Problem is we've had our free use of the hall, so now its going to cost. And even the free nights tended to reduce the turnout on Sundays.
If there is demand, its worth doing, but we'd need 3-4 full heats (ie 30+ keen people), to put the race control on auto (3 mins between races) and minimize layout and pack time in order to keep the cost to the racer reasonable. We are likely talking £5 a piece based on previous numbers and meeting length.

I cant speak for everyone obviously, but £5 to race shouldnt be a problem when most of these 1/10 cars now approaching a grand, also cheaper than £50 quids worth of ale, as for sundays i can see the problem, but surely we cant expect to have all the people all the time, justoffers alittle more freedom of choice

If you can organize it so it's not clashing with 10 electric ( my loacl club) you will have myself, Mark and paul as regulars. We really enjoyed the first one but the second landed on a 10 electric night... http://10electric.co.uk/calendar.html ...Calender.
