Back in the day it used to be one of the last races of the year - late September/ early October: I don't remember ever getting soaked or frozen.

Here starteth the campaign to shuffle it back 'til late Summer.
750MC was at Donington on 1 October last year - The rain started as we came out of our pre-race briefing at lunchtime and continued unabated for the entire afternoon - washing out the whole afternoon race programme - leaving us and a lot of other racers somewhat unimpressed One qualy session isn't much for a full days entry fee......

Lets face it, its Britain - we can get lousy weather anytime of the year.
