The good....43 drivers booked and raced tonight!!!:thumbsup:
The bad....with all the different classes that showed up to race we only got 4 rounds of racing in!
The ugly...the 36 people who thought it would be a great idea to disappear off home leaving all the tables out, all the chairs they'd been using out, and all the rubbish lying around for the few who did stay around to tidy up for them! The early finish you all enjoyed meant the few who packed down had a late night instead...NOT GOOD!
To those 7 who helped pack down, a massive thanks for your help!!!
To those who arrived, raced and left again....
The club, like all RC car clubs, is run by volunteers. This means they are just like you...they've worked all week, have journeys of varying lengths home (mine is normally 45 mins, last night it 1hr 10 thanks to road closures), and also have families, partners, jobs, etc, etc to get home to that night or be up for the next day, and some even have medical conditions to consider.....but they still do it, and like you, they do not get paid for going racing on a Friday night!
So...in future weeks...at the end of the night before you leave, how about stopping to think about helping the club for a minute as we don't always have time to think about asking (though it would be lovely not to have to ask ;)). Help us out and tidy up your own mess and HELP PACK UP! 5-10 mins of your time save the club many minutes in locking up before our strict deadline.
The consequences of this....if you do not respect the club, and help us get locked up in time, THERE WILL BE NO CLUB
Rant over! :woot::D
