Apologies to all and sundry at FORCC as I'd fully intended to start a thread for Sunday, but just haven't been near a PC to do so!


The first round of the 2009/10 FORCC Winter Series is upon us. Once again we're blessed with the prospect of some superb racing in the 3 classes. The format of the last Winter Series remains unchanged with 4 rounds of heats against the clock, with 3 legged finals available to all.

The only difference this year is that the meeting will be run on a timer to insure we finish on time and to eliminate delays. Once the meeting starts each race will run at a specified time and will not be held up. Relief marshalling will be in operation, so if you end up marshalling and not being replaced please inform us so that the person who didn't marshal can be hung, drawn and quartered

It's intended that heat 1 will go at 9.45am, but ideally we'd like everyone there at the latest 8.45am so booking in can be closed and the heats readied. The earlier the better really and it means more practice time.

We have the promise of a few visitors as well over the series, but from a first headcount on Wednesday we'll have at least 35 drivers for Round 1.

The only remaining question is what has Crewie got up his sleeve for track designs? We all know what he's capable of - are there a few surprises in store for the unwary...........???

See you all Sunday

Only put it back where it started. The base had moved which had lowered the kicker too much. Doesn't normally happen but somehow did today.

Another great meeting by the Fav Crew.

Thought the timing system worked well, with no waiting between heats.

Got through a hell of a lot of races in a fast time.
