The combined Junior/Senior Classic Race was not part of the original schedule, it was merely a solution to a bigger problem. I would imagine (as we have not had the schedule confirmed yet) that the statement refers to the original schedule from this year, with the new regulations included.
The weather problem at the MGP is not a new thing, I remember the 100mph gales and persisting rain which cleared the paddock in the mid-eighties, we just have to deal with these things as they arise!
Cheers,

At this point the clubs hands are tied as they don't know what subsidy they will get in view of the current VAT shortfall, I am afraid that does not help us. as i suspect alot of people like us have to start spending the money now, so we can afford it. if they drop one of our races then that would be alot of wasted money. All we can do is have faith in the club as i am sure they want to run every race.

Thank you for pointing out the combined race was not part of the original schedule Caroline , I may be getting on but I do realise that.
The original point raised was in regard the vague mention of possible alterations to schedules, unconfirmed as yet. The statements issued could be read (even by the age'd) the schedule run in 2009 may not be changed....2010 will be 'similar'...similar does not mean the same!
The previous post mentions the full, prior to disruption, format will be run in 2010. This has yet to be confirmed, fingers crossed.
I hope that any confirmation comes sooner rather than later, competitors need to start making costly arrangements and can ill afford to start down this route without surety.
