If you start another series on a first come first serve basis the same thing will happen yet again. Doesn't matter what you say the TOP drivers will be there and it will be a mirror series to the nationals. Two friends of mine have both booked for and paid in advance for the oople Invernational. They have been then turned down both years because they are not 'names' within the toy car world, even thought they are both YORCK members. The exact same will happen with this series. Im sorry but you might set out with good intentions but it will happen like it happens everywhere. Even if you manage a genuine first come first serve there will be people who miss out.
That's why it should be as first stated and how the thread was started a series for F3,4,5's as these days you cant do nationals if you aren't F1 or F2.
People keep saying everything is fine as it is but I think it is outdated. I think we could still have regional's and incorporate a F3,4,5 national series as a point scoring event as well.

Thanks Northy.
Sorry superstar, the points that you were making elsewhere in your post did get lost along the way.
I think that such a series could be worked similar to how the entries for BRCA nationals work, but perhaps without completely excluding all F1/2 racers.
For example, priority be given to all entries from F345 drivers, with possible guest heats for higher grade drivers
if they wish to enter and if places are available. I do think that lower grade drivers value opportunities to race amongst the F1/2 drivers - what about a wildcard F1 placed in each heat for a laugh? then running in different finals. Just a thought.
In the national series the F3-5 drivers aren't excluded as such, but generally only likely to get in from the reserve list due to high subscription from top grade drivers.
