That is what Monday is for

Thats whats on the entry form if it comes to that.
Busy day on Saturday 16 races in around bit over two hours around. Just a reminder that there is pre and post scrinteering to be done on cars and as you can see we cannot hold the meeting up for anybody so make sure you are early to scrinteering before your race.
For the demo class, Friday you can bring your motors to Bob Death to be checked and tagged before Saturdays racing.
"Please tell me if I am wrong from the club", checking and tagging of all cars e.g. chassis, bodies and wings will start on Friday. Best to get that out of the way early.


See you trackside

Wifi at the track and online for those who ain't there.

I tested the online setup at the track and it is less than one minute behind the racing so you can have the results including the current qualifying order at any time during the day from anywhere. Its nice to see racing in oz getting with the times....
