Open to discussion, but I am worried at the number of dedicated track cars now attending this event and the fact that as these cars are just toys and concerns for their mechanical well-being take a backseat over out'n'out fun, that there could be a tendency to hog the track for long periods. How does everyone feel about a 'per session lap limit' to ensure fair access to all ? As a suggestion, perhaps 20 laps a session ???

Is there any way that each car has a time limit, say 10mins, before they have to come in?
Maybe be flagged when the time is up?

I myself only used to do 6 hot laps when taking passengers out and 10/15 when fully enjoying myself. After this time I though it wise to give the car a break and other people the chance to have there fun, I often gauged this on the track entrance queue.
I would of thought 20 hot laps is more than adequate and this can be easily be worked out in to a time limit to make it more manageable, 10 mins is not long enough to cover this but 25 mins or 20 laps would be more like IMO

With five cars on track and an average lap taking IRO 1 minute, a 15 minute limit would result in about 20 people getting a session per hour. Obviously 20 minute sessions would reduce that to 15 runs. Later in the day when things usually quieten down we could open it as a free-for-all as normal.

Yer not kidding - its gonna be ace
The only thing im worried about is the suspension on my car, its ace for tracks like Elvington coz it just sticks like glue but its the bumps and holes that are gonna be a problem and the speed hump like bit
Stickys pug went round on 2-3 wheels (felt ace
) but also went over the humps really well and it was a comfy ride. Im gonna feel every bump in mine and maybe do some damage if i thrash it
