The way Bradders has upped his game this year i can seriously see him going home with at least one trophy this year.

That is why I suggested 3 dropped results to keep everything fair if someone has a bad weekend.

Seconded.

Just got my email from the RC. Sat to be run as Brands/Mallory, then a non-championship race on the Sunday (the Sun grid based upon Race 1 finishing positions).

Makes Sun a bit pointless, but a bit of fun none the less.

It means I can come home a day early.

Exactly what Anna and I were thinking.

I agree with Phil. Something like this should have been at the very least discussed/debated.
Some people may have made arrangements which prevented them from racing on the Saturday now they will miss out on points.

Could be a first with no starters on the Sunday grid.

If it ain't broke, etc

WHINGE WHINGE WHINGE WHINGE WHINGE

There was only ever going to be one race on Sunday, so you would HAVE to do Saturday for quallifying and at least one championship race,
A lot of YOU whinged about having race one as a quallifier, while others whinged about having 3 long races that would stress their engines

The rules at the start of the season say there are two point scoring races per round,

To Me Anglesey is a long way to go for just one day so to have a extra practice and an extra race for a extra £35 makes the trip more worthwhile

Sometimes I wonder why I bother

Only a bit pointless. I was expecting one Sat and two champ on Sunday. Why isn't there any dialogue.
