If we only get 40 to 48 entrys in by Friday and if there is no seperate grids
will the 8 reserves or less get a credit note ?
If i do end up on the reserve list i will give the meeting a miss and i would like
a credit note for £150 ??
Or are payments taken from cards at the official closing date ?

First time out with DD, will have a 540 mile round trip, hope not to fall off as that would be a real bummer!!!!

I am used to the classics where they have pretty much binned qualifying, you get a practise, then grid position for the first race on championship points, there after your race finish is your grid position.

I am never able to do all rounds, thus tend to get mid field grid position for first race and work my way up. Good racing, a lot of fun, which is what it is all about.

Seems a lot of practise and not so much on the racing, but hope to get as much track time, and I am sure it wil all work itself out, and when the racing starts it will be all nice and friendly, well maybe not on the first corner of the first lap!!!!

I take my hat off to you Steve for showing such commitment. The first corner is the best, just get stuck in there and don't give a quarter or a third or anything. Your all lucky bastids I just wish I could be with you all again, Oh how I've missed the paddock.

I've always been pretty "whatever" when it's come to controversial decisions from NE, but this just takes the gigantic biscuit.

Whatever next?

Other race series ARE available.....let us know how you get on....
