I'll be taking Jimbo so no more room at the inn in my super fast mobile. Probably a good thing to have a wingman too, I have no idea where the track is! Laughing

I'm not following Hubbard though, he will probably program his sat-nav to take us to Norfolk via Devon! Wink

I'll be OK, I lived near there for 6 years. Zipper won't need to go anywhere near the satnav Laughing

It's quite easy to get to compared to most of Norfolk - through Norwich, then onto the Wroxham Road (A1151), then take a right into Muck Lane a couple of miles up the road past Spowston Manor Golf Club.

If we get a few more, I'll happily take a car load up, if not I reckon the rest of us can fit in one car - depends on how much stuff we take I guess...

Looks like we need 1 more 4wd entry & 3 more 2wd entries... Sad

If we all jump in a few cars, the distance/cost shouldn't be an issue.

NBC have gone to the effort of building a new track & travelling down to support the LBC & Coastal rounds. Would be a real shame if we have to cancel.

2WD -

LBC boys.
All with top 3 positions available to them: -
Colesie - Strongest chance of a 1 or 2 spot.
Juddy - Can still do a top 3 if he drives like we know he can
Steve C - Strong position, a couple of high 40 rounds and the competition is blown wide open.

4WD
This is a more tricky one. I have top spot sewn up with the 50pointers in the last three rounds due. Easty will cry by missing out by 1 point. Shame, but the crystal ball never lies.

Phil Jeffries could finish up nice and high and giving a Zipper a run for his money in the closing stages.
Chris Condon?
Steve Baker (Although I hear he has sold the BMax?) Could enter with a 2WD and act as a path clearer for Steve C! Cool

AxelF has a round in the bag and could finish high with the last three rounds (Did I spell that wrong!!! Laughing

)

Anyway, without exclusion there are the likely lads from LBC.

Oh, before I go just wanted to say that I am in hope that Mr Myall takes a week off, Zipper and I think it's getting a bit easy now and we both think he should stay home and practice............ < click here to reply http://sengrandprixseries.myfanforum.org/about30.html > Laughing

This is so disappointing, here we have a series that is genuinely wanting to have fun and at the same time produce some quality racing, it has already shown that it can do just that... and there is so little support for it from the people that would make it all that bit more exciting.
It wont be long before we run out of clubs to race at in this region if things carry on.
The argument of 'i'm not good enough to race in the series' is just complete rubbish. Get in there! have a go and enjoy yourself, visit other tracks and sample different atmospheres across the region.
I witnessed the regionals at near death last weekend, the most pathetic excuse for a meeting I have ever seen, and now it seems likely that with the same lack of support another series is following the same route. It's not the clubs fault, MERCC put on a brilliant circuit last weekend, a huge amount of effort went into the track by 1 man who didn't get a penny for his effort, and no bugger turned up to use the feckin' thing! These events should be looked forward to, marked on the calendar, not feared, they should be seen as an oppertunity to try something new and have a road-trip and a bloody good laugh doing it.
Why are you not supporting it!

"I have no evidence just rumour the Bmax has gone and a 2WD is back. Is it true, I just don't now. What I do know is BenC told me along with, Michael Jackson is still alive and staying with him in Manningtree. I just don't think Ben would tell stories!"

First I heard about SteveB selling his B-Max was reading it on your post! Confused

Shamone Mother Fu...

Where did I hear it Confused

I hope I am not dreaming about Steve and his cars again. The shrink said the prescription would sort that out?

Oh well Rolling Eyes

, worst case is that Steves ears burn a little, I end up looking stupid and Chester learns the Moonwalk. Cool
