NG Marshals 2009

VENUE – ANGLESEY
This season we are very proud to announce the addition of Anglesey to our 2009 Calendar. Although a little “out of the way” for most of us, it is arguably one of the best riders circuits in the country, and set right on the North west coast of Wales, it is certainly one of the most picturesque! We have secured a prime date in August for our first visit to Britain’s own “Philip Island” We will also be running the Friday Practice day at this event, so I hope many of you will be able to join us for long week end.

VENUE – OULTON AND THRUXTON
Thruxton has moved from it’s traditional “final meeting of the year” position in our calendar to the hopefully sunnier date in June. We return to Oulton after last years very successful “first time” at this venue, and this season it becomes our final meeting. Look out for details of our proposed “end of Season” party at this event.

2009 ACU 250GP BRITISH CHAMPIONSHIP AND NG CUP.
After a fantastic first year running this event, which saw near full grids leading up to a nail biting final, The NG Club will play host to this series once again this season.

2009 PIRELLI STREETSTOCK CHAMPIONSHIP
All entrants in our 700 and 1300 streetstock classes will be on Pirelli control tyres again this season. In 2008 this single tyre choice series provided an even playing field, giving us some of the closest fought classes of the season. Is it a coincidence that BSB have moved to the single tyre route for 2009??

PRE-INJECTION AND STEEL FRAMED CLASSES
New for 2009, these classes will be incorporated into our program and add another “Credit Crunching” opportunity to race with NGRRC.

PEMBREY
This venue always provides great racing and continues to feature strongly in our 2009 calendar. On the social side, this year as usual we will continue to provide evening meals and a “free bar” period on the Saturday evenings in the circuit restaurant for all volunteers.

Other Dates On Availability Form

As in previous years I have included a number of other non-NG events to which NG Marshals are invited to assist.
Saturday 22nd AUGUST – CASTLE COMBE
Organised by New Era.

Your Support

As you can see from the “NG in 2009” notes. NG Roadracing continues to grow.
We travel to more circuits than ever before, and are proud to offer our members a club racing series that is second to none when it comes to the variety of top circuits, close racing and club friendly classes.
We need you to be a part of this, helping us to ensure we continue to offer all of our competitors the safest of conditions and the slickest of organisations in which to compete.

In Return

In 2009 NG Roadracing will to continue to provide all Marshals and Officials at all of our meetings with

* A Cooked Breakfast each day

* A Snack Pack each day

* £10 towards your expenses each day.

* A “debrief” drink in the bar on the Saturday evening

    (When possible)

*An action packed programme of racing!

Volunteering

I understand that not every one is available for every meeting, or in a position to travel to all venues, but no matter how many, or how few meets you are able to volunteer for, you will still be made most welcome by the NG family.

New Marshals Needed

As NG Roadracing grows, the need for more Marshals increases. Many of us started our Marshalling careers by being introduced by a friend already marshalling.
So I ask you to look around and think if there are any folk you could introduce to the sport.
They will be sure to thank you for it, once they too discover that marshalling is what week ends were invented for.

Your Support

NG Roadracing is continuing to grow, as we travel to more circuits than ever before. We are proud to offer our competitors a club racing series that is second to none when it comes to the variety of top circuits, close racing and club friendly classes.
We need you to be a part of this and help us ensure we also continue to offer our competitors the safest of conditions and the slickest organisation.

Finally

Once you have filled in and returned the Availability Form, your passes will then be sent to you a week or so prior to the date of each event you have volunteered for.

How Do I Become A Road Race Marshal?

IF YOU'VE EVER BEEN TO A ROAD RACE MEETING OR SEEN ONE ON TV YOU WILL HAVE SEEN THE MARSHALS, EITHER REMOVING FALLEN BIKES AND RIDERS OR GIVING FLAG SIGNALS TO THOSE WHO ARE RACING.
WHO ARE THEY? - All Marshals have one thing in common, their interest in motorcycle racing, and they all want to be more involved than just spectating. Apart from this shared interest they can and do come from all walks of life, all ages over 18, and of course both sexes.
HOW MUCH TIME DO THEY GIVE? - A Marshal is required to be on duty for the whole of practice and racing. They also attend a training day each year.
ADVANTAGES OF BEING A MARSHAL
· Working with like-minded people. Shared interest.
· Close involvement with the action.
· Free admission to meetings.
· Satisfaction of doing a job critical to making racing safer.
Marshals are vital. Race meetings cannot take place without them .
HOW DO I BECOME A MARSHAL, AND WHAT WILL BE EXPECTED OF ME? - Organisers of race meetings are always happy to welcome and train new Marshals, most people start Marshalling with organisations such as ours that are local to where they live, and if they wish, may go on to also Marshal at top British National and International events. It is completely up to the individual as to how many meetings a year they attend. The only commitment required is that they turn up to those meetings for which they have volunteered.
