Plymouth is Going Digital

Mylaps RC4 Digital DecoderPlymouth is going digital 🙂

Yes finally after years of saving, donations and support we are going to a digital transponder system. This will mean that those of you that want or have got digital transponders will now be able to use them.

However please note that the only transponders that work with the RC4 Decoder are the red AMB/Mylaps RC transponders – MRT transponders will not work, however BBK software do an upgrade/trade in service to go from MRT to MyLaps Transponders.

Merry Xmas and a Happy New Year

Hi All,

May I just wish everyone, on half of the committee, a Very Merry Christmas and Nappy New year.

This year has had it’s up (eg. 3 hour endurance and Beta Series) and downs (bad weather causing racing to be cancelled or low numbers) but now that can all be left behind and we can look forward to a year of good racing and further special events including the return of Caravan racing.

Take Care and have a great time, and see you all in the new year.

Hi All,

Just a quick note to let you all know that Round 3 of the Beta Series that is scheduled to be run at LRC on 9th December has been moved back to Plymouth due to technical issues.

This does mean however that the electric racing this weekend will be cancelled.

Also for those that are available to help there is a Maintenance Session on Saturday 8th December from 1.30pm to 3.30pm – any help with this would be much appreciated.

Tinsel Race & Annual Trophy Giving

Tinsel RaceHi All,

After a couple of inquiries about a Tinsel race we have decided to hold it on Sunday December 16th.

The race day will be a normal day but with cars decorated with various Christmas Decorations, there will be prices for the best three turned out cars.

So start getting your thinking caps on and come up with so great cars.

Also in the Lunch break we will be handing out the trophies that have been won from the years racing.

See you all there so you can collect your winnings.

Website Maintenance

Hi All,

Apologises for the website not working for the last few days, it was down for some maintenance. The work took longer than planned as some of the PHP coding on the site went wrong.

Please do look around the site and if you find something not working please do let the committee know.

Hi All,
