Beta Series Round 3 – 9th December

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.

SWORDS Round 6 Moved Location

Quick Urgent Update.

Due to the bad weather forcast for this weekend the location of the Race has been moved from Springlease to Torquay.

There is still camping available and practice on the Saturday will be practice from 12.00.

Please do tell everyone that the new location for racing, and this will count as you Springlease Round.

Also remember being the end of Season race it is also the Trophy and medal giving.

SWORDS Round 3 Re-Run at Springleaze & Round 5 at Plymouth

Just to remind everyone that Round 3 of SWORDS that was meant to be a Springleaze is being re-run on 24th July at Springleaze and this time the sun has been booked in.

Then on 14th August is Round 5 at Plymouth –  just a head’s up on this, on the same day is the Plymouth Mega Ride so to avoid missing booking in please give a little longer to get to the track. Mega Ride does not start till after booking in closes but there could be a lot more traffic on the roads.

A Great Loss to the Club

This week I have been informed that Tony Beaumont, Jack’s Father passed away this week.  He was a excellent mechanic – this can be seen but the way Jack’s cars got faster and won the Last Truggy Quarter Championship, a great member of the club – always helping out where ever possible whether it be marshaling or getting others going, a great friend – was known by everyone in the club and no one has ever had a bad word to say and he was always having a great laugh and most of all a great father – this can be seen by the way he has bought up Jack.

Tony you made a huge impact on the club and all it’s members and you will be missed by us all. Sympathies go out to the rest of the family from us all.

Tony
