Dave W Posted November 3, 2010 Author Share Posted November 3, 2010 Where is the North Yorkshire venue? Might come along and spectate. Sorry, there will not be any provision for spectators as far as I am aware at either of the North Yorks sites. There was some discussion of a spectator stage at one of the Duns sites but I'm not sure if that's going to happen yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Snow White Posted November 4, 2010 Share Posted November 4, 2010 Any idea of cost yet, cos as with all things, unfortunately it is a factor? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave W Posted November 4, 2010 Author Share Posted November 4, 2010 We won't know for certain until the MSA have clarified their new regulations and agreed (or not) with our proposed interpretation of their new regulations. If they don't agree with our interpretation and don't give the necessary assurances we will need to seek insurance via other means which will probably increase the entry fee. As a guideline though last time the entry fee was £175 per vehicle. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
