Its a good club run by decent people they have other championships still going strong its just the two for thr pre 74's and pre 83's that are suffering. I think it is as much to do with the rocketing value of cars from this era as much as anything else. If you build an old RS2000 for example 10 or 12 years ago and it stands you in 4 or 5 grand then suddenly it becomes worth 10 times that what do you do? Risk a 30k machine on a club championship which is a bit down the pecking order or cash in, I think this is a major contributing factor to what is now happening in some spheres of motorsport. Even my 2nd Gen car is now coming into the frame, a mate of mine just got 17k for a road car and it was nice but not perfect! Maybe I'll sell up and do a budget 2 litre for their new series be a whole lot less grief thats for sure!
