That would be idea. Doesn't need to be overly formal but just having people there who know (which as there are competitors there should always be the case)
I am on my mobile and trying to recall parts of the regs I have read and have some questions:
Speed Series Questions:
Car: what extras are essential?
Timing Strut (looks okay to mount off bottom of nose cone but unsure of height width and location relative to - ground I assume?)
Cut offs?
Certain brand tyres or only certain classes?
Mechanical extras from say 'factory' standard?
Me: Licence (£40 a year application and a medical declaration by the looks of it)
Kit: I have a helmet that meets the standard, looks like I NEED the full kit Inc gloves and shoes?
I think the car questions are easiest answered in person at an event - strongly support the above.
