Mike, I agree. Incidentally, the rear end is pure DB2 shape!
Thanks for posting photo, Brian. I'm in the process of writing a report up for the FISCAR website on our race. I think that we got the mix about right but now have to build on the gridsize. I agree with all those comments that say we should support this meeting. It's horrendously expensive to hire the GP circuit and MGCC deserve every accolade for continuing to do so. |

I have to take issue with Nick over the race admin team. As I was not competing I volunteered to help in the office. Now I have the best part of 40 years experience of running rallies and speed events so I was pleased to be able to see how things worked for race meetings. Firstly the team at signing on have been doing it for many years and are mainly the wives of the senior officals. I thought they did a great job as usual. They give up three days to make the event run slickly so I don't understand the comment re accomodation.
I would suggest to Nick that he joins them when he has a day off, or join those "bossy" folk in orange who do a wonderful job despite all us stupid drivers who don't read the Finals! Much of what I did was finding drivers who had failed to fully complete their entry forms with important things like class or emergency contacts. You would be surprised how long that list was! Then you get drivers who retired in race 1 coming in and asking if they can have their entry fee returned for race 2! The MGCC are the last one make club to run a series of race meetings and its the fourth biggest meeting at Silverstone after the GP, MGP and Classic. Long may it continue! Nick if you think you can do better please get in there and show us! |

Graeme as I have said elsewhere in this post I thoroughly enjoyed the event and have huge amounts of praise for those who organised it and who helped make the event run smoothly.
I am also aware how easy it is to criticise without having the benefit of the know how of organisation. I am not one to hide behind an electronic communication and would be very happy to chat through any feedback if you think it would be helpful. At the same time perhaps you could enlighten me from an organisers perspective? |
