The official line from Chris Bushell...

Quote:

The briefing 2.05 was the final one of the closed season, however it quite
clearly states:

2/3rd September Snetterton (long race Sunday)

As I understand our agreement with New Era at this time, we are due to get a
long race per class (i.e. two races on the Sunday) subject to our normal
minimum of 25 on each grid.

There was an suggestion, which has been discarded, that in the event that we
didn't go to Cadwell in March (which of course we did go to) then there
would be two short races on the Saturday and long race on Sunday for each
class. That will not be happening.

i can see how the new era form could cause a bit of confusion

but how i see it and the phone calls iv had with new era and DSC we are doing the long race on sunday. which is what i put down

now if we get 25 riders for each class then we get a long race for class A and B if not we are on the same grid.

sorted

you knew how many races you had on each day, and how many laps you got...

its a real shame, because the series is really good otherwise!!




Good point, well made.

Feel free to tell me to mind my own business, but i can't help thinking that sometimes you are all your own worst enemies with this series.

Skids is trying to tell you in a round about way....

IF YOU HAVE ENOUGH ON THE GRID.... you will get your own grids and be able to make more decisions on the rest of the meetings/season.

The guys who are messing about and not putting their entries in until late are the ones who are causing the issues.

Correct me if i'm wrong here Skids/Rattler.... if enough had entered early enough for CC, do you think you could have got 2 grids/races ?

Get the entries in... show NE they HAVE to listen to you.....

don't whinge about it guys, you are the ones causing some of the issues.

Yes, you are indeed wrong - hence why a load of people never turned up.

We had one grid of 44, that was it.

Not all of us can afford to stick all of our entries in at once. I'm one of the late ones as I have to wait for pay day before I can send off the next lot of forms. If that's causing problems there's really sod all I can do about it, unless somebody wants to pay for my entries ;)

Chicken and egg mate...
NE can't justify splitting the classes unless we get more entries in, and we won't put the entries in until the classes are split. Stalemate!

Don't agree. There's a deadline for entries, so long as we meet the deadline then it's not late - the timetable is made by NE after such deadline.

Nope, I'm sure we wouldn't. We turned up with numbers far in excess of some other classes who did get their own grid. Our numbers proved irrelevant.

Sometimes, yes.

Fil, as it would appear that you have just volunteered to pay Grib's entries, can you pay mine too please?
