Reading through the minutes at the mo'.

Shocked and amazed that foam tyres we're banned! I understand all the hoo-haw (is that how that's spelt?) on the suspicion of people using additive, but even if there we're, you should be able to see people doing it, certainly smell it (even the very low odour ones), and the car would very likely leave blank streaks on the track. I know someone else on the other forum pointed out that Gecko has supported the series almost from the start, and it's doesn't look good. I mean, doesn't bother me about tyre choice, as I've switched to rubbers anyway, but a lot of people still run foams.

Got to rule 26, and noticed that only one person voted for, when there should have logically been 2 votes for it, what happened there?

[DCM]

just because someone seconded it, after discussion, it don't mean that they fully agree with it.

Gecko work better with additive, period. If you rule out additive, you either got to trust the drivers, or remove the temptation, better to remove temptation in most instances.

[sldmodels]

Oh I understand the first point, but you would expect at least 2 votes for.

Understand about additive on foams too, but just shocked that the micro section, who we're so pro-foams have banned it.

It may be after discussion at the EGM the seconder has changed their minds.

In terms of good news though, have you seen the application form for the nationals Sarah?
There's a section for the clubs to detail the disabled access available at the venue.
