And if it does come down to only one grid of 46 then we need to be able to look at what happens if the entry is over subscribed and it comes down to quallifying with some riders not getting into the DD race.
As riders rep I need to know what the riders views are so I see no harm in discussing it openly.
then once New Era let us know what is happening we can sort out the best way forward.
I'm sure it will come up in conversation at the Oxon \ Berks night out this evening, its already getting discussed in phone calls, U2Us etc again its the lack of concreate information that keeps these discussions going. so the sooner New era let us know whats happening the better for everyone |
Thats good news Skids, biggest problem I'm faced with sorting it out with New Era is knowing what the true numbers are. Once we know that we've a better chance of sorting the grid situation so please try to get as many riders commited to the event as possible. It would be handy to have a list of entrants, ideally an email from them to confirm they are riding once they send in their New Era application.
Not all the riders seem to use their emails so that isn't easy to sort out either.
It's a way off yet so don't despair, we'll get the best deal we can negotiate, as always. |
I intended to race at CC in the 583 grid. So that's one on your list Bike 24. I really don't mind racing in a combined grid but I do mind not qualifying and therefore not racing (I am missing a big family event to be there and half of my wife's family who come from that neck of the woods are planning to come watch) so if there is a possibility that i won't race I definitely won't enter, if that all makes sense.
the sooner it can be sorted out the better as far as i am concerned.
If i can afford it I would go Tonio's way and enter both 620 and 583 to bump the grids up.
