News re a possible venue, from Ed. in Plymouth

One potential venue is the Bedford Raceway as a combined event with the Greenpower regional on Sunday September 20th 2009, on a separate circuit not being used by Greenpower on the day. Recently, their sponsor for that day withdrew, but Greenpower are determinedly seeking an alternative sponsor for ...

Are Hybrids allowed... + more news soon, honest, from Ed.

Thanks RetepSnikrep, for the timely reminder.... I apologise for forgetting to think of type eligibility when I slung together my first attempt at a draft set of rules. My unthinking assumption would be to include anything that even vaguely advanced the carbon reduction / EV cause, let alone shining...

Vehicle Cllasses for BVS Electrathon 2009, by Ed. in Plymout

I was hoping we could all bring whatever we had, and maybe the "Hilarious-Handicapping" would show the varying virtues of all the individual machines, whether home-brewed, factory pre-production prototype, or ready-made. My initial selfish idea was some kind of circuit-race, but I soon rea...

BVS Electrathon 2009

See? I've stopped putting things like question marks, and "Potential" or "Possible next to "BVS Electrathon 2009" in the title..... I'm hooked, (for me sins) Yes, I kinda became enchanted by the irresistible logic, dulcet tones, and positive thinking from Mary and Paul, and ...

Presently best location prospect, Electrathon 2009?

Under the proviso that this is still hypothetical at present..... It looks as if the idea of asking Greenpower if we may run an Electrathon on an unused circuit (there are four circuits at the venue), in conjunction with their event at Bedford Raceway on September 20th 2009 may be the most likely to...

Tour De Presteigne 2009, and BVS AGM... from Ed. in Plymouth

Oh, dear, brain-fade again (at least I can blame the anaesthetic for a bit longer.....) I have just read the excellent BVR 33/3 on-line. I suddenly noticed the BVS AGM is on Sat. 090509 Yup, the same day as the first day of the Tour De Presteigne Oh, well maybe some hardy BVS souls will attend BOTH ...
