| EFRA European Championships - Sittard |
 An unusual but pleasant occurrence in 12th Scale this year. Oversubscription! Thanks to the co-operation of the organisers at Sittard Racing Arena we have been able to squeeze in 15 heats, the absolute maximum, to accommodate all the required places. Discipline on the track will be overseen by the EFRA referee, Javier Garcia, and the National referee, Frans Heinsbroek. Ally Coursier will be administering the timekeeping and lap counting while we listen to the expert commentary of Bjarne Hollund. There will be a 'tight' turnaround between heats which will keep the drivers on their toes despite the long gaps for them between their individual heats. Entrants need to be aware that it's going to be longer days with later finishes than they've been used to. A lot of time can be saved if everyone checks their transponder and frequency information. You may receive, if your federation has provided us with it, an email sking for transponder and frequency details, please respond to: ally@gtmrcclub.be |
| with these. Those running in both classes must provide both of the transponder numbers. In the future EFRA is going to provide you with direct access to your details so you can maintain them yourself to forward these but we're unable to do it today. This will make entering an EC or GP very easy as we'll be able to provide the organiser with all your race profile data for each class you race. The paper based, fax and spreadsheet systems are on their way out. However, some federations may be restricted in sharing your contact information so EFRA will need you to grant explicit permission to store and use it. Direct access to your profile will allow us all to move on. So, in the meantime please help the organisers by responding to this. We're looking forward to an exciting, busy, classic and rewarding meeting. Feeling sorry for those who won't be there. Chris Hardisty, Electric Section Chairman |
