2nd Entrants cars has arrived, many thanks to Fiery 1 from New Zealand.

We have just 8 days left to Register the Cars.

[Graham]

I have updated the entry list, we have now 2 vacant car places if anyone wants to put a late entry in.

Payment sent... it's deadline day for payments folks

 Good morning

The Final list of entrants has been updated, we will have 16 entrants with 34 cars running in the proxy.

Because of the circumstances resulting from the last proxy, the additional expenses of using a higher cost courier service with the additional protective packaging had not been factored into the entry fees. Hopefully we will save on a couple of the rounds which will be run locally to each other. But it does mean that there will not be any winners medals issued at the end of the series and the cost of UK car returns may be subject to a charge, but we will see what happens with the series as this will be a learning curve for me.

 Good Morning,

We have 20 days left to receive the cars

Update
Cars must be received by 1st April
Non Conforming cars will be returned for correcting before we start the proxy on 1st May

In particular please ensure that you have checked the tyre thickness, and widths across the axles/wheels and that track clearance is correct, I will be measuring them. Tyres/Wheels axle widths will not be accepted which are wider than the measurement of the width of the bodies.

[Graham]

The first non-conforming car arrived yesterday, rear tyres 11mm thick.  Luckily the tyres were not glued so I have asked the owner to send me a pair of 10mm ones to replace them. 

Please check your cars before sending them

[Graham]

Entrant List Status updated, those cars not currently complying with the rules are designated with a *asterick. Hopefully they will be corrected before we start the event.

[Graham]

The non compliant cars I received so far have now passed, I am hoping the remaining ones when received will all be good ??
We had one car with 11mm thick tyres (max 10mm)
One car with track compliance of 1.0mm when it should be 1.5mm.
And another car with rear wheel width outside body width.

So please check your cars before sending.
