The idea for a committee is a good one but as I've been told by much higher authorities as the BRCA rep. for scotland it is my choice whether to have a committee to help me out or back me up. I'm not trying to put anyone's noses out of joint, I'm just trying to do what I think is right for the championship.
That being:
- that I feel 8 rounds are too many (7 being a good compromise)
- the calendar as it is is spread evenly with a nice gap between rounds so that it doesn't kill racers hunger to go & race. Also to allow for time to order parts & fix cars if/when breakages happen
Also at the moment as for making decision then YES I make them but for now that's the way it is.
However the plan for a committee is that the clubs who choose to host a round of the championship will automatically get a committee position, that way no one club will have multiple committee members so keeping things fair hopefully. As the Scottish Rep. though I will still have the deciding say on any issue.
I am only trying to do what is best for you the racers & considering that last year was the first serious comeback of 1/10th off-road racing in Scotland then I don't want us trying to go from taking baby steps to doing the 100m sprint.
The BRCA 1/10th Off-Road National Championship is our BENCH MARK too achieve & if we can get a third as good as the set up for them then we (Scotland) will have a great regional championship but it will take time so be patient
You can't please everyone all of the time
