As one of the racers (and trainee CoC), I just wanted to echo what has been said, it was a great event.
I got involved in the recruitment of drivers, specifically sourcing experienced racers we knew via the Track Attack race club forum and friends on FB, so they knew the format of a race day, take instruction and keep the speeds down (easier said than done).
The response was great and it grew from an initial 6 cars and drivers to over 12 (possibly bigger grid than some clubs will see this year...), drivers were keen to give something back to the Marshals, without you guys we are not going racing.
I hope this format becomes more widespread, not just for the training of Marshals, but as it gives the drivers a much better understanding of the varied roles the Marshals train for.
Thank you to all that organised and took part, hope to see you again next year.
regards
Gareth (rollover Polo)
