Wow chaps... great to see some interest and some real good comments, really pleased i started this thread!

I read the Stotfold report, PM'd Jimmy with the thumbs up with my backing on his comments, said A1 Racing club would happily host a weekend meeting as part of a series and i'd happily be on board with the organisation team if it was something oOple would back.

If we could get BRCA to back it as a second overlow series then great, but they would need a whole new team of officials to run it as they are busy with the National series proper... as commented, we compete at regionals to earn 'F' gradings... but from the stats it basically means that unless we are superstars we are pretty much cut out of getting National entries and left twiddling thumbs on those weekends... since we wouldn't be at Nationals anyways... why not have another series on those weekends at different venues.

The F3/4/5 idea was to cater more for the regular keen Regional and club based racers and have a championship that catered more for lower skill levels... obviously the BRCA National series doesn't at the minute as the entries are seeded down from the top and places are in high demand.

So we need a place to start, obviously this year is out as it's too late with the season already started and too short notice to make good attendances, ind tracks and get it promoted etc etc.. i know how busy my race calendar is and i'm happily single so don't need a Visa stamping!

Anyways, i'd love to be involved as part of a team of organisers or simply as a racer
