Week 2

Results Updated

Track_20160113The Wednesday after a Sunday meeting is normally quite quiet but it wasn’t this week… 40 Drivers and it wasn’t even truck week!

 

Happy New Year!

Results Updated

Track_20160106So that’s the first one of the year done and dusted and it was truck week too ๐Ÿ˜ฏ . Thank you to everyone that got their BRCA membership sorted out before the meeting. We only had 3 people that I had toย join online for them on their behalf. It’s so easy to do even Ollie managed to join on his phone while he was waiting to book in ! ๐Ÿ˜› It’s Round 4 of the Winter Series this Sunday and you will all need BRCA membership for that too and that includes all the youngsters that don’t normally come on Wednesday’s as well!

Winter Series Round 4 This Sunday (10/1/16)

Doors open at 7 for those helping to setup, Practice from about 8 and qualifying from 9:30. A few of the regular helpers can’t make this one so if anyone else would like to rock up early and help it would be much appreciated ๐Ÿ™‚

 

 

Merry Christmas!

5 of your best

Results updated

Track_20151216So we tried something a little different this week. 2 heats of best 5 consecutive lap qualifying and a 6 minute final. Personally I liked it although the best 5 might be better as best 4 or even best 3 laps due to the short nature of our track.

Christmas Meeting Next week

It’s time for another one of our ‘world famous’ Christmas team meetings ๐Ÿ™‚

  • ยฃ1 race fee.
  • Team endurance race + team races.
  • Run whatever you want 2WD, 4WD, SCT, ST, Farm King…

Week 1 – FTQ

Results Updated

So in the run up to Christmas we’ll have a few non-championship meetings and we’ll mix up the format a little just to keep you on your toes ๐Ÿ˜› . This week was FTQ Qualifying. Next week is Truck week and regardless of what format the buggies are running, the Trucks will run to the Normal round by round qualifying since it’s the 12th and final round of the championship.

Edit: I’ve just spotted the SCT championship hasn’t been updated for a couple of months. I’ll get that sorted out at the weekend. – Done 30/11/15

Next Wednesday (2/12/15)

For those of you that missed last night (and a reminder for those that were there), we asked for as many people as possible to get there for 6PM to help get the Astroturf out. The Astroturf isn’t on the stage, it’s in the back room ๐Ÿ˜ฏ which means it’s a lot harder to get to. We also need extra bodies to stay behind at the end to help put it back into the back room at the end of the evening… Please ๐Ÿ™‚ We will also need to do the same the following week to get it out again but it will go back onto the stage as normal afterwards.

I will gently remind you that the only reason the meeting wasn’t just cancelled was because people volunteered to be there for 6 to help…

Don’t leave it to the last minute. I did mine online a couple of weeks ago and the membership cards took about a week to arrive. If you don’t want to do it online, you can download the form, print it off and post it along with a cheque. If you have an old-skool short membership number that you want to keep, you must renew by the end of this year to keep it!
