But, frankly, the "cost of the hall" excuse is rather weak, as it costs no more to add a heat of trucks than it costs to add a heat of buggies (unless the point is to become known as a "buggy-only" club). I thought the point of club racing was to make it open to all, 3 cars make a class, and not to chase people off with an elitist attitude because they don't own buggies.  |
I usually run a heat of Short Course trucks at my meetings. I get a group of 5 people coming over and to be honest I have no problem with that.
However if on 3 people came week in, week out then I would consider not running the class. It seems that you've missed to point, 3 SC Trucks at say £8 per entry, or 8 buggies at £8 per entry...... It's also a nightmare as you have to then find people to help marshall the next heat.
If people don't support classes, then clubs will move to classes that will support the clubs!!
