As I said above if you want YOUR sport to run as YOU would like then YOU need to get involved, no point complaining after the horse has bolted (not having a go at you just making a point )

If very few 1/10th offraod racers turn up to the RCCAOI AGM then changes can be pushed through by a show of hands, no objections equals the rule gets passed, simple. The RCCAOI is a democratic organisation, everybody has equal rights, unfortunately very few racers tend to exercise their rights

I dont have time to race, never mind going to meetings
I know you're not having a go, tone of voice doesn't come across well on messageboards.

TBH, it's not a big deal to me, would have been nice to have a nationals there, but as long as I can go along on a sunday and have a good days racing I'm happy, nationals don't mean anything to me. I still would have signed up if the naul was on the list.
As I said earlier, I don't know how these things work, but it's a shame that such a good track is to be used because of a technicality. Are these things set in stone? Why not just use the track anyway? The first line on the RCCAOI page says "The RCCAOI is an organization which exists to promote RC car racing in Ireland."
We'll promote it by not using the best track in RoI, the only club with a 1:10th track, and closest one to the biggest population
