Racing - Sunday 3rd April 2011

[mikeyscott]

Racing is on this Sunday as normal, however people need to be prompt at marshalling and help this weekend please. Julian and Dan are in charge. Marshal turn around last week was poor in some races and certainly held back the running of the meeting. If I was there this weekend it'd be cars on the table next to race control and straight out to marshal, NO pottering back to your pit area. Once you've finished your marshalling duties then collect your cars from race control (unless your designated pit monkey has already collected it...)

Steve is out for obvious reasons and I'm away at the Stotfold regional. So have fun and play nicely please!

Chassis testing time this weekend too, but I fear I may break to the one I'm testing...

Looking at Stotfold You Tube videos are it looks very very hard - I'll need more than luck!

Hope everyone has a good meeting at Torch on Sunday, see you in a couple of weeks

Hi Martin, Just a quick Q I was wondering if the club were going to try and put those small little wedge's on the track this sunday. Something similar to what we tested sunday afternoon? Maybe where we had them before or try them on the corner like we briefly tried. Mainly as not sure how many there will be sunday, and could be a perfect time to let member's try it and maybe vote in the morning where to try them? Thought it was just a idea, there tiny-I.E. you cant crash on them. So cant see anyone having any - about them. But thats me, maybe something to try while the number's could be lower. cheers

Another good days racing from the Torch crew track was awesome and went from very wet in the first qualifier to bone dry for the rest of the meeting.
Must remember to have an early night on the saturday though it might just help with my concentration!

Thanks to Jamie and Chris who helped me out today, what a wally, fancy forgeting me tyres .
Good banter from Byrner's and the rest of the gang.
Track was great and the Durango was fast

[jamiekerr14]

Thanks again to Torch Crew-and exspeially Dan for lending me his spare charger!

My UDC-30 decided to go on me!
And a stray screw *scr*wed my spur on lap 1 of the final, So that was me done. Great morning's racing. And look forward to coming back, and trying to get that little bit closer to Steve

[r1horn]

Graet day today though my car wood not work ,new speedo keep switching of.
Thanks to dan brown for letting me drive his car
will try again next week

A fair days racing, with people not sure what they want with the hump???? I like the it But some feedback by all would be helpful. Julian has the laptop and I do not promise results willl be up-dated but I will chase him tonight.

The 502 is a little poorly, Mikey had all my spares, my diff crunched in the end and the front wish bone has a hairline fracture Still car lasted to the last 2 laps of the final.

Mike and Ale, an up-date of Team Torch performance at the regional would be nice to see up-dated on the Torch forum????????
