29th Jan 2012: TDC Multi-Venue Autotest Mondello

Sounds like it is going to be open and flowing so I'm sticking with the 309 Smile

Looks like it will be a great event and I for one am really getting really excited about tackling the track/Rallycross routes including the very exciting Ambulance lane...

I think the focus is now on sign-on. The name of the game is to 'KNOW YOU'RE NUMBER'. And for those who have no web access, all the driver numbers will be posted on the way up to sign-on.
Please don't arrive to sign-on without your number, as this will dramatically slow the process.

Guys quick question, I'm in the group that will start the day at test 6. I know I need to go through test 5 to test 6 but what happens after each lap? If I have to get a new timecard after test 5 how do I get back out to test 6 for my next lap without having to jump ahead of everyone waiting to do test 5?

Sorry if this is a stupid question......

J, All will be explained at drivers briefing.

I have just been informed by Mondello that the canteen will not be open for lunch, the chef pulled out at the last minute. Apologies for this. I hope many of you read this tonight so that ye can organise lunch for tomorrow.
There's still going to be a lunch halt at 1pm - 1:45pm.

Many many thanks to everyone involved with this event, I would especially like to thank the marshal's / timekeeper's who stood in the rain all day, these events would not happen without you and it's much appreciated. Thanks for a fun day:)

Great event again. Well done to all involved organising. Event ran very smoothly despite the large entry and bad weather. Thanks to all the marshalls.

Excellent event, thanks to all the marshalls for standing out in the rain all day!

quote from a grateful driver.

Tim

well done 2 all good aevent

Really enjoyed the event.

Well done to Mark, Phelix, Patricia, Timmy and all the Marshalls & Timekeepers who stood out in the horrible weather.

I really enjoyed this event.It was very easy on the car with no bumpy bits and I thought it was very well organised and ran very smoothly despite the very large entry,Thanks to all the people involved.looking foward to the next event. Very Happy

All I can do is add my thanks to all the organisers, officials and marshals. The number and size of the tests meant extra bodies were needed to oversee them. A huge task to find so many waterproof conscripts.

Thanks again

Stephen

Super event as usual from TDC, that's how you run a multivenue autotest. Many thanks to Mark, all the marshals, timekeepers and results crew, running over 80 drivers through 18 tests and being done by 4pm is some achievement.

Many thanks for the positive feedback. This event is the culmination of effort from numerous TDC members. I’d like to say a big thank you to Trish Denning for taking on the job of the entries secretary. Dealing with 90 entries takes up a lot of your free time. It was very much appreciated.
As always, the results team of Timmy Faulkner and Paul Phelan gave a solid performance. 1600 odd tests were completed on the day, and to give results that were not only accurate, but uncontested is some achievement. Big thank you!!!
To all the marshals who braved the terrible weather all day, thank you. I could write a list of everybody involved, but I’m sure I’d forget somebody. The size of the event meant a large number of marshals were required, which thankfully we were able to conscribe. For those of you who were conscripted on the day, it was a great help. I think TDC will be organising an end of year raffle to all marshals who helped out throughout the year, with some very nice prizes.
The club would like to thank Mondello Park for the use of their circuit. Without their support and cooperation, there would be no event. Many thanks.
And lastly, I’d like to thank the competitors for behaving themselves all day;-p. Even given the slippery conditions there were very few locations where competitors had had an overshoot. On the day, it could’ve been very easy to carve up the place, and I’m happy to report that the grounds were left in good condition.

Until next year,

Mark
