Next GTG:
Sunday, May 6th


This one will once again be at Dave W.'s Common Room in Newton.

Hyland Creek Village
6841 138th St., Newton
Buzzer #: 39
>>Google Map<<

Track setup is @ 9am, Racing by 10-11am & break down for around 4-5pm.
Most people are showing up closer to 11 or 12, come out earlier if you can to help setup or at least start running!

A small request, please try to bring the correct amount of $$ with you.
Either be it the $5 for the All-Day run, or $10 to include for the pizza pitch-in.


The Club House is in the middle of the complex (it's the only single story building.)
It's a gated complex, when entering, please wait on the other side for the gate to close completely before advancing.
Press in the code #39 for the clubhouse.
(It's also posted on the intercom board)

Make use of any parking spot that's not a driveway directly in front of someones unit.

Take my Cell # down and bring it with you in case there are any issues:
Ryan: (778) 988-3425

Track Layout to be determined.

Cant wait to try out my new AWD. Does anyone have a 94mm gear set they could lend me? Mine only came in one short gear setting and I'd like to try out my skyline body (my gear set's in the mail)

Also, maybe we can have a "chat" thread for the GTGs for posts like this or is it ok to post here...or am I supposed to start one..or do we still look to CRC for this?

now thats what I'm talking about:

Steve's help got my car into consistent 11xx sec, felt like I had 2 cars that were extremely well behaved (until one board went "phhttt") and very happy with my finishes in the race events. Now if only I could reach that next level without having to cheat (ie use foams)

Looking forward to the next event where we'll hopefully all revert to box stock motors and rubber tires for some closer racing.

Again....awesome day.

Seriously though, I appreiciate all your setup help and hope next time both cars will run so you can give me ideas on the PN Mosler.

Hey FocusOne,

I've addressed your Chat thread question...
I liked the two separate threads the we used on CRC as it helped make sure the dates didn't get buried in the chat so thanx for the reminder!

I've now made two sticky Threads.
The Closed one will be any and all announcements, the other is fer chatting about what ever.

Enjoy!

Sounds like I missed a fun day. I spent the afternoon packing. I should be able to make the next one since we will be settling in by then.

GTG Practice/Race Results

Hey all.

It's still a work in progress, but at least it's something for now!

You can visit our website to view the practice & race results here:
www.BCMini-ZClub.com/Race_Results

Once I get a layout I like put together I'll be sure to save out all our older races that we have on file & make the Results page a little easier to navigate.

Enjoy!


*EDIT - It has come to my attention that there are some issues with the way the time layouts are on the race output.
It seems the top section is bang on, but the bottom section is a bit messed up in some places.
The Author of the software is now aware of this issue & will look into it.
Anyone that knows HTML & has some time is more than happy to look into the issue as well.
Poke me if your interested.
