I may be looking at another Brands Hatch event next year too - piggy backing onto the UK Drifting Championshis as before.

Hi Mika, I presume you are referring to the apparent “late” entry for Joe? I had been in contact with both Richy and Maria from early on in the Euros planning stages, I was asked on the last day of sign up if there was still room for another entrant I said that there was. I said that I needed confir...

Rob Ashby

Mika, are you referring to a separate tight course for the Pro's?

The UKSSA can today announce that there will be a total prize pot of €2000 for the Pro’s at the European Championships.

Any results up anywhere - this was a MAIN status race wasn't it?
It would be nice to see who won what - I see riders posting pictures of their trophies on Facebook but don't know who came where in what?

Many thanks

Rob Ashby

.....or get in touch with Louis Selby as he was out there recently and hooked up with a load of guys to skate with.

Rob Ashby

Wishing all racers, organisers and the 2013 BOD a Peaceful and Prosperous New Skating Year.
Have a good one y'all.

Rob Ashby

Yes, Sam is quite right. My apologies for the confusion with the dates.

I can confirm once again that the event will run from Friday 2nd to Sunday 4th August.

Rob Ashby

Was everything OK with my payment for August JBH? Its just that my name does not appear on ze list?

Rob Ashby

I paid last night JBH.

I'll poke Sam too as he normally likes to sponsor a month.

Cheers

Rob Ashby

I'll take August please - Rob Ashby/UKSSA

Muchos Gracias

In the UK we have the following dates booked at Hog Hill track:

18th-19th May - Hybrid/GS

3rd-5th August (possible Major event?) - Tight/Hybrid/GS?

Other dates for Cyclopark and Brands Hatch will follow shortly as will further details and information on the race formats.

Rob Ashby

Oh and it goes without saying that results should be published promptly for ALL races not just Major and Main Events. We have a UKSSA Twitter feed where UK results are put up straight after the days racing.

Rob Ashby

Just a few comments from me as both organiser and racer.... Racer Entries – At this year’s Worlds the field of racers was almost unprecedented. Should we perhaps consider limiting entries to future Worlds by ISSA ranking? Maybe limiting the entries to the top 3 - 5 riders from each country, OK we wo...

Rob Ashby

Robert,

I tend to write race reports for the UKSSA website on my return from races. I may be able to assist with a few lines for daily Worlds updates for the front page? We can maybe discuss this tomorrow. My fight leaves Heathrow at 08.10am so I will arrive in Stuttgart mid-morning.

Rob Ashby

We may be in a position to organise and host a big event in the UK in 2013. As soon as we have made any decisions we will inform you.

Rob Ashby

Hi Robert,

The ramps are looking good.

Thank you for posting up the information, it makes things so much easier to have the information in advance. I will arrive late morning on Thursday 26th and am staying at the Inter Hostel.
Really looking forward to it.

Rob Ashby

Thanks for all you are doing Robert. Happy to help with anything during the racing. Even for the smallest of races here in England we struggle with getting payments in before the race - too many people are keen to sign-up then they sit back and watch what the weather will be like, they then turn up ...

Rob Ashby

Robert, please ignore my previous e-mail. I phoned the Inter Hostel and booked my room.

Look forward to seeing you next month.

Rob

Rob Ashby

Hi Robert,

All paid and registered.

Could you let me know if there is accommodation left in the hostels. If possible I would like a single room at the Inter Hostel.

Thank you.

Rob

This has been a week of bad news for me personally and now I am afraid I have some bad news to pass on to all of you. Due to a mix up with the track booking Motor Sports Vision (MSV), who run Brands Hatch, have already let out the GP loop on 8th July unbeknown to the event organiser that was letting...

Rob Ashby

It would be appreciated if something could be done with the orientation of the booklet so it is less of a nightmare to print out? Thanks

Rob Ashby

Concerned by Flavio's news that Jeroen has broken his pulse now - I thought it was just his wrist?
Has he had a pump fitted to keep his circulation going?

Enjoy Paris everyone - sorry I can't join you this time around.

I was watching your Turners Tom - alas al I could afford to do. I spoke to Tom Sims via Facebook who confirmed the details behind the Sims Racing Turners he signed if you recall. Funilly enough another one has just surfaced on e-bay this week!

Rob Ashby

Wishing you a very Happy Birthday Jani. I hope you have a very special day.

I'll be joining you at the bar in the "Slalom @ 50 Club" soon. :o)

Best wishes

Rob

Rob Ashby

I will be 50 in October, can I win something in Paris too? :o)

Rob Ashby

....and stickers Donald - the right stickers help make a board go faster too as well as a nice Pavel Racing T-shirt of course! :o)

Rob Ashby

Force of habit...I'm looking for the "like" button Eddy!

Rob Ashby

I'm looking for the "like" button JBH! :o)

Rob Ashby

Flavio, if you move your race you then risk holding it the same weekend as one of our Hog Hill events - 19th/20th May.

Sometimes dates clash and there is nothing that can be done about it. This year in the UK for example three events that we normally hold races at are on the same weekend!

Rob Ashby

From our perspective having spoken to a number of UK riders recently more of our racers would want to come Amsterdam than travel that bit further to Milan.
Those on a limited travelling budget can get the ferry to Holland from Harwick to the Hoek.

Rob Ashby

....and Martin still helps out at races!
Rumour has it that we may even see him back on a board this year?

Rob Ashby

You should have my payment now sir, I made it in USD rather than Euro's - didn't want it to bounce! (and it was cheaper Mr Scrooge, Ed's voice)

I'll give Sam a prod too, I'm not sure what month he wants - is there a "Librarian Month"? :o)

Adios
