cos my boy had poor qualifying but managed to claw way back, an oppurtunity not normally available

big thumbs up to Muzzy and crew for putting on a great day out (didnt do 4wd previous engagement )

There were peltier heat sinks being used by some to get cool in time. Whereas some resorted to taking the whole car outside for as long as possible.

Certainly didn't see anyone thermal

I had no heat problems bumping up in 4wd and I lent my car for some one else to use after I'd been knocked out and there was still no heat issues.

I would just like to add that we had an amazing weekend down at Worksop for the players bump up event and just wanted to thank muzzy and the crew who organised it.
