Thanks Reuben

Great days racings and some very close racing too. Just how it should be.

The 10.5 in the last final might have been slower but its was great fun!!!!

[stevemorris]

agreed, very good day and well run cheers reuben, really enjoyed it

[Reuben]

indeed 10.5s are like attaching a rocket to the car!

I didnt think we did to bad with them . But you do need to now change your sig to 10.5 - used it, but with added crashing!

Great to see everyone out and about for the last round of RRC.

a total of: 3 mini's, 6 ansmann, 18 stock, 9 pro-stock.

Hope to see you all for the next trophy meeting along with the RRC trophy presentations. Date TBC.

Oh and thanks simon again for hitting the mole hill and turning the tyre into an off-road track, made lap times a little difficult .

Rumor also has it that Mr Newton has found some speed again and is on winning form - taking the win for today and the Stock champ? Good work fella!

[Dave Chamberlain]

[yellowshark]

Not sure of ther results but congrats to Dan for winning the ProStock Senior championship and to Craig for winning the ProStock Junior Championship

[number1dan]

I cant find the results of the junior championship. Was there even a junior class?

[mattsedgley]

I think you'll find we didn't have a junior Championship! Well done to all of you!

Matt

[yellowshark]

If you go back to the Committee member posts on the subject earlier in the year and go to the Reality Racing website, you will find we do ;D

With reference to your junior championship query, this was what is posted in the championship details on the Reality Racing website.

Senior Class – Aged 15 and over on Sunday 8th March (RRC round 1).
Junior Class – Aged 14 and under on Sunday 8th March (RRC round 1).
Junior & Senior drivers will race together and both have the opportunity to win the overall championship.

To clarify:

The only difference between the junior & senior classes is the entrance fee. In each class juniors & seniors will race together competing in the same championship. Only one championship then.

Sorry if you fond this misleading but the majority understood what I meant.

Terry

[yellowshark]

The majority clearly doesn't include the club Chairman Terry ;D

Just to be absolutely sure, I have no issue on this. I am happy to follow the rules, just reserve the right to raise questions ;D
Putting "Juniors" on the web site league table (not timings) and on the trophies would be appropriate.



Questions are good, I'm sure you're not the only one who needed those answers.

I'll see what I can do, I agree the trophies should say Juniors not F2.
I don't fancy mine saying seniors though, I think we'll leave that bit out ;D ;D

[mattsedgley]

To Clarify the clubs position, we facilitate a championship, the rules of which are set by the sponsor of the Championship, in this case Terry from Reality Racing.

I cant see on the forum where you may have copied that text from, however if that's a PM sent between you and Keith, then can I suggest it remains that way and is not made public on the forum,

Looking at the date, it was obviously written a good few weeks before the start of this years Reality Racing Cup also there were no F1 and F2 classes agreed for this years RRC which makes the area even more grey, perhaps it relates to a the previous RRC? That combined with what appears to be an unclear quote as to who said what to who makes little progress forwards.

You must also acknowledge that at all rounds of the RRC this year, there have been no Junior trophies handed out at meetings, racers have been divided by class alone. As an example, someone with Simon Newbury's ability, racing against someone like Ross in a junior championship would leave both drivers with little close, on track, meaningful racing.

Can I suggest you take up any further issues with Terry, as he has laid down the rules and can guide you further with your query,

On a personal note, I really enjoyed the Reality Racing Cup this year, it seems such a shame to end it with an argument over a trophy and who is champion of what? Surely it's all about having fun, close racing and spending time with friends?
