2008 will feel like there are some missing rounds....

I mean, imagine not going to tiverton (we kinda knew this though), Kiddy (shocker), southport (shocker) and Bury Metro (shock)

when you say any of those tracks I instantly think 'national'....

I don't go on RC websites for a month or so, I come back and the world is on its head!!

[Stu]

Bury, yeah, that's my yearly E final out the window then.

Chris, you got an 8th?

[ashleyb4]

of course he has lol

I was told kiddy has put in for one and southport or was that just my ears playing tricks on me.

Im pretty sure Southport was an approved late entry

[Lee Martin]

i would be interested to see how that was viable?

[telboy]

just had a quick nosey on google eath at all the locations.
They're all south of nottingham!

Looks like lots of travelling for us northeners.

[MattW]

As i've said before, you'll get no sympathy from those of us living further south that have been travelling north for the majority of the season!!!

[PaulRotheram]

2009 will be more balanced, i've faith.

[David Church]

I think most really ask for is a balanced series. 2 up north, 2 in the middle 2 in the south

[Lee Martin]

i dnt care where i travel as long as i go to the best tracks!

[telboy]

I dont want sympathy matt, its ok. I just said its a lot of travelling.

I'm used to travelling to meetings so it doesn't really bother me too much anymore. Obviously theres going to be travelling long distances for everyone through the seasons no matter what you race.

Looking forward to going to mr martins track, looks ace.

i'm assuming the 8th tracks are going to construct a shorter track for us 10th racers?
