Entries for next year are not open until September I believe.
Between now and then the series organisers can take in a lot of factors to decide on the best way forward for 2006.
Whilst I agree that priority should be given to longer term DSC members, but how about if interest and attendance falls off during the year, due to any number of factors - illness, injury, weather conditions, costs, etc, etc....., I believe that the organisers should be in a better position to set guidelines such as those you suggest once the race series is over.
It may be that it'll need an intake of experienced racers or outsiders to keep the series alive?
Many race series have not survived beyond their first year I'm told and we should allow this year's series to start and run before any entry decisions are made about next year's.
