The committee have recently been discussing this very thing!
It has come to the attention of the club, that non Bury members are using the track to brush up on their driving skills, which they are then using at other north west venues.
This is clearly unacceptable. Given the club has spent a considerable amount of members funds in the redevelopment of our track, it is simply wrong for drivers from other clubs to turn up and benefit, without due consideration for supporting our club!
To this end, the club kindly insist that any drivers that are Not currently Bury members, cease using our track immediately! And they do so until such time as you have paid to be a club member, or when participating as a guest of the club, eg regionals. This request is not designed to turn away drivers. Quite the opposite. The request intends to highlight that Bury, just like any other club, needs funds to continue to exist.
The club continues to attract new members and is more than happy to accept these drivers as club members and welcomes them to join us at any of our club meetings in the near future and beyond.
To be clear, the use of the track by Bury members is allowed at any time, but obviously at their own risk.
Before it is said, We all know the difference between, persons using the track for bashing and those who are keen racers, using it to hone their drivers skills! So please support the club in managing this issue.
Please contact either myself of club secretary Neil Burdess (birdy) to discuss further if required.
Many thanks for your support in this matter.
