The spectators series
The dunlop great and british festivals appears to have failed to intreast the spectator, as said in various other threads.
I think it would be a good idea to choose our favourite 8 or so club racuing series that we woud like to see race together throughout the year. Mine: Dunlop motorsport new saloon car championship Pickup trucks Legends Ford fiestas LMA saloons Caterham graduates (2x15min races each - not 30 mins please) Mini 7 Mighty minis |

Just Visit castle combe for great racing and big grids on a regular basis..
I love caterhams ( not every one's cup of tea ) so like the Festival at Donington i could watch them all day. My favorite 8 championships Brscc , 750 mc Or barc are ( apart from caterhams ) Production Bmw's Stock hatch urs ff2000 lma saloons Ginetta G20's Porsche Club Mr2's and Combe FF1600 These would never race together but this would be my ideal package |

Need a good variety to get public interested - would be good to get a mixture of old and new - have some of the HSCC classes mixed in. Casual spectators need to see some exotic cars and big noisy single seaters to get them to come back regularly

Locosts!!
40 car grids, and very (very) close racing. Constant lead changes, always action right down to the last car. One of the regular 750MC commentators has said it's the best series to watch in the UK. But I am biased. |
