Just for information.
We have shut the NERCS club down as of this week, and will not open again until the Government gives the OK to socialise again.
Hopefully we will be back in action before our round on 12th July, but that depends on situation at that time.
Gerry

Hello all Entrants
It is with great regret that John and I have decided to postpone the Mac Pinches Thirties Championship proxy given the world-wide Covid-19 crisis. We have been in touch with the round organisers in the UK and there are serious doubts that those at the two clubs, Tyneside and NERCS, will be able to run their rounds. For reasons I won’t go into here I won’t be able to run my round either and Andi Rowland agrees we should defer the proxy until things settle down at some point in the future.
We know you will be disappointed by this and will have been working hard on building your cars. However in the light of the rapidly escalating situation in the UK and North America we believe its the right action to take.
Keep safe.
Best Wishes
David and John

Thanks David and John, I totally understand your decision. But we can still post photos of our builds, they can't take that away from us! At least, I am pretty sure they can't. Best wishes to everyone. -Max

Just to let you know that we have our fingers firmly crossed that we will be allowed to re-start at NERCS in August.

Are there any thoughts about running this in 2021?
NERCS are back up and running on 6th August, with strict social distancing measures in place.

Hello Gerry
I have discussed this with John but I doubt very much that we will attempt to run the proxy this year so its likely to be 2021 before its underway.
Best Wishes
David

Hi Gents,
I hope you all had a good Christmas and will have a Happy New Year. My cars for this event are now 98% complete, so let's hope that it can be run this year.
Will the existing entry list be carried forward for the revived event, or will there have to be a fresh application? If the former, please note that my Delage entry seems to have vanished from the list, although it was present in the previous list. It is ready to go and has not been withdrawn!
Cheers,
Keith Rolleston

Hello Keith
Happy New Year. Given the continuing uncertainty with the pandemic its not possible to say when we might revive the proxy. If and when we do I think we will want everyone to confirm their interest and entries afresh as so much time has elapsed since we launched the event.
Best wishes
David

Hello Keith
Sorry no news. I doubt anything further will happen this year partly because I am in the middle of a house move and therefore don't have anytime to devote to slot cars or organising an event and partly because organising anything internationally at the moment will be very difficult.
Best Wishes
David

Thanks David. Good luck with the house move. I am about to embark on the same journey. The garage/workshop will be a nightmare but I hope to find all the little bits I have dropped over the past fifteen years.

That's all very well Keith, but when you find these bits and pieces, will you remember what they are and where they go.....?
Peter.
