The only time anyone goes to WA is when they have the Nats that year. Sry but it's true so early March is probably a good date for WA.
I spoke to the Pres of the QRCCRA today and he couldnt see a problem with what we are proposing so I'll get onto the releative committee members in SA and see what they think about it. Then this weekend will speak to the other drivers about it and in a few weeks will put it to our committee for approval.
Then it's just a matter of writing up the proposal and sending it to the affilated host clubs and AARCMCC for their input and putting it to a vote if that even needs to be done. I don't think there is a requirement for event dates to be voted on they just need AARCMCC sanctioning approval. It would be nice to have all the state club committees on board and in favour of the proposed dates. Once that is done it can be adopted for the 05 season and beyond and hopefully will increase the amount of people who can travel to them by spreading them out a bit more evenly over the year.

Funny how the elec guys have to jump in and put their 2cents into a topic that has nothing to do with them. I guess typing NITRO in the title isnt enough of a hint.

Actually no consaltation or talk between clubs is needed to change dates. If you read the letter of the law, rule 2.2 states you have to give AARCMCC 6 months notice for event sanctioning and rule 2.8.6 states that a club or state can loose their regular event timing to another club/state after one years grace.
Contact... my comment was not aimed at you.

Billy's schedule looks pretty good to me.
Not that we've attended an interstate AARCMCC event, but would like to do so. It'd be nice if some of these dates were in school holidays too, so I could bring my driver.

Driver what driver. You dont need him.
I think we should have a day where the mechanics have a run of the cars and the drivers become the mechanics. Also for this day there should be no holds bar against open slander.
Who's in? There should be a sanctioned event of this, I would think it would be a great hit.
Cheers Bill

It wasnt aimed at anyone in particular, more of a broad brush stroke... if you didnt like it stiff shit.
When was the summernats sanctioned by AARCMCC?
A main.. wait.. haing on ... nope, couldnt care less. I won a meat tray at the RSL last year too.. does that count?

Moving SA to August from March brings with it drier weather in SA in August than it does in March as far as my research shows.
Having the QLD titles in June is to have them in our dry season. Winter in QLD is all about day after day of dry weather as the BOM rain charts will show. We get our wet season in the spring (August storms) and deep summer Jan Feb cyclone season.
No other IC titles dates are to be changed we only want to spread out the first 3 titles of the year.
Again this is IC on-road only we are discussing, please have a look at the proposed calendar Billy G has posted.

Toby,
My reference to rant was just in responce to Simons comments, not the nature of the topic. I mainly piped up because we started this discussion last sunday and I didnt get to finish it with you.
Bills proposal will require a number of clubs change their state titles dates. Eg. NSW for example, I think (may be wrong here) they are pretty set on Easter, and I can see why. If i remember correctly it was proposed some time ago that the Nats be held at Easter, it did not pass and I think NSW were against it.
Vic likes Australia Day, not sure if we would want to hang on to necessarily, and there is also the creek in NSW on Australia Day.
If we can get all clubs to agree great, but perhaps the SA-QLD swap would be easier as it will only involve 2 clubs one which appears willing already.

Toby,
My understanding of that rule is that a club could possibly lose its date only if it has not run it for 12 months eg, ACT and TAS.
I dont think you could say, change QLD's date as it has been run each year.
