Re: Race Entry Fees
In view of the response to my reply I wonder how we are going to encourage clubman riders, the future of our National racers if can't give them the experience of racing on a circuit - or do we just accept that when the National riders retire we will see the end of racing. Clubman racing allows for riders to compete against their peers and those who show promise can update to National class racing.

On the analogy of golf I would like to point out that I appreciate that golf can be very expensive but that is merely a way to keep up the snobbish attitude of golf clubs were the social stigma is more important than the game. My son was put up for junior membership of a golf club and was turned down, several juniors were admitted that year who didn't know a wood from an iron!! however they were of the correct social standing. My son eventually was poached by the club when he broke another course record!!!
Do we want to make our sport exclusive to those who could afford exhorbitant costs and miss out
on the potential Joey Dunlops, with respect Joey came from a fine family background but I don't think there was a big nest egg behind him which could have underwrote his racing.

If you wish to see the end of racing as we know it keep up your good work!!!
