I'll do Hillingdon II unless anybody else wants to volunteer...
 
I intend to make sure that the racing accommodates the AGM rather than the other way around... Big smile
 
It will however mean getting started on time (first race at 11am sharp...)
Any offers of help will be welcome...

Thanks Ian!
 
After forgetting last time (Embarrassed) I've taken the precaution of making sure I've written down a note of your kind organisatorial offer.

I am happy with variety. That isn't what we have if we keep doing half hour each way. That is  just running the same race twice in 1 day. Very boring.

That format probably doesn't suit every circuit we race on but on some of the circuits (for example Hillingdon) the track is very different in the opposite direction so what you get is effectively two races on different tracks in one day... Good value in my opinion.
 
I am planning to go with 30 minutes each way at Hillingdon II in October partly for that reason and partly to give people a chance to compare their performance with earlier in the year.
 
If anybody else would like to take over the organising and do something different that will be fine with me and I'll be happy to step aside...

qoute"If anybody else would like to take over the organising and do something different that will be fine with me and I'll be happy to step aside..."

If I only had the time!!! then you'd have somthing to really get worried about!!!

200m sprits

50min races with hot laps (off the bell at 15-20-35-40mins, each hot lap worth 5% each just to make you race for it.......

but then the chances of having the time .......
