Hi all,

Just looked at the Pod calendar & note that it is bike only on the 14th (Straightliners event Rd 1 of the championship + RWYB for bikes also)

Is this fixed or is there any flex at all for a few cars to be added ?
Only reason i ask is that the following week we have the 1st round of the HKS series for the Skyline & gives us a chance to run it in anger following recent changes over the winter. Also if we did break anything gives us a chance to try & fix.



Any help or info is much appreciated.

Many thanks
John

Saturday 13th March is a RWYB open to all. Straightliners on Sunday 14th is a bike-only event.

There is also a Webster Race Engineering Test Day at the Pod on Friday 19th March (not 18th as the Home Page says). Entry form at www.webster-race-engineering.co.uk/test_day.doc

Hi Tog,

Yes saw the Webster race day & have spoken to Ian but very close to the 1st comp if we broke something.
Saw the 13th as well but wasnt sure how well prepped the track would be for a typical RWYB & thought that the prep for the 14th may be a lot better ?. The 13th if the track would be good or 14th would be ideal as gives us some kind of chance to repair or replace if we did have an issue.

If the 14th is a no no & the prep cant be promised for the 13th then no choice but the 19th.

My advice is to give Darren Prentice a call at the Pod and ask him about 13th. They do some prep for RWYBs but if they know in advance that someone is coming who needs special treatment then you may well get it.

Hi John, we ran our quickest time at end of last year on a rwyb track. A 7.55, sometimes a loose track is a fast track! Speak to Darren as tog says, if your worried at all.
