Would have been a sensible idea for fairness,

or since all other 5 rounds of championship are on Astro just use the astro track and put to bed the novelty dirt track idea and leave it for the 8th boys to play on.

At MMRX a gang of us were all cursing the track since SCT's being lighter than 1/8ths do not go well over the speedhump jumps, we were all using different random guess tyres and non of us were happy with them and some if us did a recce meeting there the week before where we tested every dirt tyre we could get hold of so was relieved it was pulled in the end.

I'm not anti-dirt racing... RHR Dirt for oOple Twelve was one of the best meetings and tracks i've ever raced on with SCT and all fair and square because we had same tyres... plus 3 days of racing makes the tyre cost acceptable, its bloomin expensive when you can get a 5 meeting seasons spikes for similar money!

Not exactly encouraging drivers into a championship with extra costs for just 1 meeting is it?
