I had an email to agree with the handicap system and did not see it as a problem.
In my mind it was no different to the John Taylor system run by SEMSEC over the past years.

I am sure Bill and his crew enjoyed the challange of running between the 2 venues, and it gave Bessy a good test.

To sum it up our team thought it a great weekend and well run with lots of entertainment for family and friends, including a party in the Kentagon saturday night.
Hi Rob, It wasn't the handicapping system that we didn't understand but the fact that we didn't know it was a handicap until the grid sheet was published on Sun afternoon. I have a copy of an email(from MSV) that states clearly that the Allcomers Race would NOT be a handicap. Just a problem of communication and, as I said,it will be ironed out for next year and was of little consequence to this.

I couldn't agree more with your comments concerning what an excellent event it was and, like Goodwood, this event could grow into a premier themed event of the year.As has been said it would be good to get the Super/Mighty Mini's on the programme as well, cos you can never get enough of the Classic Mini!
