A long way to go as a reserve!

What about the people who are waiting until the meeting on the 18th to decide? Do they get shunted to the back of the queue because there are issues to be resolved?

Poor show old chap! (not directed at you Chris)

On the other hand, wouldn't it be nice to have 44 people on the grid without 'issues'. I might be tempted to jump on a plane and go to Assen

That's why we want to resolve them

A little contradictory, perhaps?
Either way. Great result to get another race at Assen. I hope my diary is free. I've many hazy memories about trips to the Netherlands. Starbucks has a thing or two to learn about Nepalese or Kenyan

I cant see why an few extra days delay would matter for the Assen 'entries of intent'
After all, the entries didnt go out until feb 06 for Assen this year.

Maybe the current RC can move the timing of these Assen entries to coincide with the final date for entries of 31st Dec?

Not at all, if we resolve the issues now then we can all go to Assen without any

I think thats what we all want.

No offence taken...

Not intended to stir anyones intent or not, just an example of the popularity of DD for next year.

Assen;

Lots of newbies and/or those who didn't go last year who want in and are keen to go to Assen regardless of issues and the RC I guess???

I'd leap of the fence and put my entry in maybe.......you could always withdraw due to irreconciliable differences if required.

Sounds like a marriage! I don't want another one of them!

Not so sure that the £200 deposit wouldn't be taken in that instance, I mean, that's what it's for isn't it?

All goes back to the reason behind opeing up the entries early, get the names down on the list so that we can negotiate with New Era and if needs be get the two grids we need allocated to us for the season.

Nothing we can't sort out at the meeting on the 18th, the current sign up rate has to be a fantastic vote of confidence in our joint abilities to make 2007 the best season yet in DD !!!!!!!!!
