Hi,

I'd love to go too. Just to see who's gonna be in my rear view mirror! Only kidding. Will it be a week day or weekend? Have you got an idea yet on how many people will be racing the mini's next year? Also have you decided on the regulations for racing next year?

Thanks

Tom

[markrally]

Regulations will be as per BARC NORTHWESTERN SPORTS & SALOON CHAMPIONSHIP until a seperate ZCARS Class within the championship is setup???

Cheers

Hi, i was referring to the regulations for the z cars class as chris has mentioned in one of the previous posts that the class has been approved.

ive just got to dot the is and cross the ts with the rules basically we will be running within the general rules of class c with some additional restrictions to do with minimum weight,approved tyres engine spec etc this means that to be eligible for the z cars side of things you have to comply with our bits as well as the general class c stuff

Hi Chris, i'll book that date out then as it'll be good to see the car on the track and to meet others who may be racing next year.

Race 2 from Oulton on the 29th.

Probably the most entertaining of all the videos! Clicky

[markrally]

Looks like too much rear brake bias to me!!!
Good fun though

[crossed thread]

Well spotted Mark.

Having watched the first video I think that was the cause of the end of the first race. The back steps out a bit too close too the grass!
I think Chris used it to pitch the car in to the hairpin like you rally boys do sometimes but that lock up at the end of the pit straight in race 2 looked a bit hairy!

[z cars chris]

yes i think we now have the evidence to suggest that i ought to leave the sideways stuff behind, when you go for the demon late braking the back end gets a bit squirrely so i reckon a twiddle of brake bias is in order
i think we can safely say i was close to the limit on saturday
