why not actually come and spectate or god forbid even lend a hand at a full rally day or dex instead of just popping in

[Skyline_babe]

why did you not ask in the first place...i have no problem with assisting in dex or rally('god forbid') ..and i do actually spectate on some occasions..so what if i just pop in..does that contribute any more to you being and idiot?..so please sir...do take your petite talk elsewhere.

[tr1ad]

my point is why criticize something ie bad organization on which you have absolutely no idea about
these things happen, and think clearly and read the whole thread before you run off to say bad organization
many factors have influenced the date(s) changing

[eliteauto]

tr1ad, you actually trying?

[MadCrix]

lol

[professor]

^^bad organization ??? how d hell u comin in on dat talk


when it have zen prive and space on d same nite dais bad organization?

'dais bad organization' Eh, eh. Not enough Sundays' and Venues.

Not that it matters at this point but with all the talk flying around the forum i figured i would put an official comment from the TTRC concerning Sept 27.

Originally Sept 26-27 was the weekend for the Tobago Rally. THA confirmed their support but had some logistical delays with land use, and course layout. Long story short there were a few good reasons to push the event to Oct 24. We do apologize to all who may have already booked but the situation was really out of our hands. So we put the event back to Cedar Hill and confirm that Oct 24 is the Tobago Rally.

As for the date clash with Dex.
BEFORE the date was announced the CARS Prez actually called me and informed me of their dilemma with the clash with Eid and the fact that the ARC was already booked on the 13. No one is to blame - and if you want the real reason for the clash its due to a religious holiday that CARS is respecting (even if it's for the benefit of a few competitors only)

Its nice to know that at least Executive members of organizations with clashing dates still have the respect to make an effort to communicate the dilemma before making the date public. Unfortunately this cannot be said for other associations.

So call it what you will - but bad organization IT IS NOT.

CARS we wish you all the best for the event. It is unfortunate but hopefully the 2 events can run simultaneously without any major loss of support. We look forward to seeing some of the dex posse in Tobago on Oct 24

This is the perfect opportunity to combine both disciplines.

I would suggest that TTRC move the circus to Arima and make a full day of it .


it would also increase the marketing of TTRC's Tobago event.

Let's face it Robbie, CARS members are a great percentage of spectators/helpers/volunteers in the TTRC events, with the unfortunate clash of the events I predict the stages will sparse.

Think about it, this is a really opportunity.

***steups***
20th was lookin good, with the Monday to recover, fix car etc

[AutoSport]

So with the explanations given, with the special note that Management from both bodies involved were concerned enough to have discussed all possibilities, even to the extent of seeing how both parties can share resources on the date to ensure minimal discomfort, should those who have jumped to attack not come back and be apologetic or even say, glad to know that there was proper discussion between affected parties?


And when this situation did start to unfold, I did speak to the President of CARS, and he did inform me of the dialog between the TTRC and himself and confirmed that both parties were comfortable with the decisions made.

[X2]

Autosport... agreed !

Shame on the attackers !



.....


So about this Sunday 20th.... how about a small bycc to keep the tires warm ?

*dons flak jacket*

all this nonsense about poor planning on CARS part to have dex on Sept 20.........and the susbequent draba over a clash with TTRC....................
for those who keep ambling on about respect for Sept 20...........you guys expect the rest of the world to drop all plans while you all debate what day is significant for you all........rather selfish IMHO that even as you speculate on the specific date, you expect CARS to put off an event.........

of all the religious holidays on the calendar, two are always 'to be announced'.....you guys expect everyone else to put things on hold while you settle on your date???????

Tis a sad day that CARS has to bend to please those who have a problem with Sept 20..............selfish and intolerant IMHO

[MG Man]

Based on the above I would like to put it to our members to vote. We are stuck between a rock and a hard place. I do not really want to have Dex on Eid but I also do not want to clash with rally which is on the 27th.

Out of respect we are willing to change the date, however we leave it up to you the members to decide.

how was this done?
were all members / championship contenders contacted and asked to vote / comment? What are the results of the vote?
I for one do not recall being asked to vote........

[Sheriff!]

disappointing. Sunday 20th is Eid. after spending $40G on the locost, i cant make it....

exaclty


CARS needs to plan better

wats ur problem wit cars? they did not know eid will fall on that day! geese!

[MG Man]

and how does holding an event on that day become disrespectful?

[Advil]

its only disrespectful if those who are of that religion decide to duck mosque and come dex

friday night when u drinking stag, 7 day adventists at home, are we disrespecting them too?

20th ftw

[MG Man]

well it's a moot point anyway
the members have voted, apparently.........
