Default Race meeting cancelled

Attention drivers,
Due to short numbers, coupled with there being no race controller, we have decided to cancel the final round of the winter series.
Since the room hire costs alone are £230 and we usually only just break even, it's money we didn't want to squander given the significant monies already spent on the outdoor track.
This is coupled with efforts in the coming weekends on the outdoor track means it will not be re arranged.

Many apologies but we have made the decision now to allow racers to make alternative plans
Regards
BMRCC

Disappointing news, but thanks for letting us all know Gav.

I can't speak for everyone, but I would pay £10 to race on Sunday and given that there are already 20 pre-booked on the other thread, if everyone paid this, we would only need 3 more at the price and you have got your money back?

However I also understand there is no one to do race control, so prob wouldn't work anyway.

Oh well, looks like I will have to wait another month to race again

Yeah seems a real shame. Easy 30 drivers would have booked in and charging £10 a pop would have covered costs. Just spent £15 on tires so a bit disappointed

Only 4 winter meetings this year, disappointing but at least
I hope the outdoor track will be on weekly

I can probably run race control on Sunday if you want? May be a bit slow to it all, but i should be able to get through it.
