The Dark Knight Posted July 10, 2014 Author Share Posted July 10, 2014 It is a great event, you can just enter one round if you wish. Carlisle has an awesome track, definitely worth going to if you can. Stonehaven is my local track and also worth the trip Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Dark Knight Posted July 18, 2014 Author Share Posted July 18, 2014 Thanks dude The weather forecast isn't looking great but should be a good event none the less. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ta05 Posted July 21, 2014 Share Posted July 21, 2014 I raced Friday, 5th in the A from the same position on the grid was all I could muster up. Almost took 4th in the last minute but he went into me. Hopefully your race faired better Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dark Knight Posted July 21, 2014 Author Share Posted July 21, 2014 I had a fairly dominating weekend of racing. There was a superpole, 5 qualifiers & 3 finals. TQ'd the lot and won the finals giving me the win for the Stonehaven round Saturday was very wet, had to stop a couple of races due to thunder storms!! I was expecting it to be a wet one so had my car well prepared for it and didn't have any failures all weekend. Sunday was still wet but nowhere near as wet as Saturday. It started brightening up towards the end of the afternoon but the track was still wet. By the third final, the track seemed to dry very quick but everyone was still on wets. The track was declared dry after our final so the other classes had to use the controlled Volante tyre. I had a brilliant weekend with some close racing, it was challenging with the rain & wet track but had some good banter on and off the track. Roll on Much More GP 2015 where I'll be sure to manage both rounds Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Dark Knight Posted July 23, 2014 Author Share Posted July 23, 2014 I race at least once a fortnight at the local club but also try to venture out to other clubs at least once a month. I haven't had the time to venture to other clubs lately as been very busy at work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ta05 Posted July 24, 2014 Share Posted July 24, 2014 Sounds like a good time was had I have sneaked in a few 2nd place finishes in the A for this championship (and probably thrown the win away from grip roll) but this occurred when the two fastest guys were not racing at my local club. I have experimented with different tyres, I have a shell to cut and spray. I still think the setup, motor and maybe my lipo need changing to put up any real chance of a fight. But making the A final most meetings is good enough for me I don't usually race every week (usually only once a month) so I am enjoying the racing whilst I can!
