Meeting Format

· Drivers are divided into "formulas" depending on ability and will usually race with others of a similar standard.

· Each meeting consists of 3 rounds of Heats followed by one round of Finals.

· The fastest time for each driver places him in a qualifying list which is used to determine positions for the Finals.

· The first 5 - 7 fastest qualifiers will form the A Final, then the next 5 - 7 fastest qualifiers form the B Final etc...

· (Info for newcomers to the hobby) The club uses transponders. these are small black boxes usually attached to your car bodyshell. When your car passes underneath the timing loop, the transponder sends a signal to the timing computer and your lap is counted. If you do not put a transponder on your car then your laps will not be counted. If you do not have a hole in your bodyshell for a transponder, don't panic, we can make it for you, just ask.

 

Further Information

· Booking in starts at approximately 6-30, and closes at 7-15 sharp. If you're running a bit late but still want to race, ring up one of the committee members before 7-15 and we will enter you into the event. See Contact Us page for mobile numbers. Meetings finish between 10-30 and 11-00.

Cars must weigh a minimum of 1500 grams ready to race (including battery and bodyshell) and have a minimum ride height of 5mm.  You can run either 13.5 Brushless, 27 turn Stock or silver can (kit ) motors.

· If it is your first visit to the club, say hello to the guys at race control when you first arrive and give them your name, your crystals, and your ability level, ie: novice..... intermediate..... hi I'm Dave Spashett.....

· After you have finished racing, place your transponder back in the rack or give it to the next racer who needs it, place your car on the pit table and go straight out to marshall.

· It costs £5-00 per driver per meeting to race at SRCC.
