Bump, anyone?.......

3) New Era & the DSC agree so many prospective riders in each class, thus we need 1 or 2 grids, etc.

4) If riders dont commit up front, then how are the Club able to commit?

I realise it is all chiken & egg, but trust (commitment) has to start somewhere.

absolutely right. I personally am buying a DD race bike, which has a value far in excess of the £200, and only has much value as long as there is a DD series to race it in. that is my personal level of commitment, but I fully understand you can't take this to NE to show rider commitment for the series!
my question was, if for unforseen circumstances (smashed up bike,blown engine,broken legs, divorce ) I be unable to race in the series, would I get the £200 back in full or part?
just a thought, have had them all apart from the divorce....

The deposit only becomes payable if you pull out after we lock down the series. This is normally in early February, when in effect you commit to entering all of the rounds.

Remember that in 207 it is proposed that you will only be able to drop one race score, not two. Thus you will need to attend all rounds to have the best chance of acheiving a high position at the end of the year!

yo ucan join as many race series as you want, if you mean you showed commitment by placing a £200 deposit and then you didn't honour that commitment I would fully expect you to lose your £200
