Errr Dick Don has a point... why not add on a date to the end of the season ?

Yes i know the 'official' WRCA summer season is May - September, but lets face it, these days the first 2 weeks in October are pretty warm outdoors and i doubt it couldnt be more wet than our June has been ? Just bung one date on there, and maybe a Saturday or the August Bank Holiday for the other if we really have to ? Ok some of wont be able to do it, but it might be a compromise ?

I'm looking to do all the WRCA regionals this year to get an F grading ahead of next years nationals.

As such, I've planned my calendar around the dates already set. Sadly I'm away on holiday on the proposed date of 26/06/11.

I know it's nobodies fault the weather was bad, but re-organising it to a date which disadvantages anybody would not be fair. As Matt and Simon suggested, just tag a date onto the end of season where we can put the new date into our calendars with plenty of time.

I may well be wrong, but I was under the belief that the 'electric 10th regionals' had to be completed by the F3's? I MAY BE WRONG

Yeah i think you are Steve - its the rating from last year that counts towards this years F3s & F2s. And this years, to next years.

Plus, one of our rounds was already set for 2 weeks after the F3's & 2's anyway

I know we have worked our way to the dates set to get our F-Licences at the start of the season, but everyone should be ready for at least one cancellation per year Jamie and accept a re-date, even if it dosent suit us ?

Im going with Dick Dons suggestion for the re-schedules - one set on a Saturday sometime, and one at the end of the season, even if its the start of October.

The Saturday idea was the axeman's but am in agreement with that one, no reason why we could't race on Saturdays, opens up lots of possible dates.

Just to clear up the BRCA thing for 10 th guys. If a round is rescheduled the counting rounds will be reduced by 1. So if we had 6 elect ric rounds with 4 to count then reschedule 2 rounds we end up with 2 to count from 6 I think or maybe 3 from 6?? I'll get my handbook out

Trouble is Matt, i cant make the COBRA round at the mo due to being away with work, so that was going to be my 1 dropped round.

No worries tho, ill go with what ever the majority vote for.

After the ruling has been clarified by Craig, i think our options should be put to vote on here.

We normally run to the 50% plus 1 so if we drop rounds such as GNR and saundersfoot then the ELECTRIC REGIONAL CHAMPIONSHIP would consist of CALDICT COBRA TALYWAIN AND SWANSEA So as per the above you would be required to do 3 round to count for your license grade

Under Normal circumstances the chairman of the 1/0th section likes the electric regionals to be sorted by the end of august And then the end of season OUTDOOR finals for f2 and f3 are held in september however sometimes they run passed this suggested cut off date

With respect H, no-one is suggesting we change the season for good or any future year for that matter - its just a possible answer to extend this season a couple of weeks or so, due to the two cancellations we have had, so we can fix them in and get some local racing in.

I cant see what problem that would cause ?

We are only looking to reschedule or cancel if required Saundersfoots Round

After a discussion with Paul Knight last evening He has stated that Gnr wont be holding a round this year

I was hoping Ian Ford would be able to run his round on 26th of this month thus sorting that problem However he has not confirmed this as yet

Are there many people planning on doing the F2's & F3's this year ? Held at Silverstone & Coventry respectively
