I agree wholeheartedly with Ranter.

As I see things there is no animosity between the vast majority of VSCC members and the HSCC. There is, however, a feeling amongst VSCC members, especially those who do not compete in ‘high profile’ cars, that the VSCC is going in a direction where it wants to become a high profile race promoter (with the accompanying financial risks) to the exclusion of these ordinary cars so that this year the number of racing opportunities for these cars is fewer than in the past. In past years the Second VSCC Silverstone presented opportunities for all types of racing – this year there are only 4 VSCC races over 2 days. So, any animosity comes from the fact that VSCC members would rather have a 2nd VSCC meeting at Silverstone (or somewhere else) than a shared one. But that doesn’t necessarily rule out a 3rd shared meeting – a la Coys.

I will be flagging at the weekend and hope to wave flags at Ranter if he manages to pass the fire truck this time.
