Thundersport only do 2 day racing like bemsee except at oulton usually, but on day 1 we get 15 - 20 mins untimed practice and then 15 mins approx qually then 2 x 10 to 12 lap races depending on track length.
Then on day 2 you get 10 - 15 mins warm up and 2 more races the same as on day 1. Full grids in all races but well run with minimal stoppage and good call ups.
Last weekend was a one off with 2 x 25 min qually for each class on the friday.
so the 240 for cadwell works out quite well compared to other clubs for tracktime. The 140 would give you all the same again so 4 races, 1 qually and 2 warm ups which isnt too bad really is it?
but not everyone wants to or can afford to race on 2 days so thats why the race clubs compliment each other.
we are happy with what we have had last year and what is promised this year and have not heard a word agaisnt their tracktime allocation or what people have to pay. they also rotate the classes at each meeting so that each class will move along and eventually be 1st or last at some point.

seems someone phoned thundersport again last week asking them to have dd and even said they knew me and ck well but obviously not that well as something they said didnt ring true with dave stewart so he told me on thursday afternoon, and as you can see there is definately no room for a 1 day class with them this year.
