This has always been the plan...my preference (purely selfishly as it's the only night I can do) is Thursdays!

We are now getting to that time of the year, so as soon as we get it sorted we'll post details

General plan would be to have "practice nights". First idea being just to get a night where a fair number show up at the same time, to make track time, marshalling, hanging out trackside more fun/interesting.

Second plan, if enough turn up and interest is there then we can set up the timing and run timed races. Turnouts would be lower than weekends at a guess, so timings would suit minimal charging, probably just 3 rounds of racing to be had before light goes...4 at a push at the point of longest light...I would guess

As for gaps between rounds at weekend meetings: Comments have been noted from both positive and negative angles, and we can only go with the majority. I personally think we could speed things up a bit, some of our gaps have been excessive at times...but a bit of a gap is ok to keep it relaxed.

Point to note, Tiverton run straight through because they have bigger turnouts (as far as I know!). Since we don't have that pressure, we can run things differently. If we get busier, things will need to speed up accordingly.
