I think the marshalling issue arouse last year when the electric boys didnt want to marshall for the nitro, so it was agreed that electric marshall themselves and the same with nitro. This does mean that sometimes you will have to marshall or get a relief marshall even if you are in the next heat, this has happened to both electric and nitro, but moreso electric as they tend to race 2wd and 4wd.
I can understand where mikeyg is coming from about the rules as it seems the WRCA likes to adhere to some of the rules, then overlooks others.
If the WRCA want to run the regionals to the same standard as the Nationals then the WRCA themselves should run each event, supplying timing, PA equipment, central booking in, official timekeeper, official referee, sructineering equipment. Then it should be the club who helps run the meet doing sructineering and track maintenance. So who on the WRCA committee would like to offer their services to fill the above positions and give up their days racing for each event.
