It was because there was no doctor on site, we did 3 laps behind the safety car and the championship order formed the grid.

It was the infield road circuit which incorporates part of the banking.
They run the opposite way to the NASCAR's and indy cars

Can you name this ex 2CV driver.

It is with a very sad heart I tell you of the passing of Marc.
He passed today after a short battle with illness.

Sorry
Practice sessions not testing

The 24 HR shows we have testing included in the fee, is this just on the Saturday and if so what session times are they or is it Friday testing
Or are we going to get fleeced to the tune of about £700 for a Friday testing of 4 x 30 mins which makes Silverstone look extremely cheap

that is true but we weren't last ones on track

It looks like our Enduro may become a sprint race.
Last race on the Sunday, given the red flags caused by the trucks I feel it's unlikely we will get full track time.

I have an entry and will be there

Sadly I'm 2nd reserve.
Left it too late 😭

I shall be an entrant for sure.
Just let me know more details as and when.
From the people I spoke to about this we should be able to get out at least 6 cars.
Not sure if all those follow this thread so if not we will need to chase them.
Let me know if you need any help.

Would anyone have any spare tickets for this weekend.
If you do I would happily swap for beverage or for ?
Well almost anything.
Please reply here or message me.
Thank you.

I might be up for it would depend upon how the day goes

please see the Pembrey timetable You cannot view this attachment.

I was told the enduro wasn't going to be the last race on the Sunday.
Makes me change my mind about doing it given a 7 hour journey home after

Oh if only I could attain 25 ttg.
I'm hovering around 16 but that's my choice for the vehicle I use. But there again I do accommodate for all my helpers and quite often people from other teams.
The above I don't mind and I will always offer someone a bed if I have a spare and they have no accommodation.
My issues are a few fold but as I'm in a minority it is what it is.
I just feel that the people who are actually keeping the club going are not always being thought of ( more being taken for granted ) and that it doesn't exactly show prospective new racers an affordable low cost series.
My mileage for this season's events works out at 1800 miles, which at 16 ttg is a little eye watering.
It's not the distance for me it's the ease of getting to the circuit.
I would rather pay the extra money for brands and have 2 hours less to travel than go to pembrey or Anglesey.
As noted at the AGM a unanimous vote was carried that doing both was not wished for.
A chance of an enduro was offered, but only at pembrey which then meant both Welsh events were a given.
This has now become a non championship event which for people like myself as noted above is a non runner.
At some point the people who actually pay to race and guarantee a series continues must be taken into consideration, if this means the club has to move away from barc then it has to happen.
The club and it's driver, helpers and loyal supporters etc deserve more than being offered the scraps from other race series just because they are a supposed more prestigious club which may only have 5/6 cars at the meeting.
