Race Reports in 2015

Post by Mary Lindsay »

I am looking for volunteers for the 2015 race reports. (Yes, already!)

So far Tim and Sam Harrison, Greg Parnell and Dominic House have volunteered their services.

We had an excellent range of reports and styles in 2014 so let's match that in 2015.

Please email me via the contact page on the Challenge web site to volunteer and tell me which race you can write a report on.

Hi Bob,

The race series calendar is here:
http://www.morganchallenge.co.uk/Pages/ ... endar.html

This year the MSCC event is at Brands Hatch and not Donington and I suspect that is a bit off your usual patch?

We do have a round at Donington in October though, can you do that?

We also have a round at Rockingham.

Which of these of you fancy?

Mary at this remove I would not want to promise anything but Brands is within reach, just not the nicest journey, so I would expect to be there. Rockingham? haven't been there for years, another awful drive, and a soulless place to be, so doubtful. Donny is Ok.

Once he season is underway I will confirm with you what I can confidently undertake. Have the rates of pay gone up from last year? I'm still awaiting the cheque. :lol:

Thanks Bob, I will be in touch just before the beginning of the season when I have had offers from all those other volunteers….

As for rates of pay, rest assured you will receive the same amount as I do...

OK everyone it's arm-twisting time!

I want to organise my rota of race reporters so that we can be sure of timely and interesting reports for the 2015 season.

At the end of last year several people put their names forward:
Tim and Sam Harrison, Greg Parnell, Dominic House and Bob Bull.

Will anyone who can definitely commit to writing a race report for any or several of the Challenge rounds listed here:
http://www.morganchallenge.co.uk/Pages/ ... endar.html

please email me via the Contact page on the Challenge web site:
http://www.morganchallenge.co.uk/Pages/contact.html

Go on - you know you want to! :wink:

Alan House has kindly volunteered to write the report for Snetterton on 11th April. =D>

That still leaves a good number of rounds without reporters so let's hear from a few more of you. :roll:

Thank you Bob, or should I call you "Scoop" ?

I will put you down for BDC Silverstone and MSCC Brands.

I am sure that if there is a Morgan team at the Birkett they would be delighted if you could write a report.

Thanks Greg, we are almost there.
Leigh has volunteered to report on one race at Spa so we need someone to do the second race at Spa and a volunteer for Donington.
