I think the time has come for the RC and Reps to start asking around other clubs then lads.... you're quite clearly often unhappy with events at NE.

but what other clubs have the room for the DD two classes,unless the were mixed with another class??

Very true mate.. very true indeed.... However... lets face it, the racers on the whole are not happy with how NE are playing ball...

Would at least be worth a try ?

The way i see it, even if DD gets enough from 2 grids, NE are still going to change the rules week by week...

If the racers can get enough sigs in place as 'definates' for next season for 2 grids, take that proposal to the other clubs, they may consider it...

Much as DP are full... they have a couple of grids undersubscribed, i think they may be tempted.... NGRRC, dunno.... BEMSEE, i doubt they'd play....

But it's worth an ask at least ?

for me it would have to be DP or NGRRC...CANT see Bemsee being any better then New era...
still dont think they will get two grids for next year!!!

would be a good idea to get enough sigs in place first......
they will need to accept its going to be a mix grid.or in with a diffance class!

I just want to race really but as a novice running at the back two race starts (I'm really suffering at the starts) seems a better bet. However one long race is not the end of the world as it enables me to get a rythm going and learn the track - the one frustrating aspect of a short race.

I know this don't help the big picture that much. I would go with a majority vote of what the DD riders want.

I'm not doing Donington, I WAS looking forward to it after sorting out a trackday and everything enabling me to get to know a track beforehand, but I'm not doing it with only 1 race.

I'll be at the Donington trackday on the 12th still, having FUN, and have booked a trackday at Cadwell on wednesday for £89 instead of the race on the 13th.

Shall see everyone on the 12th hopefully, might stop and watch for the 13th but I doubt it

More people that pull out Donington the better in my opinion, we'll get listened to if we're united in what we want. Not just the turn up and race anyway attitude as we'll carry on getting shafted

Skids, ever the voice of reason.
Is it too late to get this DD round moved elsewhere, where it isnt a superclub round?
Also, remember that under JP's new rules, if the red flags come out any time after half way (6 laps in this new scenario) then the race is over.
Long way, lots of money for a possible 6 laps.

If this does go ahead like they propose then be very afraid of everyone else in the race, if you are a faller needing a red flag out

Although I am not running a DD bike I had a word with Jim Hinchcliffe of Derby Phoenix at Snetterton today, i know Jim of old as I used to race F400 with DP, He sees no problem in running DD with in DP, but is not sure he could give DD two seperate grids, but if someone from the DD organising body would like to contact him he is happy to talk about it.
