HEARTBREAKER
Just a quick update to let all drivers and
spectators know that the Competitors Gate will open at 10am at Heartbreaker
& the Spectators Gates will open at 10.30am.
This is an ideal opportunity to remind all drivers that if you are competing
at Heartbreaker on Sunday 14th February the start time is 1.30pm!
We are opening the Competitors Gate at 10am to give you all plenty of time
to arrive, park, sign-in, licence if necessary and get scrutineered. The
first race will be for the 2ltr National Bangers and will be rolling out
onto the track at 1.20pm with the Rolling Lap starting at 1.30pm exactly.
The more races you want to be in the earlier you need to be ready so the BIG
ASK IS PLEASE ARRIVE ASAP!
Last year many drivers took the advice and
come start time we had a full grid of cars and even had to turn some away
from the first heat and add an extra heat which is far better than the other
way round for everybody.
A reminder also that if you are intending on racing at Heartbreaker if you
haven't booked-in already please do so ASAP.
If you are INCARACE registered contact 0121-357-0007 and follow the answer
phone messages instructions or by e-mail:-
bookin@incarace.co.uk
If you are licensed with any other ORCi promotion please book-in through
them as you normally would.
On the subject of licensing:- You MUST have your new 2010 ORCi National
Banger Licence to race at Heartbreaker. If you haven't got one there are
several options available:-
1. Contact the INCARACE Office on 0121-357-7328 and ask to be sent a Licence
Application Form. Fill it in at home and bring it on the day along with two
passport photos please.
2. Pay for a Full ORCi National Banger Licence on the day. The cost of the
licence is £65 (Cash ONLY!) & please bring two passport size photos with
you.
3. Pay for a Temporary Licence on the day, which entitles you to race for 1
meeting ONLY. These cost £20 (Cash ONLY) per driver.
Both options 2 & 3 take time to complete the forms on the day so you need to
allow for this as there is always a queue for licensing so again COME EARLY
to avoid delays.
Hope to see everybody there bright and early.

Have you got the I Factor?
In an attempt to provide the
more grass roots and basic of our formulas and visiting formulas more racing
on our tracks in 2010, we are announcing a series of events at both
Birmingham Wheels and Northampton where we will be running quick fire races,
all non contact with five, six and sometimes seven formulas racing on the
same night.
It really will be action all of the way for both spectators and fans, with a
really quick turnaround on races, no waiting for stragglers in the pits if
a car isnt ready, then unfortunately it will be shut out. Trophies will be
provided for the 1st three in the finals.
There are eight events altogether, including the I Factor Finals night which
will be at Birmingham Wheels on Saturday 13th November 2010, with
Championship races for all formulas based on the points scored in all of the
I Factor Race Events throughout the year.
All people, including the driver will pay to come into each of these
meetings, but as has been murmured in the press and on the terraces, these
are not Pay to Race events as such, i.e. there will not be a race fee to pay
each time you enter.
The I Factor Race Events will start at the earlier than normal time of 6pm.
There will be the normal paid Practice available between 2.30pm and 5pm, and
then pre-meeting practice from 5.15 to 5.45pm, all ready then for a prompt
6.00pm start.

NEW POINTS SYSTEM FOR 2010
We are re-organising the way our Points Charts work for 2010.
Firstly we are adopting the points scoring system from Spedeworth which is
as follows :
Heats 1st place 8 points, 2nd place 7 points......... 8th place 1
point
Finals score double 16-14-12-10-8-6-4-2
Points are scored in ALL RACES, irrespective of starting positions, grades
etc.
Points run to the final SATURDAY in each month and come into force on the
following Saturday, which will be the first Saturday in the month.
Points for any meetings run between the last Saturday in the month and the
first Saturday of the following month, will count for the next points chart.
Where grades are applicable, these will be calculated on points scored, with
a careful eye being kept on previous history, i.e A superstar cannot drop
below blue grade irrespective of points gained.
The Points charts for Stock Rods, Lightning Rods and National Bangers will
run from WORLD FINAL to WORLD FINAL, i.e they will be zeroed at the World
Final and then start again. All other formulas will run for the calendar
year from 1st Jan to 31st December
Grades for the beginning of the 2010 season will be as from the Final Points
chart of 2009.
When the first points chart of 2010 is produced (i.e. after the last
Saturday of March), Stock Rods, Lightning Rods and National Bangers will
have points added for any meetings from 2009 that were run after the
respective World Finals.
05 January 2010
LIGHTNING RODS & STOCK RODS Points Championship

We are very pleased to announce that The winner of the 2010 National points

2.0 Hot Rod.
A top competative car will be supplied, accomodation supplied for driver
plus one. You will have to find your own flight money and damage money.
Damage will be charged at trade price as it is done in house.
