As for our out door track, its not going to be easy, as we use a scafold rostrum. The only thing i have come up with is some kind of hydraulic platform that will attach to the end of the rostrum. Im wondering, as the cost will be high, as if the WRCA can club together to build/buy one. And it could be used at WRCA events. "but then where would it be stored etc, and who would have access to it when WRCA events were not held" Maybe we need a better idear for the out door season.

thanks dave for discussing it with the swansea club,the outdoor season is going to be probably the hardest bit for all the clubs as there is no real height restrictions from ceilings and so forth.but for now i geuss the easiest thing to do for now is cross that bridge when we get closer to the outdoor season starting up again.as regards to the wrca helping out with the financial side of things that i am unforunatly to say is something i cannot comment on as i do not know and am not apart of the commity so i geuss that would be something to be discussed at the agm when its held.
and adam i havent had any difficulties at anyone specific club because i have only just started racing again but so far the only club i have raced at is caldicot and they have been more thanhelpful with help getting up on the rostrum to the lay out of the track.i would be more than happy to come down to the venue to have a look with urselfs or the cobra club as regards to the rostrum and so forth.but what i will say is it will only be my personal view as i am not on the wrca committe so as i say it would be a personal view.
thanks again guys for supporting this matter.
