Like dropping Class A????

I didn't realise that was a common feeling amonst Class B riders.

If that's the common feeling then it'll be proposed.

No its not common, the only person to mention it in this thread I believe is you
I mentioned it tongue in cheek in another thread where in the first post it was proposed only running one class up to 620

I'm hardly likely to make that a serious proposal having just built myself a 620,
neither do I see Dickies proposal in the best interests of Class B riders.

And lets face it this is how the day started off on the message board with a Class A entrant suggesting doing away with Class B and I suppose I'm meant to sit back be impartial and say nothing.

BINGO!!!!

So then, how are we going to make DD better?

Anyone?

[skidlids]

We get at least 4 riders to move up from class B to class A and those 4 sell/loan/hire their bikes to people wanting to race in Class B, then we find at least another five riders for each class and we are about there on numbers.

Stay away from circuits with larger than average grids and go to some with smaller grids such as Mallory as we stand more chance this way of getting seperate grids

Keep a lid on costs by limiting championship to 6 rounds if only one day events (I wouldn't mind the odd 2 dayer with 4 races) and only allow droping of one race result (12 races with 11 to count)

Get the start of the season confirmed early, such as first round to be the weekend that the clocks change which is late March

And lets find out who among this years entrants intends taking part next year and who also intends to enter the series anew so we can understand the numbers we are most likely to be working with

Yep, I agree

We need to get away from doing Superclub rounds with 15 classes etc.

I like the idea of just 6 rounds (12 races) and dropping 1 race is good, coz at least it encourages people to enter all 6 rounds (good idea)

...and if we can go back to Assen, then that needs to be more of a 'fun' round rather than counting towards the main championship. Maybe we can arrange nice prizes - although I'd race there just coz it's such an amazing trip.

Agreed, or early April.

Yep. I'm 99% sure I'll be out there again (sorry). Barring any misfortune.

Nice one Kev
