EERC BRITCAR Snett Night Race 4/5/6 Nov - Page 2

Claire · 21 Oct 2005, 10:43 (Ref:1439577)

In a perfect world having a rota for breaks would be great but apart from last Sunday the majority of this season has seen posts with only just enough cover. I guess we will have to see what happens but a programme like that may put a few off.

DaveW · 21 Oct 2005, 13:03 (Ref:1439747)

Is JP planning on fitting lights to the FPA's, given that sunset is 16:19 (approx.) on the 5th November! Might get away with it if the weather is fine (ha-ha).

DaveW · 24 Oct 2005, 18:25 (Ref:1442423)

Although not on the EERC website yet, I believe that the timetable has been modified and the FPA's will be racing earlier. Unfortunately I don't know if the break times have altered - the problem for the night practice is that it should take place 30 minutes after sunset, which does restrict when it can be run.

Terry Scannell · 24 Oct 2005, 21:04 (Ref:1442552)

Thanks for the update Dave. Whatever it's still going to be a good meeting and I sure that everyone concerned will create a workable timetable before the weekend, so we can finish the year off in style!

Thanks for the feedback on Sunday morning also, much appreciated.

I take it we will not be required during the "sponsors laps" so we get a decent break there then aswell

Terry Scannell · 28 Oct 2005, 22:39 (Ref:1446413)

Hi Andy,

Yes, hopefully we should be able to stand down for approx 20mins, may depend on who and what's involved in the "Sponsors Laps", but if cover is needed it should be minimal I would guess. At least the organisers have tried to provide additional rest periods as requested, obviously at the expense of or due to the lack of MSV FFord entries.

Terry

snetmarshal · 28 Oct 2005, 22:43 (Ref:1446418)

yep, unless of course these sponsors laps become chaotic and they start throw themselves at you!!! LOL

Terry Scannell · 28 Oct 2005, 22:52 (Ref:1446423)

At me??? Why would they want to do that???!!!!!!!!!don't tell me!!! LOL

snetmarshal · 28 Oct 2005, 23:02 (Ref:1446429)

just hope you have your night writing pen ready for the britcar boys & girls!!!

Terry Scannell · 28 Oct 2005, 23:08 (Ref:1446435)

Andy,
Yes going shopping tomorrow for torch batteries, note pads and plenty of refills for pens!!
See you at the weekend, not sure where I'll be but I'm sure you'll soon notice by seeing where Alex is heading!!!

Terry

snetmarshal · 28 Oct 2005, 23:10 (Ref:1446436)

well we had worked out our crew (however many that wont be!) should be bombhole we reckon, if that is any help. I shall just look for all the flashing orange lights to spot you!!!

Terry Scannell · 28 Oct 2005, 23:12 (Ref:1446439)

That should mean our crew will be Coram on Saturday and Russell on Sunday - oh Joy!!! there was I looking forward to a quiet restfull day!!, unless a transfer is on the cards of course!!

snetmarshal · 28 Oct 2005, 23:16 (Ref:1446441)

Well a transfer deal may need to be negotiated, at the moment, i think there is 2 of us!!! But i could be suprised and be wrong,(really am starting to think i have an issue that the others havent told me about! LOL) or sat morning, i could be discussing transfer fees! LOL

Terry Scannell · 30 Oct 2005, 18:27 (Ref:1447745)

Good to see that the circuit (Motorsport Vision /BHRC) are providing Breakfast and a hot drink for £3.00 on Saturday and Sunday rather than the normal prices.

In addition, as Stan has mentioned in another thread, there will be a disco together with some free food for marshals in Tyrrell's on Saturday night from 8.15pm after the night race.

Terry

snetmarshal · 31 Oct 2005, 22:11 (Ref:1448838)

So Terry, you getting the white suit and platform shoes out to do your night fever routine!!!!

Terry Scannell · 31 Oct 2005, 22:21 (Ref:1448851)

I thought that you would be better suited to that role!!!! Don't think the white suit and platform shoes would go with my zimmer frame!!!

snetmarshal · 31 Oct 2005, 22:25 (Ref:1448856)

no white suit for me! I have my shiney new overalls!!! LOL

Claire · 3 Nov 2005, 11:31 (Ref:1451234)

I see there is an issue 3 timetable on the EERC website which is nothing like the one above, back to just one break and a guest championship. Not sure which one we will be following, I guess we will have to wait and see!

**Snapper Baz** · 3 Nov 2005, 17:48 (Ref:1451444)

Just to add that the weather forcast is absulte c**p for Saturday as well! I'm going to be a bit unhappy if it gets rained off having driven all that way for it-driving/marshalling/photography in the dark and rain at Snet' will not be much fun !!

DaveW · 3 Nov 2005, 18:56 (Ref:1451486)

The timetable that Terry posted on the 28th is the same as the one on MSV's website and also matches the timetable published in the Final Instructions, so that's what should be happening!

All of which means that we will have Britsports, Britcars, FPA, T Cars and VSR/SUper Silhouettes. The only other track activity will be sponsors laps in road cars, time permitting, after the second break.

Update on forecast (according to Metcheck) - OK Saturday morning then small amount of rain from Saturday afternoon and throughout Sunday.

Terry Scannell · 3 Nov 2005, 19:48 (Ref:1451530)

Thanks Dave, yes the EERC website has now had a new news item posted under the heading "sign on times Snett" which shows the correct timetable with the correct break periods on Saturday as previously posted here on the 28th Oct. Hopefully this clarifies the situation.
