Default 2011/12 WRCA Indoor Series

I know that the outdoor series isn't over yet!
But, if no one has any objections, I was thinking about organising it again this year and wondered what dates we would have to avoid clashing with.

There are the Micro nationals to avoid - as both Swansea and Caldicot are hosting one round each. (please feel free to enter them!)
F2 & F3,4,5s
anything else?....

Throughout the winter there are several dates available and not many date clashes like the outdoor season.

How about each club holds 2 rounds each, it would then make it a more realistic series with 6 rounds and then 4 to count?

I think, first of all, you will need to ask the clubs if they are willing to hold a round of a winter series, then what classes to include.

In an ideal world that may be possible, we'll see what the clubs say.

Totally agree Steve, but based on previous experience it's far easier to say:
"these are the available dates, which (if any) would you be willing to host a round?"

Talking of classes, what would everyone be interested in?
I was thinking of the usual 10th 2wd & 4wd plus Micros (2wd & 4wd depending on entries), but is there anything else?
Trucks, Rallycross, etc......

I think you should cater for all 'off-road' classes up to 10th, as long as there are enough to generate a small heat.

Hmm, I've seen newbies with RTR gear do better than newbies with the best kit going! I'd be more inclined to have a newbie class rather than a RTR class, but having said that when we sort the heats people get placed by ability anyway.
