Knowing your being watched does also help with rule breaks, and does help with keeping the calm when some take things 'more seriously' than others! But the job of being a ref is a thankless task and as you say...it needs people to step up and offer to do it!

This all seems a bit wooly to me, either we run to BRCA rules or we don't. Yatton have not applied to run a South West Regional meeting as our track does not meet BRCA regional rules which we were told the south west were running to. I don't beleive you should pick and choose what rules you abide to and what you dont. If you have to have a track that is BRCA Regional compliant then you also need to have referees and scrutineering to check motors and batteries as all BRCA Regional rules should apply.
The rules can be found here for those that want some bedtime reading........... http://www.brca.org/index.php?q=cont...13-rules/18573 I am not for or against running BRCA rules, I just think a decision needs to be made on whether we are running to them or not. This will make things clear for everyone. |

hehe...it's only wooly because this is a public forum with open discussion!!!
I'm sure the regional reps know what they are doing and will let us know in due course if anything is changing from previous years. I've not done SW regionals before so don't know what rules they apply currently!

I think when it involves drivers licence grades then you should follow BRCA regional rules that are set for the region.
And if you dont have scruitineering and referees, what is to stop people cheating or taking everyone out on the track. Bit extreme in most cases I know, but drivers shouldn't be able to gain from it and likewise drivers shouldn't be able to loose there license grading from other peoples gain. Regionals are a bit more than an open or club meeting

You are right this should be and will be decided by the South West Regionals committee. I was just adding my 2 pence worth
All I really know is that Yatton have not put in to hold an event as we don't think we are large enough but should we be asked we would consider it Quote:
