[Stevo]

20 cars it is so yeah?? Job, shur see how it goes.....

I've a question for ya Bart.. What was the story with the Indian in the shed and yur man who kept askin me for 70 cent?????

The 70cent is a collection pot for fence repairs

[Stevo]

ok ive got an idea for next time....
as ye all know there was alot of waiting to get back out on track..
but if people ACTUALLY LISTENED to what we were trying to get across things would of went more quickly...
next time there's gonna be fences at finish line..
so here's the options we came up with..


and as derk said.. PLEASE COP THE FOOK ON COMING BACK INTO PITS..
also burning tires in the one spot... NO more of this is going to be taking and ye are just not going to be asked again...
ye know who ye are and so do we...


#1
20 cars limit.... €75 each (alot more track time)

#2
30 cars like yesterday.. (normal)

#3
split into 2 groups and 3 one hour sessions


comment away there.....
cheers
bart

Hmmmm since you put that up ted NOBODY has said yeh to one or no to the other

Lads its the only drift practice day YOU are been givin every chance to speak up and say what way you want it run... Speak up da fuck less cars/ques/ect ect

Good day yesterday.
Some huge improvments in guys,Dave Egan and Dave Manning were different drivers towards the wet day.
Fair play to Fitzy Mike for Managing to get a full lap in Jules' 14.
Very relaxed day with a good vibe about it!


Now,With regard to the Q'ing,
I dont think the answer is 20 cars,I genuinly believe the way is spliting it into groups.
The amount of drivers there yesterday that I spoke to that were pissed off having to stand by their cars and move them every 2mins instead of being able to pull in and view it while still knowing they could get out in 15/20mins whatever time.Loads of drivers wanted to view other peoples lines and battles yesterday and never got the chance.

Idealy,Split 30 cars in 15/15,Im sure it wont be an issue to run a guy on his own that way nobodys hissy over one group being smaller than the other.Or else take on 32 and spilt into groups of 16. Have a break in the day and split it up equally in timed sessions after that.

I reckon the novelty is going to be burned out too with it being run so often.
Its greed on someones part I'd imagine.
For the next day the track needs to run different to change from the norm and not have so much routine imo before drivers get bored of it.

All of the above IMO.

read the thread and maybe you might be able afford it

??? What do u mean ?
Sorry im having 1 of my many stupid moments


@Mark : yeah I was pushing it with the 50 euro
cuz I'm not working and my auld lad is giving me a Hand running the car....
But I think as Mick said there about the groups...
Two or 3 different session would be the way to go..
Instead of 2 laps have 4 laps etc....

[yowdy]

that is a gud idea split into groups and do 4 laps

[Prodrifter86]

Yeah and have some good drivers in with beginners so you can mix it up as drivers feel more confident following and there's less spinning out etc... If a few lads wanted to go in the 1 group for a session let them
go ahead ..

[Prodrifter86]

Also forgot to add

3 groups of 10
20-30mins sessions
4 laps
then you hav 30-60 mins
to take pictures, give the car a breather,have a chat and chill out and do any jobs to the car in that of time. Also each group should have 5 pro or very good drivers and 5 beginners for less spinning out and to just to follow or lead and you can use there lines

[Mick K]

Junior,Lay off the grouping off of pros and Beginners etc,It'll end up like mondello,Lads picking and swapping groups regardless of what way management pair them off!

I agree, split into 2groups of 16 ,it'll allow drivers to watch other lads + generally make the day more relaxed, rather than spending the whole day stuck in the car queing.

Exactly , what he said .
I know 1 person that won't mind the que
Runs after runs and the next thing you'll see on this thread is its all too quick and the cars are overheating and blah , blah , blah .... Just my 2 cents
