Default Transponders

Do you use transponders? and have you upgraded the barriers, last time I raced there over a year ago, it was quite hectic. Oh and how many people are turning up these days, numbers where a bit low last time but it may just have been the night on which I came.

working on 240v power and transponders,may take a little while to get numbers back but definitely a venue worth developing.

If that is how Nepean RC like to race then I dont think you are going to get too many drivers from else where comming... Who wants to break parts on their car for nothing not me and many other guys I race with

Fun meet.... no 240v power was a bit of a downer but was a nice track layout and good surface with plenty of runoff for mong sessions. Nice to go to a meeting to have fun and take it easy.

Track needs to be BIGGER. Not liking the idea of having 1 meter track width most of the time. Also cut the amount of corners in half. Keep it simple, easier/cheaper on the cars...more fun to race and watch.

I had them change a narrow section to better cater for an acident free race. Track was fine, most drivers however could not stay on the racing line and with little trackroom it was prolly a prob for them.

As this club gets up and running I'm sure they will solve this prob with more track material. Should become a good fun place to race.

yes we definitely could use more track material now we have more room than we know what to do with.

was good to see some regular faces back and also some interest from some new ones, the kids in novice certainly seemed to be having a good time.
