As for 2 classes, its best to have it on the same day, for now, Think of the cost inlvolved for racing 2 days for some people who have to travel far. we want to increase numbers not lose them.
keep it as it is as dave says the numbers are low, wait till they pick up and start playing with that idea for 2 days. running separate days would lose the atmosphere also.
Run the 2wd as above also. 4 rounds 3 A mains and single finals below thatwill cut time down. then use that time to gap the 4wd and 2wd timetable.
my views....feel free to bash them up  |
Back in the day... at a typical Dumfries run BRCA National. Briefing at 8.30. Practice 8.45. First heat 10.00. 4 rounds of 12 ten car heats. 14 finals (3 A's). Presentation of troph's at 5 ish. Home. Ta Daa!
This required a fairly merciless schedule and a fair bit of 'encouragement' throughout the day! Usually went pretty smoothly. Usually.
