Sorry to be a worry guts. The problem is insurance. If by chance someone gets hurt by a car on the track, we that is Snetterton Park Model Car Club cannot be held responsible, and whilst I know that you are all mates etc some sort of claim may take place. What concerns me most is the "younger members" marshalling, if in their haste to retrieve an upturned car they get hit and hurt by another car it could have serious reprocussions, all I ask is please bear this in mind over the weekend.

Snett. website is back up and running [^]
-
My son Tristan who manages the Snett. shop has raced IC for the past 4 years and seem to have the knack of getting non-starter starting, pop into the shop on Saturday and have a word.
-
Like to restate an earlier comment. Bring plenty of warm clothing, the forecast for the weekend is COLD.
-
The guy that owns the servers is actually in hospital in Norwich and the servers are down in Docklands, under normal circumstances he would have fixed it the same day, service is normally excellent.
-
Quick apology to anyone trying to get onto the Snett. website. Its bust or rather the server that holds the site is down and won't be back again until sometime on Wednesday.

Right before everyone get to carried away, MUSIC over the PA is NO NO. Whoever is running things will have to seek me out to get the PA sorted anyway. I did offer my services months ago with regard to keeping things ticking over on the Sunday but if Minijosh wants to do it so be it. See you all next weekend, might even get into the Breckland Lodge on Friday nite if 'er indoors will let me out to play.

Chris, I've got a Tamiya Eurocup European Finals Official Shirt if thats any good, unless of course some kind person supplies me with one.
-
Not to put a to finer point on it, you are very lucky to have mains for charging at an outdoor track, most expect you to bring a 12v to charge from. Yes there are 2 portacabins with mains, But bring a table to work off of and something to sit on, and plenty of warm clothing, Snett. get "B" cold at this time of year.

You'll need to cater for yourselves on Saturday, but Sunday more than enough fast food outlets plus the resturant where you can get a breakfast from about 7.30am.
-
Thanks Tipsy, best get along to Spec Savers. Will get it changed
-
Don't want to be a harbinger of doom, but at 9.00am this morning the track was under 2" of snow. A weather forecast can be obtained from the club website www.smmcc.co.uk just click on the Weather button.
It'll be great next week anyway[8D]

Blazerfrazer, good idea. It's already used at IC Nationals where everyone just writes their name on a peg. The Snett pegs are easily seen and if a simple wooden peg was put in place of our normal one when being used it would be obvious which were away from the board. All it requires is a load of wooden pegs and a Biro.
-
We have a full range of 27Mhz crystals including splits in the shop if anyone gets stuck.
-
If your looking for clubs after racing, you'll have to trek into Norwich, plenty there. Several local pubs offer very good value for money food but not much entertainment wise.
-
Gentleman, as I have already stated we run a pegboard system at Snett., which I would be truely greatful if you would use. I appreciate that each person would like their own frequency for the day but this can or will cause MAJOR problems.
Thanks.
-
Beetle, dogs OK but you must keep it on a lead.
-
Beetlebanger if you've got an e-mail address I can send you the current list of local B&B's which we send out for Snetterton.
-
Wrong shop M8, that HUGE building to the right of the track which was empty, is now the shop. Astroturf, what astroturf? You know something I don't
-
Sorry guys but the Mini-Z track has had to be put on hold, due to an ever expanding stock holding in the shop and the need for space.[V]
-
It shouldn't be a problem. Over the last 4 years we've had nothing stolen from racers during a race meeting.
-
I'm quite prepared to run things on Sunday if required. All I'll need is some sort of running list.
-
Yes, the off road track is still unfinished. Weather permitting I'll try and get the grass cut, but it is usuable. Please remember that Snetterton is primarily an on-road track, the off road is there only for a bit of fun. I'm hoping this year to finally get it finished, again time and weather permitting.
-
Guys. Snetterton run a peg board system. Each 27MHz & 40Mhz frequency has been allocated a peg with a label attached. When you want to use a particular frequency check the board if the peg is missing its being used. WHAT SHOULD HAPPEN IS THAT AFTER EACH RUN THE PERSON USING THE PEG RETURNS IT TO THE PEG BOARD SO ANOTHER PERSON CAN USE IT. The system does work but if people wander off with the peg and don't return it the whole system gets screwed up. It's up to you guys on the day to keep the system running smoothly.

Snetterton '04...A BIG thankyou

Hi all, sorry about the weather, glad you all enjoyed yourselves. Spoke to both Chris and Moosey about a summer date in 2005 or maybe even this year (who's going to be brave enough to offer to organise it). How about a weekend in August, any one apart from weekend the 15th and 16th.
Special note for Ryan. Next time M8 the mic is yours OK.
Once again glad you all enjoyed yourselves.
