The whole of this seems to be because one racer in his first year in the region doesn't like it, this person also complained about holding 2WD & 4WD on the same day and about the entry fee (too cheap!!).

I do think the entry fee is too cheap as you are effectively running two regional events in one, but if the clubs don't want to make money and improve the facilities then that's entirely up to them, I will of course benefit from the single entry fee too.
You are correct, I have entered the E of E region for the first time, it means a lot of travelling for me (like many others I assume) so obviously, as I've not raced at all the tracks before, I'd like as many rounds of qualifying as the BRCA rules allow. If this is seen as complaining then I apologise, but all I'm trying to do is get more track time for everyone at the meeting, I've not mentioned anywhere in any of these posts that I'd like less finals for anyone.
It seems as though there is very little interest in the E of E region for F ratings, end of season finals and the rules set out by the BRCA for regional events if you read the posts above from E of E members so it makes me wonder why you don't hold your own E of E series and not bother with regionals?
