I feel a brick wall with a target painted on it, is called for.

You may choose to bash your head in the bullseye for as long as you see fit.

The issue is that the "sport" if you can call it that, is still being run as a sport, when in fact, on a circuit, it is an entertainment, and should be seen as that. I cannot comment on rallying as I have no experience in this area, however I agree with your comments regarding the costs levied on small club rallies compared to WRC or national events.

Until the MSA, the circuits, and the clubs, all wake up and realise that this sport of ours is in competition with that dratted invention "footing the ball" for viewers, and does something about it, we are, in the words of Private Fraser, Dooooooomed!

Sam, may you continue your "crusade", more power to your elbow as they say in the blazer wearing circles!! (though there is where much of the problem is)
