i missed this post David until now seeing it by chance

looks like racing should go ahead ok, but then again we know not to take things for granted where the rpra and government are concerned .....

Looks a better prospect for racing than this time last year.

The only drawback for some are the regulations.

Think many of the small clubs will have problems.

Far better than nothing.

Regards.
