Hi to 2 new racers BRC__POrra and BRC_ThiMello , I have 3 race times for you 2 but you need at least 8 to get on the ladder.

thx all for racing this week. LC


2003  News Item 017  20th April : I have uploaded most of the extreme tracks now to my web site. This upgrade is due to the increase in space I have now on my server, www.fasthosts.co.uk. I now have 1gb of space at no extra cost. Can I say thx to Fasthosts for the good service and excellent site stats. I am on the Home Pro account with them with Matrixstats and the email virus scanner. Currently I have used up approx 450meg of space. I am planning to do the same with the Lego Extreme Tracks ( 200meg ) and the Cars ( 100meg )  but will select the better ones. You are allowed to link to these files from your web site without permission as I have do not have to pay for the bandwidth but these may not download at your top speed.

2003  News Item 016  9th April :  New Re-Volt site by hilaire9   "hil's home page"

2003  News Item 015  8th April :  new Re-Volt site " RMD Clan Site "


2003  News Item 014  4th April : Updated Rules for Ladder Racing

In part due to a set of races recently and an email I have updated the rules for the Ladder. The new rules apply to the custom ladder as well.
I rearranged section 2 in the rules with three main subsections to it, Race Setup, Starting Races and During Races.
These rules are not just for the benefit of the ladder but for others who want to race with little distraction.
I have noticed the some people chat too much during races and can be very distraction to other people.

I would like to stress also that if you do not want to finish a track then park your car far from the racing line especially on the narrower tracks and only say "I Skip" when you do so. Also do this at the end of the race or when the host or other says "your name ?".

thx for your co-operation.

2003  News Item 013  2nd April : 1 New Track :-

2nd April
A4
Vasja1st
520m 1.24mb
1:10 8/10

Commments on track :-
If you like racing on grass then this is your track. There are lots of turn here on the modified Stunt Track. Basic in design with no going into the figure of 8 part. Don't go too fast over the ramps either as you will end up driving into the fence!! Overall a basic but hard track to master, me I liked it a lot.


2003  News Item 012  31st March : 2 New Tracks :-

31st March 31st March
Lego Ex Extreme
1:18mins 1:20mins
Space Station Plant XXI
TM&M RiffRaff
991m 760kb 1132m 1.25mb

Commments on tracks :-
Space Station -- I like this track a lot even though its quite long. There are many fast and tricky turns and only one straight part. Overall Good.  8/10

Plant XXI -- Another Pod type track similar to that of Newk in terms of track and flow. Better for faster cars as the turns are mostly long with few tight turns. A keeper for your fast custom cars.  6/10
