Im also upto speed on race control.

I think all racing of any sort need to be put on hold as per Si's first post.

Running races isn't the issue though. Its what happens when things don't work its a problem. A group of part timers can't match the knowledge of a dedicated race controller

Agreed, there's a lot to discuss at an EGM, Oople really isnt the best place for much of this.

Nice kind words Si and very thoughtful,
Count me in on the EGM meeting.
The idea of a race meeting in respect of Rodger is a great idea.
Would be nice to see a packed out day raising money for charity and would be nice if Oople would do a photo shoot covering the meeting.

I wouldnt mind popping down on sunday, weather seems ok at the moment

I'll be down on Sunday and pretty sure Chris E will be too. Shows what it comes to when I'd rather practice at bury outdoor than race at srcc indoor

I'm in for that.

Ok, i'll be down at Goshen at 9:30 to open up.

Ill be there too.

Ill pop down aswell see you all then

Hi guys...

Managed to see Stu and Jen this evening.... And have a good chat about a few things.

Stu has pointed out that in the last 13+ years that Roger has been Race Controller... He only missed 1 meeting due to ill health ....

Stu has asked if this Sundays meeting could go on as normal as this would be what Roger would want to happen.

So can i ask for everyone to gather the troops spread the word and show their gratitude for everything that Roger did for the club by turning up on Sunday

Wez Davis

Of course we will be there

Fine with me. I said I'd run it before, and if Stu wants to then I'm in.

The main reason I didn't want to run a meeting this weekend is that the timing equipment and cabin keys are all at Rogers house and I felt it would be inappropriate to be disturbing the family at this time. However that appears not to be the case so if Stu wants to bring the gear I'm more than happy enough to run race control.

As Stu says Rog would want us to race.

just a thought
what about doing a memorial meeting once a year in his name all proceeds to something of his family choice,trophies prizes etc all about fun,

Lets race then!

Il see if I can get down, not 100% as we are moving into our new house Saturday!

If I can make it il help SI with race control.

I was thinking the same Carl, I'd imagine all these topics will be covered at the EGM for sure.

Is the information available to send an email to our members regarding the terrible news and upcoming meeting for those who aren't on oople?

I shall be there on Sunday for sure, let me know if there is anything you need my help with.


Chris

Fingers crossed for good weather then

This is an example of the levels that Rogers involvement went to. Yes we have email addresses for all the members that aren't on Oople, but it was Roger that held all that information.
All I can suggest is for now that we rely on spreading the news to those people we know who aren't on here.

forcast dry/cold

Dry is all I care about. Can use the tranny muff to fight the cold :-)
