where did you find that post D ?

On RSOC Website - here is my reply

Hally

You say you will not show against One Day Wonders - well after looking at RSCarshows website it appears you have attended 13 regional Day shows in the 2 years

But other than the White and Blue MKI Escort no other cars even turned up to be any kind of competion for the pair of you ?

Did it not bore you having the same car to compete against all the time ?
How can that be called a competition ?

You have won a Gold Cup - Well you need to get your car (as required) into intermediate class (I think thats whats its called for now !) and face some different competition.

It will make it a lot more enjoyable and more importantly worthwhile

Dont be scared of One Day Wonders - Get out there and beat em !

If you give up now you have wasted 2 years of your life, money and also the time of people who even took the car to a show on your behalf.

what changes caused this to happen to Wayne ?

what is the gold cup ? (remember im not a member, yet)

[Dave1800BDA]

dont give up wayne, go for the hat trick of gold cups,

need to be in a different class son, and dont be affraid of the one day wonders

wonder boy

[Martin]

Agree, keep going Wayne we need as many MK2's showing as possible so the RSOC members can see how good our cars are. And it would be a waste of all your time and effort (and your teams) if you stopped now

[hally]

well firstly i did move up class last year into intermeidiate! and secondly i will not show against one day wonders when i work all year traveling up and down the country supporting many regional shows as i can! why should one day wonders not have own class or have some form of qualifing to show at nat day against everyone who has travelled up and down the country showing?

[topaz]

winning isnt everything, its the taking part that matters

bring out the wondercars!

JUST SAY NO to 2 show rules!

another view and i dont think it would be fair on the so called one day wonders, is the group or classes that they may be in at nat day, the cars should be against there own marque, remember you wayne against that focus at rockingham...thats not fair imo, dont think you like the situation either

Regional Day Concours and National Day Concours are 2 seperate Competitions

Just as Regional Day Concours is different from Auto Glym's Concours etc etc

All that changed for the 2008 season was the Concours Massive "twisted" the rules to increase their odds of winning the coverted title of National Day Winner by effectively "banning" One Day Wonders

From the sound of it The RSOC Committee have realised they were "bullied" (bullied has been quoted by 2 or 3 RSOC Committee members) into the rule change and the signs are 2009 National Day will be a competition for ALL members to compete in ie,

Standard - Modified - Working Class/Novice

Then models will be competing against like for like models

Excellent work RSOC Committee stand your ground and put the Concours Massive back in line

JUST SAY NO

Isnt that a song title ?

Would make a great T-Shirt logo for next years season

Pity nobody makes em

I hope so, as Autoglym concours has been discontinued following declining numbers for the past few years.
