Default No racing at Oldham today, outdoor track at Goshen, instead

There's no power on at the Oldham venue so we're going to run outdoor at Goshen as the weather looks good.

Best outdoor meeting in ages - in January! Weather was just right, track was amazing, lots of drivers and some close racing - loved it!

Still not seen Gav's RB6 actually going though

Car is sorted now. Well when I get a couple of new spur gears.... Ste no chance. Still wouldn't have a schumacher unless it was free like stu ha. My car is fine it's the idiot that built it putting the motor in with the wrong holes and also not making sure the screws were tight enough. Just teething problems that's all

To be fair Gav it did look to be going really well before you had the problem with the spur gear. Sack the pitman

Teething problems is right - you stripped every one off the spur!

See - the RB6 jokes just run and run. Unlike the RB6.......

Thanks to roger, Paul and woody for taking time out to talk to me today, hopefully will get my losing xx back on the road soon... had to order a front arm from America! Any advice on what charger to buy would be gratefully received, in fact all new electrics are needed!

......the green RB6 that will be marooned on the pit bench!!

Sorry Gav, was just too hard to resist!! Ha!

It was a great meeting yesterday after the frustrations of the morning, a bit of a squeeze to get finished before dark but we just about managed it. Indifferent day on a personal note for me with me new Sv2, the handling of the car out the box is incouraging but the driveshaft did feel the need to self district during round 3 after no obvious impact! Glitchy electrical issues blighted my day too, will hopefully have it sorted for next time.


Chris
