I was thinking more along the lines of drivers in region rather than posts on here, but it is quiet!!
At the start of the year there seemed loads of interest in regionals, the SEN series and club racing in East and at the moment all the talk has lead to not a lot of numbers

It is strange about the numbers as Mid East had 80 odd I think at their last regional, but last year were struggling to get into double figures.
I think in the region there are quite a few off roaders it's just getting everyone to turn up to the same meeting at the same time, then I reckon we could hit 50. I appreciate that travelling is not so cheap and that everyone has other commitments out side of car racing but it would be good to see everyone that races off road at a meeting in the East of England. I couldn't really care where it is or what type of meeting just to get a lot of drivers together would be a start!!

I beilive that the regional has lost the plot and not many people are interested in gaining a grading.
The location of the regionals have put some people off as well after it was originally going to be one at eastrax and one at MERC. I know we lost Eastrax but no further consultaion was done that i am aware of. I am really missing my racing at the moment but other thinks have to take priorty over racing. I think that the region needs to re think what people actually want to do and not get to the sitution we are at now where everyone is divided. Hopefully i haven't spoken out of turn but this is how it appears to me currently. Neilos

I am not sure the grading thing comes into it, if people want to race they will. At the AGM that was held at the start of the year there was plenty of oppurtunity for people to put across ideas and views on racing, formats, trophies, points, and increasing numbers in the area and what is being done now is what was agreed on by the 15 or so people that were at that meeting. As for the location I know they are far from ideal, as the East of England does cover a large area but the region is at a loss with clubs that 1) Have timing equipment 2) Have an off road track 3) are BRCA registered Hence the clubs hosting the regionals were and still are as far as I am aware the only clubs that can satisfy the above!!
