I like Simple too, but it never is..... Especialy when you have a business to run on a saturday and are told our championship races are sunday races.... then have to plan a saturday off to sit in the paddock waving willies for the TV cameras.
I have tried to contact NE as to why we are expected to be there on a saturday and no answer to their Phone all day, No replys to e mails.....
Sounds familiar because it is paul.

Yea so did I till I got an e mail from cleggy today stating this.
So I tried to call them, They were probably hiding............
Dear DD rider
The club has not been informed by New Era that we have a combined grid for the Donington Park meeting, and they are fully aware of number of entered for each class with the DSC.
If they is any problems or clarification are required about entry forms or meeting please contact New Era directly.
As a suggestion I would recommend that for events entered box, on entry form you mention which class of bike you are race i.e. Class A or B.

It does not suit New Era to just try and run our class on a Sunday (probably wouldn't suit other clubs either)so if we said we would also put out two fairly full grids (say min of 25 on each) on the Saturday as well. So that we end up with 4 championship point scoring races at meetings at Pembrey, Snetterton, Anglesey and both Cadwells then they could try filling the grids at Donny and CC with a differnt guest class

dude, i'm pretty sure that at most meetings last season where we were sunday only, NE eventually cottoned on and also held non championship DD races on the saturday... i can definitely remember this being the case at snetterton and at cadwell. And, if my prevailing memory serves me correctly, the majority of sunday dd'ers were also saturday dd'ers, if that makes sense!

not to mention the amount of dd'ers that also enter 2nd and in some cases 3rd classes as well, NE do pretty well from the DD series!

they certainly do well enough from the dd series to warrant, at the very least, a response to emails being sent to them! seriously, at what cost is an email? 2 minutes of time. and what cost to not bother replying to an email? i'm not on the grid this season, you do the math.

KRC went belly up cos they suddenly felt they didnt need to communicate with the teams anymore, NE are going the same way. I hope they can turn it around.
