November Meeting Once again a fabulous turn out with just over 100 entries evenly spread across the classes.
Winter series. A 3 round series will be held on Sunday 7th & 28th December then the 18th January 2009 with the regulations being the same as the 2009 regs. As a result of changes in the regs I hope that we attract a few more direct drive Tkms, a few more Prokarts in the Clubman class whilst keeping up the entries in the other classes. A set of tyres will be up for grabs for the series winner in each class.
Keep it coming " FREE TYRES"
AND
:The three winter series meetings will use 3 different circuit layouts. 7th December - no Dunlop chicane but including the chicane in front of the grid. 28th December - usual circuit as used throughout the year. 18th January - no Horseshoe but including front chicane."
MSA Racing in 2009 Bob Pope from Langbaurgh / Teesside Karting has decided to introduce MSA kart racing at the Middlesbrough circuit on the third Sunday each month. Back in the 1980’s and early 90’s it was a hugely successful karting circuit. Noise complaints from local residents resulted in its closure. It is a wide, fast circuit being a very different drive to Warden Law. I wish Bob every success with this initiative and I hope that he can generate the interest and grids of the 80’s. T&W Kart Club will continue to organise its own Championship on the first Sunday each month which will be non MSA. Clearly the current format is a success and will continue with very little change ..
The Prokarts will be run as one race but will be split into Elite and Clubman (how about 175 kg for Elite drivers and 185 kg for Clubman?). Your feedback to finalise the above class weights would be appreciated. Please email your thoughts to ian@kartingnortheast.com.
