One off BIG indoor meeting.

[racingdwarf]

I think it would be great for the hobby (10th) to have a meeting like the neo/proline that dxr get together. I don't think it would premote the hobby to joe public, but it would be great to get a GP type meeting on dirt indoors ( NO astro/ carpet) and would be a nice change from the National circit.

I think meeting like this would pull a lot of racers like myself out of the woodwork.My local region is small, 20-25 people per regional. I would love to take part in bigger meetings but doing the nationals will cost far to mutch money in travel, I suspect more people are going to be in this situation in the comming year (fuel credit crunch, inflation bla bla).We not only need to look at ways of getting new people into the hobby, we need to keep racers who are here now in the hobby two,

The following is a bit off subject for this thred but....
In a way nationals and regionals are killing club racing, as many people say they are so busy doing a national (££) and a regional in a month that they have no time for club racing.

PS These are only my thoughts on the subject of this thred, I enjoy racing at meetings like wrksop indoor etc and I am not putting the quality of there tracks or meetings down in any way. Before someone jumps on me
