Included are staff to set-up and run the event, computerised scoring, PA
equipment for race commentary and all necessary equipment.
We require empty indoor space and 500W of mains power.
The game may start in the minds of players as "just a bit of
fun" but usually turns into serious sport. Cabaret Casino have selected and
developed equipment to ensure the game is as fair as possible. A fact
greatly appreciated by players who put their heart and sole into the
competition.
How is a fair game achieved? The scoring system and rules are a big factor
but the design of the track is also important.
Our 8-lane competition tracks are specially built to club
racing specifications. Free from car de-railing bumps and intermittent power
supply faults common with popular makes of track. Sharp bends can be very
frustrating for novice drivers as the cars will leave the track easily. Our
tracks have gentle turns even on the inside of an eight-lane circuit. Only
specially built tracks can offer this. Figure eight design permits equal
lane length.
Players will enjoy competition controllers featuring
smooth braking and acceleration. Cabaret Casino have a team of skilled staff
to run this event. A Race Director equipped with P.A. radio microphone and the
computerized scoring system can make sure the players get the most out of
the event. We have a number of formats to suit the situation; structured
games, informal parties or team building.
How many people can take part?
To date our smallest group size is 6. We
recommend larger groups. Players enjoy a break from the intensive play and
concentration. More players gives greater atmosphere, time to relax and chat,
drink, eat etc.
On a practical note more players reduces the
price per head.
20- 65 is the ideal group size. With larger
groups additional entertainment is recommended, maybe more tracks or just other
things, Fun casino, simulator machines, table football, disco, band etc.
What do Cabaret Casino staff do?
We bring all equipment and set-up in a suitable venue.
Setting-up time is usually under 1hr, although an extra 1hr is
generally advisable for contingency. Packing away takes about 40min. Equipment
will fit in a lift so events can be held on any floor. If flights of stairs are
unavoidable prior notice is appreciated. Extra staff are sometimes necessary to
carry the equipment.
Great track, cars and computerised scoring is
just the start. There is a very important job to make the event run well. I call
the job "Race Director"
This is the job brief: Referee the game, using the public
address system and radio microphone to address the crowd with race commentary,
jokes etc. Organise the structure of the game using the computerised scoring.
Make sure the rules are clear and policed.
How do we organise the event?
The Race Director uses experience and a
structured competition to get the most from the event.
The exact running details will depend on many things. Size of
group, age of group, other entertainment or distractions running at the same
time in the same area. A simple game format is best if distractions are many, or
a more challenging match if the concentration of players can be expected.
With a plan and the computerised scoring the Race
Director is ready to make the most of the event.
How long does the event last?
You never really know who will refuse to play and who will play
for six hours non-stop if allowed. Fortunately most people fit between these
extremes.
If slot-racing is the only entertainment, a group of 20-40
will play enthusiastically for 1-2 hours. A game plan giving individuals 8
qualifying heats, followed by the top 8 drivers going through to a final set of
8 heats works well. This is one of the many game styles our bespoke computerised
scoring greatly simplifies. The race director will choose the best option on the
day.
Contractually we normally quote for up to three
hours of game play. We are always happy to quote for extended running time.
