RC racing is not a sport!

[Cardnim]

Guys,

Thanks so much for the excellent replies - this is all really good advice, and its given me loads to think about.
Very interesting about the motor sports association - that should help validate the "sport" argument.
...and great point about snooker - a 'sport' I am very into myself!

@SiCoe / Churk - you are probably correct, and its a valid point. I also want to make sure that the council dont go down the road of debating whether it's a sport or not. I want them to think its a good way of engaging with the community and providing something for kids/teens/adults to participate in and enjoy.

However, I dont care at present about the costs. Im happy to find these elsewhere (and feel confident that I probably could do so).
All Im looking for at this stage is permission to re-use an old track which is already there.

Here's hoping!
I'll keep you guys informed of how I get on in this process.

Thanks again.
Oople rocks
