Guys, if you're going to sign up for this there's no point in doing another DSC trackday...

It's in the "Non DSC Events" Antonye, so can't see what the problem is, members get together for lots of things, that's what a "Club" is about....isn't it?

I see why Ant cannot announce the DSC dates at this time (political reasons, courtesy reasons, commercial considerations etc) but the fact remains that some members want to do a track day with other club members and time's getting away from us in terms of the summer. Plans have to be made, annual leave booked, etc.

The message board always used to be used to sort out impromptu or unofficial TDs - nothing wrong with that. If support for the DSC trackday is there, it will be there regardless of individual club members making informal arrangements for unofficial trackdays. Bradders has asked for an official date - it cannot be supplied at this point so he is sorting a TD not as an alternative, but because he wants to do a TD with some mates.

I hope feelings won't be hurt by any pf this, it isn't political, just practical.

The problem is that all the planning work has been done for the "official" DSC trackday but the date can't be released until the DUK silverstone ££££fest is done.

Now potential "official" DSC trackday attendees have the option to go for one of three dates.

The DUK date that they know
The "Official" DSC day date that they don't know.
Bradders mates go mad at cadders funfest date that they know.

IMHO dates should be released as soon as they are known, are DUK that unsure of the pull of their event that they want to keep information about another under wraps?

Ray,
they probably are if the alternatives are significantly cheaper with more track time.

I do agree that dates should be announced, even if provisional. Otherwise us lot have no idea something is in the pipeline and run the risk of booking other events.

Unfortunately in this situation, we (the DSC) are the small fry in the situation! We have to remember when to speak up and when to STFU!
