I just remembered that my car has not even run on my own track! The track was not running when the car went in the post to Steve! i just hope it handles the jump down the back straight.

[manimmal]

i hope mine doesn't explode when it gets near the jump......

[kalbfellp]

No just the body jumps and leaves the Chassis on the track!

Maybe you could have a impromptu "birdman rally" after the racing finishes.

Is qualifying this weekend?

My Birdman rally is a random thing, my escort gets stage fright otherwise, and the last thing we want is antything less than a complete failure........

The cars were qualified tonight. Each cars was run for 10 to 20 laps to try and get feel for the handling and then the computer set for 10 laps of Qualifying.



I will try and collate my notes on the cars over the weekend and give you some feed back.

Just like old times Phil

[imugford]

looks like the charger needs a plug and points change... has the oil and water mixed well yet phil ??

[kalbfellp]

Paul: Great cars it suits our track as I would have expected.
Ian: the charger has some real problems the front of the car is bouncing and it is even deslotting down the straight. I thought at first it was the front wheels but removed than and still the same so I hope to have another look tonight,I have 5 cars to look at.
