Default New Committee

Hey Guys,

Just a quick heads up, I know its never really been made clear who the club committee is. So after last nights AGM this is the line up.

- Darren Wales (Chairman) -- Dwales1
- Roger Wood (Treasurer) -- The Race Controller
- Simon Divanzo -- Sicoe
- Rob Mills -- Robm (I think thats his oOple ID)
- Matt Coleman -- Coleman758
- Mike Powel -- Minke

If you have any Problems/Suggestions/Query's we are the guys to speak too. Hopefully we can carry on pushing the club forward!

Cheers!

We may need to tweak the wording before we look to distribute, plus we are moving into the winter series which will be indoor, so we could either produce one for winter or one that combines the two.

great work though pal.

it is really great how so many are getting in on the idea of promoting the club further.

Darren

Nice work Chris. It'd need to be for 2012, since we'll be indoor until then.

Nice job on that poster, would have liked to see a 3 wheeled 'rango in there though .

Looking forward to the outcome with the council. The negotiating angle of our national standard track needing actual matching facilities, the overall positivity of getting what we need and not settling for what we have was great. The new venue sounds good too. I've never been there, but if there are any pics of the site taken that would be nice.

Currently working on trying to sort out race steward hi vis vests and hi vis marshall vests for the kids. Keeping them safe and organised has been something thats been needed for a while.

Default vests

There must be about 25 vests down at the track.
A carrier bag full in race control and those in the lockup.

I know you all mean well but you really haven't got a clue as to national standard there's only rob on the committee with a f grade.
There arent racers at bury metro just blokes who want a bash about and free child care on a Sunday afternoon so what facilities do you need?? Some cots and a couple of nannies I reckon

Bury metro is a laughing stock there's no discipline or track sense with the current group of bashers who attend.

There's only you lot taking yourselfs seriously while the others laugh at the way things have gone the lunatics truely have taken over the asylum!!

Hope it all works out lads I truly do and I look forward to racing at goshen again soon

Facilities such as -
Parking and track access
Water and electricity
Toilets
Rostrum location
More efficient track barriers

Still reading my folder, looking for where it says you need to have a good F grade to run a club. The AGM was very positive, everyone there had ideas on how to make an expanding club in a very healthy position better

That's all going to stop.

I think the new committee will work well, A good mix of new and old people should really push the club forward.

We are in a meeting at the moment with the bury council regarding better facility like the parking, Like the electricity.

I would like to point out only a few members were at the AGM, if people don't like the new committee maybe people should have made the effort to get to the AGM.

I wouldnt expect you to understand mike it was only last year you was turning up not even to race but to just have a cheeky bash with your nitro monster truck on the track in between rounds and quite honestly being a nuisance. Look how far you have come now your mother must be so proud

Look at the pm sent to me by a sponsored driver and used to be a regular:-

I must admit though that the high level of driving isnt there anymore. The new commers seem to be doing as they like too! I'm off to Batley this Sunday, they've gone indoors now. Should be a good meeting. Are you doing Chadderton?


Understand now mike ???
So wipe the spit from your mouth and don't take things so personal my odd little friend

I'm not taking anything personally, but you are always being negative when the opportunity to have your say has passed.

You should also get your facts straight about my nitro stuff. I used my 1/10 Hpi MT2 once on the track for a heat and my 1/8 HPI savage NEVER went on the track, just bashed around the field and those cars were only brought when I first started. Nobody asked me to stop and I would, of course, if asked

As I've mentioned, I think there should be a safe and better structured environment for the youngsters who turn up regularly. Thats what I'm looking to improve.

This doesn't need to turn into another heated discussion.
That was another point in the AGM.

The clubs has had issues this year yes, But the club is in a good position.
Roger had done a damn good job, but hes getting pulled in all directions, With the new committee we are going to try and spread that load more.

and lets have an even better 2012, SO leave the negativity.
