EIR 2011
As the previous years, the Belgian club BRCC will be organising their Euro Indoor Race (or EIR) again, during the winter of 2011.
The track will be at the same location as the two previous years and the same build: an indoor off-roadisch astrotrack with challenging jumps. But BRCC has managed to make a deal with the city of Charleroi and the hangar has now become a permanent track! The place is now called Black Country Arena (something to do with the old cole-mines and Steel-industry in the surrounding area) and it has it's own website at http://www.blackcountryarena.com. The guys have worked hard and BCA now has a complete pit-area where all VIP-members have their own private pit-spot (We had like 100 VIP-memberships and they were all sold out within a matter of weeks.) There is a sound-system, toilets (so no need to do that 20 miles-walk anymore ), electricity at each VIP-spot, a bar, internet ... and there is more on the schedule. Over the winter-time, BRCC will be organising their Winter-challenge at the track, with 5 challenges. We will also organise the first challenge of the 2011 Belgian-Dutch-Championship (1/10th offroad) again. ... aaand off course also the EIR-race. We suspect that registration will go very fast again, this year, so ... On october 8th, 21.00h CET an registration-email-address will be published on www.blackcountryarena.com. pass on the news!

Registrations were opened on Octobre, 8th and within a day we were almost fully booked.
JP is now very busy taking note of all details and sending e-mailmessages to all drivers in which they can find all details regarding the payment. I received a large list of UK-pilots from Nathan Ralls and Bart Phoenix Vanechelpoel and I passed them on to the rest of the team. We had anticipated the interest from abroad and were very pleased with the very positive UK-participation during our 24H-endurance-race last year and so we gladly reserved about 20+ spots for UK-drivers so everyone got his ticket in. But we're full now. About now, the only free spots available are in the SC-class. So if you have a SC-truck lying around that needs some racing: HURRY ==> eir2011@blackcountryarena.com We will now wait for payments rolling in. To confirm your registration, you will have to do the payment following the next instructions :
Thanks for your trust BRCC Team

mmmm doing the opposite would not be OK I think. The track opens on Thursday, qualifying rounds start on fryday ... A significant number of the drivers will not be able to take the day off for the race and will only arrive on saturday. So people that were able to take these days off might have an advantage over the people who only arrive on saturday. But now, everyone is able to test the track and figure out a decent setup. And knowing our drivers, decent setups will certainly be available over the internet before the competition-weekend. (I'll track them down and post links here)

So you think it is Ok for people that are able to take the day off for extra practice, or for professional drivers to have a "slight" advantage over "regular people that have to work on thursday, friday?
and about locals having an advantage .. isn't that allready the case in about 95% of all competitions where there is a permanent circuit? and what to think about clubs who organise a test-competition the year or 6 months before the big event? I agree that often the track is slightly changed when that is possible, but not always AND we are a small bunch of guys, and building such a track is quite a large task. All boarding is 50% rebuild in wood every time we change the track-layout. Extra advantage is that the track is now tested and fully ready before he event. Thinking about it .... I just realise I should really get used to the fact that whatever one does, there will always be critics. It's never ok for everyone. We're not perfect.

Hello,
The level of English drivers is so high that Belgium drivers need many training to do a D Do not forget that the track of BRCC is permanent and is therefore normal that the track is already. @+ JP |

Most permanent circuits don't use the exact same layout for weeks before the event, they use a different layout so no one gets to use the track before the event. Sure there will always be an advantage for local drivers whatever the track layout but it's completely wrong to use the EXACT layout prior to the event. If you can't make the practice day that's just the way it is, you can't expect to be able to practice for days and days just because you can't make the one designated practice day
How about anyone that's practiced on it already not being able to come along on Thursday to let the rest of us catch up a little? ........... bet the locals would love that |

I think it's pretty fair to critisize the fact that people can practice for ages above the majority and it could be ok for everyone, you just don't allow practice until the designated day, then all is fair
