Default Sunday Racing

Would people be interested in a club in the North East running indoors on a sunday afternoon?? Probably 12 till 5 every week except when regionals are on.

Could people also post there reasoning wether yes or no.

Thanks

Peter

i would be peter, the reson i sold my B44 was it was hard for me to get racing on a tuesday night, but if it was sunday i might have to invest again and if the dates diddnt clash with the NRX dates when we are up and running

Well I put yes, cos the sundays I couldn't make it for doing worksop rounds etc..I still think there would be a good enough turnout by club racers who dont do worksop/bury or regionals. As for people with families etc if you think about it you spend roughly 3.5 hours there on a tuesday it's only another 1.5 hours extra, don't think it should make a massive differance.

i said yes becuase i have been out of racing for nearly a year and i need the practice to keep up.

Plus who doesnt want a bit more track time..........

Were there any particular clubs that were interested in hosting this?

I'd much prefer club racing on a week night if possible..
Sundays are for "Big Events"

Reason I put no:
Probably be at regional / national / worksop on weekends.
Or away on holiday for a weekend.

Weeknights aren't too much of an intrusion to 'holiday time', or weekend racing.

And on a weekday, I can use works electricity to charge my batteries

It would also depend on area. Dunno if Id be tempted to an NERCR or NRX sunday electric club, if say JORCR was on Tuesday nights

my reason would be
I have a 8 year old son who alway with me racing on tuesday night which my wife ain't happy we returning home around 10.30pm which already passed his bed time at 9pm for school next day so therefore sunday is best time which mean he get to go bed normal time at 9pm

I said no because I will have to fight tooth and nail to get there every week with the wife !
I would prefer early sunday mornings say 8 till 12 then all parties can go

1. Young families are not affected to much
2. Kids can go
3. Day out is still possible

I know that time is not available but for me its the best compromise if it were available
