Vintage is starting to attract a wider variety of cars.

SCT classes a little light at the moment, but 2WD and Stadium Truck numbers look strong.

Default Entries Closing Friday

Could those intending to come please PM me their details by 5 pm on Friday.

I have to send the entry list to the Show Organisers so you can get in without paying.

Currently we are up to 57 entries. The drivers' stand will limit us to 8 cars per race at most (possibly 7 for classes without juniors), so we have 2 groups each of Rookie, Vintage, 2WD Buggy and Stadium Truck at the moment, and one of 4WD Buggy, Pro-2 SCT and 4x4 SCT. That's 11 races in a round.

I'm currently looking at doing the drivers' meeting at 8.30 on Sunday, with racing to start at 9 am. Depending on how we get through the rounds we might have time left over for Double-A finals.

IMPORTANT: There is power at the venue, but it is limited. I need to ask people to pre-charge as many batteries as they can. If everyone does this we'll have no problems with power, and those who need to will be able to recharge packs, solder different motors in, etc. No compressors please, you won't need them anyway – it's grass.

66 now. Rookie is the biggest class at the moment, that's not really that surprising this is a very beginner friendly track and meeting.
