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

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

24h-Race / 24 HR testing
June 18, 2025, 21:01:52
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

Races (not 24 hr) / Pembrey Enduro

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
#9
Sadly I'm 2nd reserve.
Left it too late 😭
#10
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.

Quote from: Chris Hall on April 26, 2023, 12:23:21please 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.

I wholeheartedly agree with the above.
This season's circuit choices are to be blunt a joke.
Having 2 races in Wales 2 weeks apart is ridiculous, unless you happen to live on the doorstep, in which case it's all very well and good.
I'm not sure why we had the poll asking drivers which circuits they favoured as the results seem worthless.
With the cost of living etc increasingly as it has I can understand why the entry has increased but I can't figure why our actual race time has decreased again.
Surely at this rate we will be turning up for a 1 lap sprint or maybe a drag race.
The cost of racing is never going to get cheaper but what we appear to be saving on race entry is being spent on actually getting to the track for less minutes racing.
I don't get having an enduro that is not part of the championship, I've said this before as a single driver I am being penalised. This time to the tune of 25% of the entry having qualified already because I am participating in the championship not just turning up for 1 race.
If people want to introduce new drivers or test their cars for the 24 HR would it not make more sense to do an open track day at the cost of £275 ish for 8 hours rather than £600 for 90 minutes.
I don't see any reason to drive 13 hours for 2x 15 minute races and then follow that up with another 10 HR drive 2 weeks later for the same.
That is probably the biggest reason why I highly doubt I shall be competing in the championship this season.
When I can drive to Europe and compete in a 2 hour race for less than the cost of the above there has to be something wrong.
