All of this is still dependant on whether the shop gets in my new esc before the weekend

Depending on the number of entries , and if you allow an hour per round.......that would mean the meeting would end by about 4-4.30pm as per the last meeting..........that shouldn't stop you from having a run........just leave when you have to

Not criticising the changes so please do not flame me!

I have only had a couple practice runs on the old track. And i found the table top into the last corner very rewarding when you got it right.
It looks a lot more forgiving now, not that is a bad thing as i didnt get it right that often

That jump section on the main straight looks awesome though, car breaking awesome but still. Wish i didnt work night shift

The tabletop prior to the last corner has had the up ramp reprofiled so you get more air.........so it's not as forgiving as you may think

And you have to attack the new jump with a bit of thinking.......and you won't break a car if you do

A challenge it is..........no use changing the track if we are going to make it easier

And having tested the new stuff on Saturday I can say that there will be a whole heap of fun this week getting to grips with all the changes

Have fun , guys.......
