Let’s get some proposed dates for the 2012 Cone Head Cup

At the Canberra round there was talk of getting dates in early from the local event organisers.

Some points made at the ASRA meeting were.

Discussion on a name change, so that sponsors, promoters, and councils may take it more seriously.
ASRA wanting to take a back seat so they can concentrate their efforts on major events.
How the series should be run.
Who will run individual rounds?
The number and size of events?
Scheduling of the races. Short compact series, or spread over the year.
Point scoring system for the series, (how many races should be counted in your total ranking.
Adding additional entertainment such as the 101 cone challenge after the racing proper.

The series was put together a bit last minute this year and numbers may have been down due to this.

The Local organisers did a great job saving the series this year.

The ball is now rolling!

I’m not trying to take over the running, Just really keen to have a great series next year.

I can remove this if you have a different plan for discussion but I thought it would stay visible here.

Melbourne (MOSS) November (Date TBA)

Canberra (CROSS) Sat September 29th Stromlo & Sun 30th Ainslie

Blue Mountains (BMB) July/ Aug tight / December SSG (Date TBA)

Central Coast (NACCOS) October (Date TBA)

Townsville (BTB)

Sydney Maybe?

QLD event ??

Adelaide ??

Any other thoughts on revamping the series?

I Will post this on charliedontskate also.

Easier to keep discussions in one spot but im happy to bring info accross if needed as its probably a half and half thing of what site the guys use.

ASRA Admin Comment by Bugs on December 13, 2011 at 15:58: The month of April is terrible for the ASRA folks as it'll be Keira and Newtons time. Doesn't mean you can't have a race then, but it does mean we won't be able to be there or do much to help.

ASRA Admin Comment by bernie on December 13, 2011 at 15:45: Thought I saw cones out on a vid from SA, so we must not excuse RADelaide from this important duty.

We should also insist on 101 cones at every closed road or track event,

eg: Stromlo, Collingrove, Bathurst, Noosa, Townsville!

We could call that one "Cones101", and make it a requirement to get the ASRA timing system out of its travel case!

MOSS will try for April...ish,

and

November..ish ie with MOSSjam.
