Has this thought occurred to anyone...
It takes a huge amount of work to organise a National Series. As an organiser, you put lots of hours in; you do your very best; everyone comes up to you and is very polite on the day. Then, they get on here, whinge, moan, complain and generally slag off your track/site/organisation/etc. So you think "I can't be arsed anymore..." And then, people are surprised when Clubs don't apply... I think you lot should try running a Club for a year, including a National, and then I think you'd find you're less inclined to come on here with your comments about people's tracks and organisation and... Frankly, it's pathetic.

slowone, high horse come's to mind!
think you will find a hell of a lot of the posters in this thread have or still are heavily involved in clubs that are applying/have in the past run nationals so we do know what we are talking about, fully understand the work involved and enjoy banking the sometimes much needed £1000 the club get's paid to host an event!

Wow, you guys really should realise you are flogging dead horse's on this thread.
Its dissapointing if Southport doesn't get a national, I don't like the thought of traveling for hours to somewhere I could dislike, but "hey ho" there are other things in life more important - and I/we may just love the tracks. Id rather just chill, and wait for the app to be available, in the meantime the BRCA will make the right decision whatever it might be, then I will apply.

i'm not sure how you can say you'd travel hours to visit tracks like southport, bury and batley (as thats all we have up here who actually apply) unknown if you'd like them, or wonder if they'l be able to cope with a full weekend of racing and catering for people.
I can see chris's point, for us this year we will definately be going in to the unknown with clanfiends, eastrax, and cml hoping to have nationals, hopefully they'l provide a good weekend. Should be an interesting year none the less.

i can understand ur point of view totaly! but the first time 3 yrs ago i did the whole national series the closest track i had to me was kidderminster and that is 2 hours away on a good run. the likes of southport and bury metro in that first year were like 6-7 hours away and thats a fair drive u can well imagine! belgium this year was closer to drive lol. i for one am very pleased that the south have now got tracks and theres a few of them warrent national events. but personally i think there should be 2 in the north 2 in the mid and 2 in the south to get a fair spread for everyone sayin that though dont look look like thats goin to happen this year.
cheers grant williams

I wonder, could the BRCA influence any clubs to apply for 2009 to get that spread, or would that be expecting too much from them?

Chris, I think it's fair to assume that the committee does talk to the clubs about them applying for a national - bearing in mind that each region has a rep. You can't force them though. It's a lot of work to run a meeting, and many many good clubs/tracks are finding themselves short of people.

Righhhtttt.......no internet at home right now, so i just read through all this post and heres what im coming up with here!
1. to be honest, if clubs put in after the closing date and get a national, i personally will be slighty annoyed. reason; last year my club got kicked out of having one for not having a registered. fair enough. but if clubs now are saying you can put in after the date...then why wasnt i allowed last year? people were offering to pay the membership on the night for the club and it got kicked out. lets be fair, its not like im not going to pay for it...its not like you cant find me at race meetings. normally the loudest person there. 2. from my racer point of view, i want to see the best tracks.....beleive that you should be allowed to put in until you actually choose the tracks. whats the harm in that.....? 3. for the guy that questioned the space at cml..... have you seen the fields surrounding the track?????????? dont think 150 people will take up 12 acres  so now, lets just find out what the situation is regarding putting in for nationals and just shhhh bout it. lol Lee
