I think maybe some of the regulars just need to stop for a bit, then the others would HAVE to lay the track out

I wasnt really hoping to turn it into a slagging match, and was just trying to get some more regulars coming, we only had 15 on friday (and made a loss on the hall rent) and the problem seems to be that we get a lot of non-locals coming from miles around, so they leave earlier to get home in time (which is understandable really).

Setting up some sort of mini-championship to keep people coming seems a simple start, with a cheap prize at the end!! The other option is to try and find a better and cheaper hall for rent, which is more local to Hereford itself. This is a risky option though, as I would say that half of all racers are guests in effect not members, so would we get more racers coming locally to keep the costs covered? Tricky decision.

I agree with your comments about groups of racers Terry, this is exactly what is happening. I dont like shouting at people to get involved, its not my style, but the 'take no s**t' attitude of John Robson at stafford always works!!
