6. WEAM Team Erwin Post/André van der Zee/Hans Lanting Lancia Beta Monte Carlo

Friesland ligt toch (nog) in Nederland?

Heren,

Geldt voor de chassis dat alleen het merk vrij is of ben je ook vrij om er zelf één te maken?
Zou weleens een uitdaging zijn voor een ieder, temeer daar er op carosseriegebied ook al het nodige gemaakt en gegoten wordt.
Een combinatie van bestaande en eigengemaakte onderdelen geeft natuurlijk weer een extra dimensie. Kijken hoe vindingrijk een ieder weer is.
Persoonlijk lijkt het me fantastisch.
Zijn jullie er klaar voor? Ik wel! (maak ik dan één voor het Weam Team? Time will tell!)

Johan

Heren,

over welk type's BMW praten we eigenlijk?
Op de foto staat helemaal links achterin ook een oranje M1 . Is die ook toegestaan dan?

Johan

merk is wel vrij.

Inderdaad alles uit de genoemde periode is toegestaan, dus ook M1's

Leuk dat jullie mee!

Maar de tijd ontbreekt mij om te gaan bouwen
Mischien als instapper bij een team

Een pak van mijn hart.
Toch is de race Nederland - België eigenlijk Fryslân - België waarbij we maar zullen toegestaan dat er een paar Hollanders meerijden. Die Hollanders mogen dan of met de Friezen of met de Belgen meedoen. Eenvoudige keuze lijkt me. Holland is toch dat volgebouwde stuk grond dat tussen het Heitelân en België in ligt?
Kan Willem meteen al die rood wit blauwe vlaggetjes vervangen door de Belgische driekleur of de Fryske Pompebledden.
Zucht..............dream on, dream on.

wat voor gert geld voor een belgie team geld ook voor mij
zou graag instappen in een nederlands team

Dear all,

Team Sideways would like to join the Gr.5 race.

Onno Griepink & Sergiu Hauer driving the FORD ZAKSPEED CAPRI.
The Body is allready painted, and finished by RFH member/engineer Nick de Wachter.

Echter wat is een C3 motor???



Greetings,

Onno Sideways.

Ps; Nick I need the frontshield streamer, missing in the kit, do you have one?

Kollegae slotracers,

Het is jammer dat er tot op heden niemand het aandurft om ook eens een wedstrijd te organiseren waarbij ook het chassis zelf gefabriceerd mag worden.
Vanuit kostenoogpunt is het niets vergeleken bij de tot in het extreme doorgetrokken fabriceren van o.a. resin carosserieën en zeker niet duurder (ik denk goedkoper) dan de huidige chassis
Het kost idd ook weer tijd en energie, maar de één steekt het liever in het maken van het chassis en de ander in het maken van een carosserie (nog nooit mijn favoriete onderdeel geweest).
Het geeft m.i. een nieuwe dimensie aan het slotracen.

Zijn er überhaupt mensen die zoiets eens willen proberen?

Misschien dan zelf maar eens wat organiseren, waarbij de bouw van het chassis vrij gegeven of voorgeschreven wordt.
Heb daar wel een paar ideeën over, maar of dat op onze eigen baan wordt is dan de vraag (Alsberg?).

Ik hoop op enige reaktie's.

Johan

only belgians and dutch---
now thats not fair!!!!!
I wanna too!!!!

anybody wish to adopt an angloafroGerman slotter??

Hey Fola,

under which flagg will you race?


Cheers,
de Massiven

Wow! We didn't think we'd get this much respons
We're contemplating a few ideas with our Belgium co-organisers, we'll let you know asap
Technical rules have been updated, check top article at Rules and Regulations

Under the joys of a lot of gin several options were explored by the Belgian co-organisers. Trying to sqeeze everyone in, we came up with the following set-up:

It's still Saturday the 1st of December, a one-day event. But after receiving interests from unexpected angles, we came up with a 4/4/4 solution. That means:

4 Belgian Teams
4 Dutch Teams
4 Outside-entries (So Fola, quick quick before the Germans come )

Dutch:
1. RFH 1
2. RFH 2
3. Fox Racing
4. Weamteam

Belgium (full, names will be announced later):
1. Belgium Team 1
2. Belgium Team 2
3. Belgium Team 3
4. Belgium Team 4

Out-siders (open, free for any team or country):
1. French Team 1
2. ???
3. ???
4. ???

Subscribe via this thread. Although some Dutch en Belgian teams are full, there are still a few driver spots available.

For those unfamiliar with the C3 engine, check this link: http://www.freezslot.be/Dutch/Showroom/search.php?merk=ALL&ref=ALL&key=C3

Contridicting the first set of rules, there will be no motor or tire handout. Everyone will be using their own motor and rubber, advised rubber/sponge is 45 shore or black magic.
Gear ratio is also free. this has been updated in the rules.

So guys, find some big wheels and pedal to the metal!

Hello Guys

Concerning the upcoming Group 5 race in Alsdorf on Dec 1st aka the "Big Wheels Race" aka Belgium vs Holland vs Germany vs Nigeria

Great initiative, this is going to be a nice race I'm sure.....specially as this time I dont have to build a car...I'm "just a driver , actually that goes for my whole team
But then again, Willem and Gabriel have been busy in Alsdorf updating the racecomputers and hardware, latest Bepfe system, new race module, rewiring the lapcounter etc etc... the works.

But after reading all the post and concidering the fact that "we" the LMC crew have been asked to handle communications with Titanic Bowling I do have some simple questions

• Who is actually responsible for organising this race?
  
• What is the entry fee for this race
  
  and on a less important note, but maybe of interest to the readers/participants....
  
  
• Where can one find the updated rules for this race?
  

Well T,

The people organising this event are:
Hubert Jacob, TC and entree fee collector
Emily and Raymond van Campenhout, race director
Marc Huys, Coordinator

Entry fee has been set at 35 Euros PER TEAM, to be payed during TC at Hubert Jacobs

hi guys.... (GAL),
it's Stefan with an F.....

Hello teams,

this short message to find out if we need to bring any motors with us to the race, or does everybody has C3 motors? Freezslot is not that far from here, so we could bring them along...

CU @ the race

Raymond

What about weights/Ballast?? The rules®s only have info regarding the body weight and the total weight....
or did I miss something ? can one add ballast at all (as is normal) should one happen to be too light??

Does any one have any tips on interior build with the Inliner setup? the dang engine is in the way :-(

Any Progress Pixs or are you all racing "Old" cars that have been seen/raced before ?

What will you be racing?? What is your choice of chassis?? and how does an inliner compare to a sidewinder??

How about posting a few pix of your finished cars / wip's so that we can all see what the starting grid will look like ;-)

Here, i'll set an example.... here are pix of our finished car.......



PSYKE!!!

Fola,

Of course you can add ballast, but why would you want to do so? the capri body is just about right as far as weight is concerned... and the chassis are all about at the same weight, between 130 and 140 grams for the complete chassis less the body

Does any one have any tips on interior build with the Inliner setup? the dang engine is in the way :-(

As interior there are plenty of choices in the DiSo range, there is even one especially for Gr2-5, with only rhe front part detailed, and the rear flat

Any Progress Pixs or are you all racing "Old" cars that have been deen before ?

Sorry no pictures yet, the car is actually being painted

What will you be racing?? What is your choice of chassis?? and how does an inliner compare to a sidewinder??

Most popular chassis in Belgium is the Schöler in-line with brass bottomplate. The chassis is of course rather "basic" compared to the side-winder chassis actually running under the FIA GT bodies....but it is fun to drive! Over here they are faster than the FIA-GT's on the easy tracks and about as fast on the more technical tracks.

How about posting a few pix of your finished cars / wip's so that we can all see what the starting grid will look like ;-)

Good idea, once it's painted, I'll post an image

Here, i'll set an example.... here are pix of our finished car.......

looks good, it almost looks like a racecar

Sure hope this helps a bit... Any more questions, shoot...!

Thanks for getting back 2 me.....
1 more question. Since I have never built or driven a 1/24th inliner,
I have no idea of how they perform.
How do they compare to our GT cars?? Faster? Slower?

is comparible with the stiffest setup of a 'normal' chassis
mostly a bit loose at the rear, cause of the chassis stiffness.
The downsides on the chassis is the lack of setup changes one could make and the limited choice of gear ratios.

But since 'the spy' told me you were happy the bodymounts are free, I think you'll be able to get it running
