This will cater for the three most popular 1:10 off-road classes of 2WD and 4WD buggies, and 2WD Short Course Trucks. Although the organisers aim to attract top drivers from the UK and Europe, it is hoped that the TLR Super Cup, in association with Spektrum and Electrix RC will appeal to local drivers as well. The format sees a change to the norm with all three classes running on both days of the weekend. Saturday will see two practices and three qualifiers, with a short practice, two qualifiers and multi-leg finals on the Sunday. Qualifying will use the FTD format and there will be three legs for the A finals in 2WD, 4WD and Short Course Trucks with two legs for all the other finals. Awards will be presented to the winners of 2WD, 4WD and SCT, the top three in the U14 and U19 classes as well as in the concourse competition. Entry fees are £15 per class with a limit of 160 in total, split 70 in 2WD, 70 in 4WD and 20 in SCT. Tyres are open, but in SCT drivers will be limited to standard SCT wheels and tyres (no 1:8 tyres). Booking in will be made through the Central Booking system (www.centralbooking.org) and every racer will receive a complimentary entry pack when they book in. The club hopes to have a complimentary buffet on the Saturday evening for the drivers although the bar will be open from midday all weekend. Camping is available on Friday and Saturday nights for £5 per pitch per night and this should really help to make the event fun and family orientated. The club hopes to have more details confirmed and an entry list will be available at centralbooking.org soon so keep an eye on the Racer, EPR and other popular websites for more information as its announced.

Practice available Friday afternoon
The entries are coming in slowly but surely. If anyone has any questions or requires any information at all, please just contact myself or Steve Brooke (Brookie) on the forum here.
The club and sponsors are trying our best to make this a fun and competitive race meeting for all abilities. We have received interest from drivers in Europe and a few have already booked in. We felt that due to the distance some will travel, that we should make the track available for practice on Friday afternoon from 2pm. This will give the opportunity to get a flavour for the venue, especially those that have never been to EPR before. To level the playing field, after practice (7pm but TBC) the club will relay a new layout for the weekend of racing. As I said before, if EPR can help in anyway in getting you to come down for a fun weekend of racing, please do not hesitate to contact us. |

Hi,
I thinking of coming down to this meeting, but I was wondering if any locals know of any good cheap hotels around the area, as the premier ones are very expensive. Many thanks |

Hi Gareth
Here is the link to the local borough's accomodation page on their website. http://www.infobromley.org/BromleyCo.../PlacesToStay/ All of teh places listed are within 15 mins of the track. If you are looking for Bed and Breakfasts or Guest Houses, search for thiem within West Wickham and Beckenham as these are the two areas either side of Eden Park. HTH |

Here's hoping you can make it Griff, all are welcome, local, National or International.
Get those entries in here: http://www.centralbooking.org/cbs/index.php Mr. Stafford is now booked in and we are aware of other 'names' that are due to attend! There's a considerable amount of excellent work being undertaken in the background by the EPR team, our supporters and our suppliers to make this the very best event we possibly can! |
