NOOB Series Update - 13 July 2010






NOOB Series Update - 13 July 2010

After an exciting first 2WD race, it's time to gear up for ROUND 2! Some things to take note of moving ahead...

1. Round 2 Sign Up
Registration is now open for Round 2 of the 2WD series. Visit the Registration Thread on RCtech or click on the banner below to sign up.




2. We're working through the feedback!
The feedback we've received on the boards, through PMs and at the track have been great, keep them coming. While we obviously can't implement everything and keep everyone happy, we do promise that all feedback will be heard and we'll continue to tweak and improve the series as we move along. Currently we're looking at:

a. Starting the race earlier, increasing times between runs
We intend to start the racing at 2:30pm instead of 3:00pm and will double the intervals between runs to give racers a tad more time to breathe.

b. Running a 2+2+1 format for the race
Currently considering running 2 Rounds of Heats (3 groups) and 2 Rounds of Mains (A,B,C Mains) with an additional 1 more main if time allows. We think 3 rounds of mains should be do-able but will test to see. Apologies to all who missed out on any runs last Sunday because the race ended a little behind schedule.

c. Grid Positions for mains
Some liked our grid formation rules, some didn't. After deliberation, we will probably move to a fixed grid position for the mains (as opposed to our shifting one). However, we will try shifting positions for the heats so guys that run faster in their heats will get to go first in the following heat to try to achieve best personal timings.




Thanks again for your support!
