Can't say up until recieving the regs that we were gauranteed any untimed practice and as it hasn't appeared on the enetry regs, it may have been under consideration by NE at one point but thats all.
Most race meetings at club level consist of one practice and two races these days, untimed Practice is a bonus and would be nice and there is no harm in asking but the other club classes are in the same boat as us and if they do it for us they may have to do it for them and this would only happen if the timetable can accomidate it.
Got to remember the Superbike races and sidecar races take up one heck of a lot of time, They spend ages on the grid before each race with the Solos up on stands with warmers on, people doing interviews etc
As for two grids we stand to get them when we put 25 out on each grid, something we have failed to do so far so who can we blame for that.
Yes I think the situation stinks and is not what DD is meant to be about, its starting to get the feel of every other race series and as I am use to this sort of thing I have paid my money and sent my entry in
