without getting into a ****ging match mate...

it's our series as much as it's yours.

I was actually on the way to St Neots this weekend to buy a 620i Monster until i had a chat with Monty and Ian last night via email. Now i'm not. It was deal done for the monster on another site.

Just because people are not involved in DD right here right now, doesn't mean they won't be.

It's a DSC series, for DSC, and by DSC. I'm a DSC member and obviously an active poster on the board, therefore, i see it as my right to get involved.

I can also see why you have issues with this, which is why on the other thread i said 'scrap the DD section and take somewhere else'

How do we vote on the new tyre options when we can't talk about it between ourselves. We should have been given all the options in the tyre vote and told the implications. It's a naff voting choice a bit like the one done for 'should Cadwell be points scoring or not' you just can't win sometimes

Lord R,

May I humbly suggest that DD has upsides and downsides to the Club as a whole, hence the interest by non racers who are paid up DSC members.

If you require further elaboration please ask a member of your household to make contact via the jolly spiffing U2U feature,

Ray.

steve, with all due respect, if anyone is not actually racing in the series surely you can see that those that are, have a far greater vested interest and therefore input?

Why not put yourself forward as a riders rep Steve ?

sure fella.... of course.... maybe it wasn't the best phrase...

you have a greater interest... but that doesn't mean the rest of DSC should have or do have none at all.....

i was under the impression and logic that the riders rep should be a 'rider' in the series in my opinion.

Like said by Dickie, they have a greater interest.

However. I will put myself forward as if i remove the 'attitude' i think i would be able to offer a reasonable thought on certain things at times.

email on way.

I'm asking a question. I'm not cooking. I've got an interest in the series for a number of reasons...one being I wouldn't mind competing in it but, right now it doesn't fit in with my racing plans...doesn't mean I can't take an active part in any discussions, does it?

I understand the interest etc, but it all seems to be going a bit too far.

Its great to have outside interest, but it seems that there's too many cooks............

As mentioned above, it all got out of hand, and the buns were being thrown, the toys came out of the pram, and everyone got a bit heated. I'll put it back up, with some posts edited or removed. When I get chance today.

I don't know why my thread was deleted as I wasn't on much in recent weeks. I guess the question was ok but then as usual it went down hill from there.
My question ahs been answered and the answer was what I wanted to hear
