Davo, don't be put off. We're all great friends and its the most successful class within the BRCA - and the North East is probably amongst the best regions in terms of number of clubs/racer and level of skill.
All it is, is that all venues have had 240v for so long that we have become so used to it we take it for granted. So all our gear runs from 240v power supplys (to 12v) and we also use this in the summer from Generators.
TRCC is a great club and is just unfortunate to not have 240v, and because of us racers having 240v for so long we don't need 12v, so to need one for one event - many can't justify buying one.
What I have suggested is those who need to, share. Nobody has got huffy about anything.
I have pulled out for other reasons, which is a shame as id liked to have gone. Although I wouldn't buy a 12v as it wouldn't be needed afterwards, id look at pre-charging what I can and sharing to get through the day.
But don't be put off, come and join the fun and everyone will make you welcome.
