Please find an extract from the minutes of the 2008 WRCA AGM held January 2008. This was followed by Bob's resignation following the "Rebel Series". Bob's thought at the time was to allow clubs to focus on local races and try and increase member numbers, which were reducing in some clubs, unfortunately not everyone agreed. The principle was good but not everyone agreed.
"Once the new committee was in place the dates for the 2008 Championship events were discussed by Bob Williams.
Bob tabled his vision for the future and suggested that the Championship be dropped to 2 rounds, 1 in SE‐Wales and 1 in SW‐Wales, so 2 regions – PASSED. Bob gave 2 dates for the event ‐ as there are only 2 dates not clashing with any other events (18th May & 13th July) it is to be co‐ordinated between the 2 regions as to what region runs on what date. If the 2 event system works this year, it will be increased to 2 and a final next year and so on.
It was voted that it would be £10 per entry & per class so 2 classes = £20.
WRCA is expecting the first 3 in each final to get a trophy.
WHILST THERE IS A REGIONAL MEETING ON – CLUB CHAMPIONSHIP RACING IS TO BE SUSPENDED."
Just a thought .................
