I support 2 longer racers (not many spectators there anyway, and would most of them be supporters of the riders?), which must reduce time on the day sorting out race starts.
Use long track - (more fun / makes better use of our tyres)
Streetstock & F1 at beginning of day so they don't miss out.
F1 given slightly Longer races. - They should be the Flagship.
Shaun Harris as commentator. (When the flag drops, the Bullshit Starts!)
GP125's in F3 is GOOD. (from a streetstocks point of view)
Save the Wet T-shirts for prize giving at the end of the year. (might get more people attend)($5 cover charge if you didn't attend last year!)
A little thing, but....
I don't see the need for 1st / 2nd / 3rd certificates at each round. Ok, it doesn't cost much, but someone still has to organize it on the day, and to me .... it doesn't mean much after each round, but the Championship ones do at the end of the series.
Bit like my daughters netball. She might get a certificate for 'player of the day'. Nothing wrong with that, but she would also get a Trophy for 'player of the day'. That's a bit much, and makes the end of year trophies less significant.
Why not just give the Vic club Champion certificates at the end of the season? It's only club racing... but at 'Nationals' rounds I would feel differently and support 'Each Round' certificates.
Just my view.

Hi All
Thank you all for your awesome contributions to this thread. I however am in two minds about the wet T-Shirt competition only because of the contenders that maybe we will have to endure while digesting our lunch…lol, but in saying that lunchtime entertainment is not to be ruled out.
It’s almost impossible to please everyone and run a format that will actually work so we can deliver the whole Programme without chopping classes and reducing races, we try very hard to minimize this when considering the format.
Please don’t feel that your comments, discussion, or general banter has been in vain, it has not been and a lot of the ideas put forward will be discussed further to enhance the Winter Series at future meetings. As racers participating your input and feedback is needed and shouldn’t be just contained to a thread either. I am, along with the rest of the Committee always approachable for you to share experiences and ideas, yes we will take the good with the bad and wear it on the chin.
Through some of your suggestions I hope that you will see changes at the next meeting albeit small ones but overall should make the meeting flow so we can achieve the format that we propose to run which I might add has been back and forth through the wonderful timing machine.
We have a great bunch of people supporting us, our present and past Committee, dedicated experienced Volunteers that succumb and work through trying situations, now hopefully the continued and valued feedback/support from the people that give us the awesome racing action.
Shaun…I got your PM re long track and again this has not fallen on deaf ears…Choppa you are not last because you are superior…this is Club level racing and the amount of cross entry that goes between classes has to be considered, some of which are racers that are wanting to be in your position and are fighting hard to achieve this dream. The September meeting will bring new dynamics again to the format with the dear I say it Sidecars in the mix......![]()

Your picture's in my wallet and I'm sitting on it. And if that isn't love, I don't know what is
