If Rockingham is six times dull, as Trevor says, may I advocate the inclusion of two circuits that certainly aren't? Namely, Cadwell and Brands, that must be counted among the most challenging in the country...

Pembrey - for all it's rain, has always been a great circuit for 2CV racing. Surely issues over staff are not a very good reason for not racing there.

No doubt BARC is aware of the problem and most likely are seeking a solution. HR matters like that can take a while to sort.

Not Rockingham, no way, no f***ing way!! Dull, Dull, Dull, Dull, Dull, Dull
Soul-less, lifeless, mickey mouse, horrible place
Trevor ;D
Not rockingham then trev,i get the idea(i know not where from)that you are slightly averse to the place.

Re Pembrey.
Has electric hook-up. We can use in 2007 but not this year.
Has metalled paddock. We can use in 2007 but not this year
Has club house which we are not permitted to use as a club
Circuit manager has made it clear he holds us with little regard
Plus with Honda having been modified has made circuit little challenge.
The votes already cast have shown the way so far.

Steve, you also forgot the 2007 rugby world cup.
When England was playing all the TV's in bar were faulty according Mr davies & his Welsh staff (sorry trevor) !!!! But surprise surprise (sorry Cilla) for the game that followed later that evening every one was fully functional......

I should think anyone who went to pembrey this year would be happy for it not to darken our season again, wasnt the best club experience I've ever had. There are lots of better options out there!
Paddock Hill Bend is not flat in top!

Derek Coghill

I must have been wandering around with my head in the clouds, then, because I never noticed anything! But I don't usually plug my tent into the mains or watch rugby matches.

Plus there's a 950-mile round trip.....

Trevor Williams

Why do I dislike Rockingham?
Treated us like crap a few years ago
The circuits are not very interesting - dull in fact
Concrete walls are very unforgiving
If you overshoot the first corner, you have to go all the way around the oval and rejoin at turn 4
The place is lifeless, nothing there for pre / post race entertainment, it's in the middle of an industrial area
Driving around seeing the massive grandstands totally empty would be soul-destroying, it was bad enough driving the course car
Difficult to get marshals to attend
All in all, wrong circuit, wrong place
All personal views of course!!
Some days, it's REALLY difficult being me!

Steve Cowell

Did an arrive and drive at rockingham earlier this year.It was the greenfleet solutions show,we took two of the electric vehicles we sell,thought it was lifeless as well and yes Trevor, the stands all empty do look shite !!!  lol, all concrete and no soul. :(
The older I get,the faster I was (not)

Simon Crook

I agree with you about Rockingham, use it as an oval (as intended) driving an Ascar or a Rockingham 2000 car round and round  ;D ;D ;D
