I remember that year, 2009, the year 3 people completed the 4wd series & 2wd never really happened, shame that there are only a few of us racing now that knows about "The dark times".

The protest is about someone who is frankly broken in the head, thinks he's racing in F1, not toy cars in a field and got beaten by someone who booked in after the deadline.

As Colin said the pre-book wasn't a set in stone rule, it's not something to protest about, it's there as a help for Colin and the clubs holding the meetings.

It was never a thing to stop people booking late, more to try and stop people booking in for meetings and not turning up, so it it's easier for Colin to know how many trophies to order etc.

I freely admit I booked in and was a no-show this week! but at least the region got a bit of money out of me for the hassle.
