Apologies that you didn't read the announcement correctly - the trackday is organised by MSV this year, so I'm sure they're more than capable of ensuring the event goes ahead!
This is the exact reason why we spoke to MSV; having no experience of organising a trackday myself, I wanted it to go to someone who would organise the event on our behalf rather than taking on both the burden and liability for the club so that we did not have a repeat of last year (as you say above).
So this is what the membership wanted and this is what they are getting!
It's a shame that you can't make it as it's shaping up to be a great day on a fantastic track!


I'd rather die peacefully in my sleep like my Grandfather,

I got my pass-out as it's my birthday a few days before, and I may even bring a birthday cake!!
