[QUOTE=Jonesy;290914][quote=spenner;290721]The local track knowledge part of this thread is quite amusing!!!
There are a number of tracks in the UK where local people will go well, but is this there fault ?????
Kiddy
Stotfold
EPR
RHR
Southport
5 of the best tracks in the UK and all of them have drivers who know there way round pretty well. BUT.... what is stopping you and me going to these places to practice ???????

Kiddy doesn't run club days anymore, so no practise there

EPR doesn't have any regular club meetings either -
Personally, any club who is willing to put in the effort, work and commitment to be at least on a par with our current national and EOS venues gets my vote - local knowledge is total rubbish IMO - if anything, the added pressure of self expectation can cause drivers to try too hard.
Besides, that's the point of a national series - it does even itself out over the season unless of course you've got the funds and time available to become 'local' at each one for a few weeks before each national.
Obviously, being a soft southern shandy drinker whose scared of everything North of Watford, I'd clearly like all six to be at EPR please

- Then everyone would be called a local
