Spring National Entries

Harewood Spring National Season opener on 17th April
I know it's early season yet, but entries are looking a bit thin. There's a discount now for early entries so if anyone's looking for a great climb to start the season get your enties in now.
Particularly need to get more entries for Class 5A upto 1100 race cars! So far only myself and Graham Smith entered - great opportunity to win the class if you turn up and beat us!!
Unfortunately there's a clash with Three Sisters Longton meeting so I guess we won't be seeing Craig (Powers) and the Lancashire raiding party over as they usually enter this event. Great shame

Richard

Yes, indeed. We will be at 3-Sisters. However we will be at Harewood for Day 1 of the May event

April 17th is an unfortunate clash of events which was probably avoidable with a bit of inter-club dialogue & cooperation. Mind you the late Easter has caused a few events to be moved in the calendar.

Have a good season Richard.

The lateness of the Easter Bank Holiday has managed to create a log-jam of fixtures up & down the country not just in the North West. Isn't it about time that the Easter week-end was fixed at a specific time i.e. the first week-end in April; that should make everyone happy.

Yeah I agree Craig. It's a shame about the clash really as I'm doing both Harewood and Longton Champs and this compromises my scoring in the Longton Championship.

You have a great season too

See you in May

Richard

I would be a lot happier if all Bank Holidays were cancelled and give the people who do work an extra week off..............

Might be better if we had given the bankers 365 days off . we wouldnt be in the mess we are in now

And perhaps members of Parliament as as well

You leave the poor old bankers alone, they don't know where their next millions coming from. Our works is shut for three days in Easter week. Today I volunteered to work on the Tuesday and RoyaleffingWedding day but was told that the gates will be barred and bolted and that my 'epass' wont work anywhere.
