2008 Mid East Regionals
Hello
I'm the current Mid East Off Road Regional Rep. During 2006 / 7 season we struggled to find venues to run the off road regional championships in the Mid East resulting in using just Holbeach in 2006 and Holbeach / Eastrax in 2007. If any Mid East club would like to hold a regional in 2008 then please contact me eith via email or call me on 07887 597051. The only stipulation I would ask for is the £1 of each entry to each meeting is give to the Mid East Region to pay for end of season trophies. I hope to hear from you soon Jim |

Hi Jim,
I know Broxtowe and Bridgeford are wanting to host regionals next year. Have they not contacted you yet? Spoke to Andy last week at Broxtowe and pointed him in your direction. I am not on the committy so its not my place to apply but I know they would like too. Richard. |

Hi jim I am going to push hard to get one at West Bridgford Model Car Club. Just the old guard of the committee to get past But i think it won't be a problem I have sorted a nice venue for us which should do. Anyone got a rostrum we can borrow? Stick us down provisionally for one and I will let you know what transpires.

Hi, I was wondering if the holbeach indoor regional date of 6th Jan was set in stone, it clashes with worksop indoors thats all and the clubs aren't too far apart...

James, going on what it says on the Holbeach website it looks as though they are the dates, is it only the one on the 6th that clash's? I'm in the same situation, am booked in for the Worksop indoor series but would like to qualify for and compete in the national finals.
Going on what happened in summer we may get a place without qualifying. Thats if the Mid East don't send a full team. Can anybody give us any advice? How many would we need to attend to qualify? Rich. |

Yeah thats my concern, i missed the first regional of four as we were in Paris for the Petit race, presume its best three of four so of course if i miss the one on the sixth to do Worksop ive had it!
They had one regional to qualify last year which i won so hoefully they might look kindly on me if i only manage two this year, not sure how much discretion is allowed..? |

Guys.
The best advice I can give you is to keep in touch with your regional rep! (Jim Balls in this case). You would be amazed what he can achieve. Often an RR can get 20 drivers in for an event even if he only has 15 places and all are taken by qualifiers. The key thing to do is let him know you wish to go to the Indoor Finals event - as the host region it is likely he will have places to spare. Regards |

If you keep a eye out on here no doubt he will be posting them within the next week or so. My guess would be that the first one will run in the first or second weekend in April. Rich. |
