Roll up, roll up...
Don't miss the opportunity to be part of this historical event.
Help is needed for the 1st race in the NYERRL at Stillington/Sheriff Hutton.
Required:
- 4 drivers, all with BC licenses;
- 4 marshals (tbc by R Houghton);
- 2 people to help with signing on; and
- a couple or so at the finish line.
Please reply to this thread if you can help out.
All help is very much appreciated.
Thanks
Martin

I am happy to help out at this. I don't have a BC licence or a car so can't offer to be a driver but can do anything else required.

I was hoping to sign up for this one but the last few places look to have just gone! I'd be happy to help with signing on at the start. Haven't done it before so would need supervision!
Thanks, Thomas.

I've made the same mistake, waited too long. So I guess you have another volunteer
Prefer something car based in case of bad weather

Thanks to everyone who has volunteered for this so far.
So, we have:
2 Drivers - Dave C and Damian
3 Marshalls - Cam, Andy T, Duncan
1 sign-oner - Thomas
We definitely need:
2 more drivers
1 more marshall
A couple of bodies at the finish
So, don't think you've missed out because the start list is full, you can still take part...
Cheers
Martin

Racers,
We are now less than a month away from this race and we haven't got enough support to ensure that it's going to go ahead.
Melly has volunteered himself as an additional driver, but apart from that we're no further forward.
So we need:
1 more driver;
1 more marshall; and
at least a couple of people at the finish line.
Can we spread the word and see if we can drum up a few more helpers?
Cheers
Martin

I was also hoping to race but left it too late.
Happy to drive. I have a BC licence Martin.
Just a thought- if you can get enough helpers it would be useful to have someone waving a flag at the right- handler in Farlington. We were approaching it in excess of 50kph yesterday and at that speed a bunch meeting an unsuspecting oncoming car doesn't bear thinking about...

Unless something unexpected occurs I should be able to help.

We still need more help! By my estimate we need at least two more bodies just to have the bare minimum. Please spread the word. I haven't really thought of a contingency plan as I was confident that we had enough willing helpers within our race section.
I suppose, worst case scenario, we'll have to cancel. Let's hope there's no need for that.
Cheers
Martin

C'mon folks! Martin's stuck his hand up to do the lion's share of the work and stress, it just needs a few people to put one evening into it. I drove lead car at both our evening races last year and it's good fun. You see the race close up, and get a buzz from being part of a well-organised team. The BC commissaire crew are fun to work with, and so too are Rich and the traffic management blokes. Give it a go!
