Racing this Thursday (16th February)

[gordon]

Hi Guys,

FRC will be open for practice, testing and racing from 7:30 PM this Thursday (16th February) for our 2017 Group C classes, Mini Challenge IROC (Avg of 6 races), Rally Car (3 stages of avg of 6 cars), Slot.It Challenge (3 races).

Remember that we try to start our events no later than 8:30PM sharp. Here's the usual schedule:

• Free practice and testing up to 8:30 PM
• 8:30 PM - Technical Inspection (excluding IROC classes).
• Qualifying followed by racing. Drivers not ready when called to grid will be replaced by any standby drivers who are ready.
• Post-race Technical Inspection (if required)
• After racing - Packing up and liming/old talk (but not too late!).

Key points to pass tech inspection:

• Rally Car - If visible, interior must have both driver and navigator figures (heads minimum); no traction magnets; "Magnet-effect" motors are not allowed.
• Slot.It Challenge - Group C Slot.It cars only; single standard Slot.It "non-race" magnet (the one with the grooves); Slot.It tyres.

You can see the 2017 class regulations here and the general racing regulations here.

Don't forget to bring along some refreshments.

Hi guys see you all on Thursday.

Hello guys and in case anyone wondered ...

I don't normally reply here that I am racing (other than not) but under the current and overall circumstances - I am making (worldly, spiritually & slot-cars too) arrangements to be present at FRC today

See you'll later and I remembered Arden telling me last week, he will try and make racing tonight.

That said, I checked back that MC IROC was last raced (RR206) just under a year ago and Arden was present at this commemorated event. It was also the only time he raced for the year ... March 2016.

Btw concerning these cars - I did some service and cleaning plus made a single change with one of the livery/bodies.

All should be pleased with these cars and hope they are raced tonight.

Luke
