St Eustache Endurance

Please clarify: Does the St Eustache Endurance count for points?

[Ashton Bond]

No.

And sadly, I'm now worried that this decision is really affecting attendance. We worked extremely hard to get this day added to the schedule, and at significant cost to our club. To date there are still only five teams. If this does not change, this will not happen a second time.

Hi Ashton,

Will we still run with five teams?
Would hate to show up and find out it's cancelled.
(Also, please confirm Bill got his shit together and registered us!)

Thanks,
Colin

Ashton, just curious, (I don't have a horse in the race) why would this round of endurance
not count for points? isn't it all part of the VRRA series?

[Ashton Bond]

For this week it is...

The issue was that this race was not on the schedule at the beginning of the season, and even though we talked about it during the season, it didn't become concrete until just before CTMP. So the complaint got raised by some of the teams that had already amassed points for the year in that because this round didn't exist at the start of the season, technically they didn't have time to prepare for it. So by having this round be points-bearing we were possibly putting some teams at the dis-advantage of not being able to go.

It's a valid complaint, but like all things ventured, there is a cost, and I'll be covering that in the member's only section along with some other topics, previous to the AGM.

For this week we have a 4 round series, and for this week we have a few teams that are supporting it. And this week, I'm going to go have fun racing it!

Does our endurance entry include any practice?
(Like 3 hours isn't enough). Just want to make sure it actually runs half decently.
