Summary of the report of the Working Group established to review the Club's motor sport strategy and options
The Working Group was created to carry out a strategic review of the Club's motor sport activities, current trends and the available options, and then report its findings and recommendations to the Club Chairman. Ron Gammons was appointed by Peter Best (Club Chairman) to lead the Working Group and select members who he felt had the experience and ability to work as a team in carrying out the remit and produce a good report. A subsequent resolution of the Board on 12th June 2006 confirmed that appointment and remit subject to one member of the Club Office staff being invited by Ron Gammons to join the Working Group. The Club's competitions secretary, Sharon Smith, was subsequently invited to join the Working Group along with Piers Hubbard, Victor Smith and Geoff St John Mitchell.

The Working Group has put forward a number of proposals which have been approved by the Board in principle, including:

Restricting the number of Club sponsored race meetings to 4 or 5 which should be spread out through the season.

Improved publicity of the Club's race meetings.

Circuit hospitality for members, competitors, marshals, administration staff and volunteer helpers at the Club's race meetings.

CRB support - encouraging the Centres and Registers to arrange their activities at Club race meetings.

Any Club Member who has any observations to make regarding the Club's motor sport programme should contact Ron Gammons who will welcome your views and contribution. His contacts are below. Copies of the 23 page full report will automatically be sent to the Club's Racing Championships and other involved parties and on request by any Centre or Register.
