Is that racing or race???

dickieducati 04-Aug-2006 10:14

well thats handy seeing as i enteredsv's for some practice PRIOR to DD. tossers!

why they cant just leave things alone and stop ****ing about with all the schedules just fails me.

kye 04-Aug-2006 11:03

Why don't you lot stop winging and do something about it like pull your entries?? Then they might actually start listening if no one turns up

As far as I'm aware, you've paid for 2 races (SV as well) so you can have a full refund since they arn't giving you what the services you've paid for in full, they can't simply charge you £30 for withdrawal after they start making changes

Way I see it is everyone winges about them yet you all seem to just go along with it anyway, which won't help matters when they decide to do the same next time

You're right Kye, but it's no good if half the riders pull out is it.

It's all or nothing.

Then it's up to the RC to ensure it won't happen again in the future.

Notice how the Karts pulled out, and the Supermono's are getting untimed practice - both independant series like DD. We were given the option to pull out though, and we voted to race - although I think this was due to people thinking they would get extra races (It was for me).

On the face of it, it looks like NE have been a bit sly in accepting entries. At least telling us we can enter extra classes for £25, and then denying us the races once the closing date passes. What can you do?

kye 04-Aug-2006 11:35

Hence why I didn't enter in the first place, I'm going to go have some fun and enjoy my trackday then go home or maybe stay and watch the next day

I'll be deffinately doing Cadwell race as it's my local then I'll see how next year goes but I can't afford £130 for 1 race on my wages, I've practically given up most my social life for racing and I'm bored of getting shafted for it.

I've paid £180 for DD and SV yet the SV entry isn't ticked on the entry card, wtf is going on as there also isn't a cheque giving me a refund either ?

Desmodueracer 04-Aug-2006 14:56

Maybe NE are pi88ed off with us failing to fill the 2 grids we said we would pre-season and moaning all the time but then trying to gatecrash other classes??

Grib 04-Aug-2006 14:58

Gatecrash? If you pay for an entry and it's accepted, then you're fully entitled to run with whoever you bl00dy well feel like IMO
