Title: Track conditions BMCC Nudgee
Post by: popeye on March 20, 2011, 01:26:58 pm
Just a quick querry on what people thought of the track last race weekend, to me it seemed to hold the moisture a bit better than it has been and the dirt seemed to be ok bar a bit of foran matter in it, do you think we need to put more dirt on the jumps and build them back up or not? any feed back would be great............... ;D

General comments are that it was very good. I personally thought it was great as it was loamy and a couple of lines were appearing in corners instead of the usual one line that the track usually has. I'm all for bigger jumps but find it hard to say how about you do this or that as I am yet to lend a hand.

Yes it was a pleasure to race on all day and seemed to bed it well.
Give yourself a pat on the back team on a job well done.

Popeye,
it was bloody beautiful all day long. any stones that turned up in the soil weren't a problem.
traction and dust control were good all day.
as for building the jumps up,
i'm all for it too but we need to keep in mind there are a few older guys/ladies/novices/etc in the club that are a good backbone for our club.
with that in mind, i'd say leave them as they are.
it's a dinky little track with dinky little jumps & bumps but it's kinda cool at the same time.
and we need to keep the sweeper in front of the pits. thats the best corner ever! ;)
your doing a good thing mate :)

I own and run a Chemical manufacturing business at geebung where we make a "Envro Friendly" dust suppressant for the larger road construction people, so if someone from the club wants to give me a call, I will gladly donate a quantity to add to the water truck if  track conditions are getting too dusty. 0417 572113.
