Hi Guys,
Looking at your finals setup. How will you be running marshalling as bump-up drivers will not be able to marshall. Also if a driver is in say Buggy C final bumping to the A final there is no time to recharge RX batteryies if you run all class finals straight after one and other.
Truggy, EP, Buggy, Truggy, EP, Buggy etc finals would be fix most issues as EP helps split the rounds.
Just a couple of things that may need to be tweeked.

Officially there is no camping at the track, however if you are offering to act as overnight security i will talk to the committee / council and see what we can do.

Hi Scott

Hi Guys,
Looking at your finals setup. How will you be running marshalling as bump-up drivers will not be able to marshall.

We will have 8 people left to marshall

Also if a driver is in say Buggy C final bumping to the A final there is no time to recharge RX batteryies if you run all class finals straight after one and other.

This is the trade off to allow multiple nitro class entries, suggest bringing a second rx battery just in case.

Hope this helps

Default BETA Big Bash

Hi Luke and fellow BETA racers.
I will be unable to attend this event this year as it clashes with our own Sunshine State Interclub Series run up in Central QLD on the same weekend.
Hope to be able to make it to the next holding of a BETA sponsored event.
