does this include sidecars as word has it their natioanls NI rounds are the first two rounds of the tri series

This thread should be entertaining Personally I would prefer the proposed format (inc Minefield) as 4 rounds aren't really a championship IMHO.
(don't think 5 is enough either...but that's about as good as it gets)

Awesome looks great! Shame we dont get to go to Teretonga, I dont like going down there but the track is so much better than levels. Cant have everything though!

[Maido]

Ahh well, hope you all got your share of free pizza and beer while you could.
Gunna be hard justifying racing for me now.

bugger i'm going to miss Teretonga too

[DerekP]

Less than impressed by the dropping of Teretonga...one of the better tracks around IMHO.
Would be very interested in hearing the logic involved in the decission making process...

Yip,

I can answer that seeing as it was me that made the decision,

As the organiser for that round last year completely ignored the format arranged during a meeting with all organisers for that series as well as failed to answer any correspondence leading up to the round and then all but told me to F,,k off when I approached him about it on the friday and has since not answered my requests since the series finished for info I need to organise the 2014 series
I have lost faith in him and despite me talking to the club president and him intervening and things showing no sign of improving,I have been forced to organise the series differently,I even went to the lengths of asking another club to run the round down there and was refused,To date I have still not received the required info I needed from them and the series is now already running behind schedule because of it,End of story really,I'd be reasonably stupid to think I was going to get a different result from the same people really.
