Just give me ideas of what you want and ill get on with it. Joe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CC12345678910 Posted February 16, 2011 Report Share Posted February 16, 2011 (edited) Yeah I'm gonna come along again Are you getting scrap cars again? If so would it possible to re-enforce the roofs somehow so they don't sink in the middle again. Mabye a wooden platform ratchet strapped to the roof to give a grippy, more stable surface?? EDIT: Deffo cut the grass as well mate, short as possible Edited February 16, 2011 by CC12345678910 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gu trials Posted February 16, 2011 Report Share Posted February 16, 2011 (edited) try to just get the shells of the cars aswell, so they will be more stable for the smaller riders edit: and put wooden boards where the windows go Edited February 16, 2011 by gu trials Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Krafty_pk Posted February 21, 2011 Author Report Share Posted February 21, 2011 Cheers guys, and yeah we will have cars again, and well look at stiffening things up =), Weve got welding kit here, so can always wack some steel tubing in the roof and well board the windows up as well as possible. And yeah anyone willing to help with designs, ideas or physical work, p.m me and ill give you my number Got a shed load of pics from last year too, so for those that didnt come ill upload them so you can see what we are going for =) Hoping to get some form of sponsor to arrange a competition with prizes so keep your eyes out =) Joe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Krafty_pk Posted February 28, 2011 Author Report Share Posted February 28, 2011 Hello again, ive just been digging through the paper work from last year and ive found eveyones email address that came last year, so i shall me sending you an email today in the hope that you will all be interested in propping down again =) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom Rigg Posted February 28, 2011 Report Share Posted February 28, 2011 Sounds good Joe! I'll put the date in my diary, I'm just up the road in Lancaster so if you need a hand with building a few things I can give up an evening or whatever! The grass wasn't too much of a problem really, but I'm not going to complain if it's shorter! Might be worth putting some bigger objects in the middle of everything instead of at the back edge. But the set up last time catered well for all the riders I thought. See you all there. Tom. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know personally I couldn't down fluids fast enough (didn't help the mountain rescue ran over my bottle & made a litre of juice explode onto the floor ) and gary (gage mann) got heatstroke last year. so bear in mind your gonna need a fair amount. And is it ok if I bring the disclaimer and pay on the day?? EDIT: and where would I hand it in?? when I sign in i guess.
