If I knew this was the situation, I wouldn't have turned up in the first place, but alas the RC and their lack of communication with NE have ****ed it up again |
I take it from this comment that when New Era sent back your entry they didn't inform you that you were a reserve ? If they did then it is racing convention that the reserves who submitted late entries go on a list and get to take up any places vacated by those who fail to qualify. Chris Wood was unfortunately unable to compete so the first reserve (Phil H) took the vacant spot as first reserve.
I'm afraid that is how it works.
Best thing all the riders interested in the 2007 series can do is register their entry with Ducati Sporting Club ASAP so that we can see if we need to negotiate with New Era for two grids as a regular occurence or just a single, mixed grid.
Jim Parker has confirmed that New Era welcome the 2007 Ducati Sporting Club Desmo Due Championship to be run at their meetings next year.
Riders will be getting email confirmation of this and other DD related news over the next week and the details for 2007 will be included in Pronto to ensure that other members interested in entering next year are all informed.
