I don't know the current Worksop lot but in the 80's / early 90's many of them and the far north lot often grumbled about the long distance. No, before you ask, I don’t have proof, no tape recordings or video evidence!
Wrong on point 2 also, as I am aware of the numbers from up here who went to the excellent Worksop series.
I too am glad that another track is back on the map, no matter where it is, it's good for the sport. I just happen to think the venue should not be part of the NE regional series.
I do know how far enthusiastic drivers will go, but the point is that it is too far for the less enthusiastic, the less skilled, who we need to encouraged to get into real competitive racing.
Medders - adds that those at the extreme ends of a region will always moan, which kind of proves the point that a geographically large region will cause moans. How you can then conclude that people should just stop moaning beats me. Yes I get the point that every region will have a centre point, kind of stating the obvious, but enlarging the region makes the extremes even more extreme. If the NE region was kept as was 2008, there is nothing to stop those who love tracks outside the region from going there, whether it’s Blyth or Southend !
And as to the last two posters, what a waste of space, if they can’t enjoy a healthy debate, why bother to read it, or waste the time writing drivel, no one forces them to read this, no one is forced to read Tolstoy’s War and Peace or the Bare Arse Monthly but personally I like both. (Ok I fibbed about liking War & Peace :-))
Everyone is entitled to an opinon, no matter how dumb it is
So my opinion is a waste of space get a grip of yourself its model cars . ive not read so much rubbish in a long while . Lets have a new region Yorks and Lancs region with Blyth, Batley, Bury, Southport ect . Hows that sound to you then
