treated like what, not Hottrax fault Mallory called in the administrators, could easily of washed there hands and drawn a line under the season. Personally I'd prefer a race meeting at Pembrey rather than nothing at all. If you look at their T&Cs (I haven't) they probably don't have to refund us if its out of their control, sh*t happens and they are on the receiving end just as much as we are.

If you don't like it pay on the day, that way it will always be your decision and only your fault if you lose out.

Think you have a point, it's not Hottrax fault or of their making, and I am sure the T&C's do cover such an eventuality, however there is one basic comment: We have paid for something that is not now being supplied, we should not be obliged to take the alternative or just suck it up.I understand that Hottrax have worked really hard to provide an alternative, and have managed to get something organised at very short notice, but due to the new venue I cannot make it....looks like tough s**t for me then!

Just wish I could be there for the last race of the season, but cant do that sort of distance (11 hour drive each way) for one day

Not exactly on the doorstep i'll admit, but did have the benefit of having friends and family within an hour, so givin that it was only one days racing I could make a weekend of it and do some visiting, but hey I should have known, the toast always falls butter side down!

Thanks to Mallory for dropping us in the s4it
Thanks to Pembrey for giving us a chance to race

Not ideal by any stretch of the imagination but better than diddly squat

Sorry to hear its just not going to be viable for some to make the switch and well done to those that can at such short notice.

As I posted on FB its very bad timing for us with the administrators getting called in 6 days before we were due to race at Mallory, shame they couldn't have put it off until the clocks changed

I had started thinking of going 30 miles up the road to Silverstone for the BSB shoot out, glad I didn't rush into it and book an advanced ticket on line.

And if everybody does it don't expect to have a DD race series for long as no club would give us our own grid space for zero entries, or 10 or 15 for that matter, we would end up either sharing a grid with other classes or not getting included in the meeting as DD

It's only an extra 2 hours / 130 miles each way for me.

And i'm not even racing when I get there!!

Well I'm going too. Weathers good sat, not great Sunday but ok
