Well then, that was a good day yesterday, well done to Kev on a well run day and also well done on the new club house very nice mate. Of course congratulations go to Graeme who is now officially "The Duke" and to G.T who are now officially the best club in the universe ever. On the whole i think year one ran pretty well, i know there are one or two things that need looking at rules wise but nothing major and certainly nothing that cant be sorted out before year two comes around, in my opinion the main thing was to have a seies that was run in the right spirit and it was certainly that, well done all,

C_B,
If the Jamie referred to above is Jamie Kelly then that would seem to indicate there would be a chance to extrapolate that into MBR being the fourth club next year? see you Friday? I will be there, not sure about the BT49 Regds - Deane -------------------- |

I would just like to add to what Chris has said and thank everone involved in what has become a very successfull series. The big "winner" in all of this is EARL and long may it continue. For a fledgling event,attendance has been in the low 20's at every round.
Many from my club have realised that there is more to racing than just "monday night" and that competition at ,and with ,other clubs can be held in a friendly atmosphere. The racing has been great,venues have been good and the food and "cooks" excellent Commiserations to all (especially Jaik) who suffered mechanical failure in the finals yesterday. I was begining to suspect sabotage Here's to next time then. PS:i hpe that i haven't used any BIG words that readers may not be able to understand -------------------- Negative criticism usually comes from those who attempt nothing more in life than "sitting on the fence".

Yes, I enjoyed the day too and all our members said they really enjoyed it too and can`t wait for the next time!
Maybe for next year it would be a good idea to stage the final round at Tendring taking into account the extra time taken scoring and trophy presentation ceremony and the travelling home would then be fairer for everyone. Thank you for everyone who attended especially John Kelly who made an early start then got mullered by the Moslers and Steve J for taking all the photos which will be posted shortly.Also special thanks to Graeme,brilliant job with the trophies. Really looking forward to next time. -------------------- |

Just a thought, if next year does have 2 rounds at each venue what about one round Sports GT and one Touring Cars. It would produce a variation of cars and rounds can be staged on Saturdays or Sundays to aviod clashes with other meetings and scattered throughout the year.It was over very quickly and people can`t wait for next year.Another club would be good too.
Also how about a box standard Nascar Challenge for later in the year? we all have several skilled racers and close racing would be good. -------------------- |
