My personal opinion is that before James (or the EERC team) goes ahead and changes things for next year they (EERC) should have a drivers/team meeting in perhaps December where eveyone who has something to say on the way things are run should voice their thoughts. James and his team have done superbly and have made the Britcar race days something to be proud of and next year will be excellent-BUT, EERC should not go too far and push for too much. A series has been made which at present seems to fit the bill in most peoples minds, give or take a few tweaks regarding cars which seem to be able to run in some classes though should actually be in another ect, etc. It happened to Eurocar where a brilliant series was completely ruined by another sister series joining it for bigger more powerful cars...it died because the new cars cost too much money and it also watered down the entries in the original series-greed took over. It now seems the Radical series is now heading the same way, superb grids, close and fast racing-great stuff. but then a more powerful version came up and a new series for them was born. It then depleted the original series and was also much more expensive to run...it is now seeing very small grids for both series and now a new bigger, faster car is around!...greed is all it is and it never works. EERC should listen to the entrants before making any wrong decisions and leaving what is, and will be the best saloon series in Britain as being just one of those saloon series that died a death due to wrong doings. An AGM is the correct route for James and the team to thrash out any possible problems before it gets out of hand...phew, thats my thoughts at least!
