Just seen the track layout. Looks like hairpins and very long straights with not much in the way of sweepers or fast bends. Should be fun and I think the marshals will be busy!
I've not set up my cars to suit the track. I've just built them so they will hopefully go fast! Top speed should be good with the gearing. Acceleration could be an issue. We shall see. This month I will mostly be racing Super Gs! With a side order of LifeLike and a small green salad. Oh and a speed shifter to try out as well! -------------------- I miss racing!!

We`ve got Super G`s on the go as well, one Mega G with upgraded magnets, a Harden Creek Tyco to give the McCann clan some competition and a second Tyco similar to the HC but looking better, F A B Scott.
Andy, will Track Mate make it`s much anticipated début tonight (spell checker put the é in not me I swear) (how do you even get a é anyway) (...... I`ll be thinking about that all day now..... I think I`ll go back to bed  ).

As long as the new practise of writing down fastest laps continues, I'll be happy! I'm itching to get calculating the ips to see how these things shape up against the EAHORC Pro Mods.
Don't forget your headgear Simon! Or are you sticking to racing gloves? I've forgotten to bring my camera to work so no racing snaps from me this evening. Unless I just use my phone of course! -------------------- I miss racing!!

100 miles due south and it would be début, but in Worthing debut is acceptable
 However, the answer is not this month. Robin will take away the module and relay and hook it up with the existing hardware, hopefully for May. Sorry about the delay. We do have an upgrade for this month, but this will be mostly relevant for our hoards of twitter followers. It may be useful for Gareth's paternity leave too I will have a Mega-G or two set up with the new ISU guide pin. This will be available to race in F1 in June, but another successful test tonight will ensure production goes ahead asap. The new pin (bottom) moves the guide forward slightly and allows the front wing and axle to be used without fouling other cars on tight curves:

Bring on the derby! That's a (body) cracking idea! I've got double neo-magneted campervan to race with. Only trouble is the surfboard on the roof.
I should repaint my knackered old BMW 320i as a banger racer. That would be really cool. Just under 2.5 hours till I set off from Redhill for Goring! And counting. -------------------- I miss racing!!

Thirty-one racers on the WHO Mod grid tonight - three joining us for the first time.
 Some great new cars, as usual.  The Harden Creek Tycos were very competitive again  It was John and Callum back in Victory Lane  One huge upgrade that was more visible to the rest of the world was Andrew setting up his scoreboard to send out tweets all night. Very cool  If you followed us, let us know what you thought. Results, more pics and video to follow
