Tony, I said no such thing about Ribble, in fact I said they cater very well for the fun market. They are a great club for encouraging the new blood, I've no issue with that. LDA and Ribble are, or were, aimed at different people.
Again its not an issue now but thank you for the support in the meeting, Mark wanted to try to recover some of his costs over time, sure, but the main driver was to give something back and run a club as he thought best, IE by a racer for racers.
Dropping the Regional, and the GP to that end, wasn't an easy decision but with such poor numbers and the discouraging comments, most people posting they weren't going to attend, he felt he couldn't keep paying to support something that seemed doomed to never come good.
