Welcome to NG Roadracing 2012

I write to give you some details of our 2012 season and to invite you to once again be “part of the action”.
Firstly, on my own, all the team at NG, please let me thank you for your assistance in 2011.  Over the last few years NG has grown from our original roots on Airfield circuits to become second to none with our range of circuits, venues and entries. This is complimented by our vastly experienced marshalling/Technical team, whether you follow us to most/all venues or contribute invaluable local knowledge when we visit your favorite circuit, we are proud to have you as part of our “show” - Without your assistance there would be no racing!!!

Nine different Circuits – Is this a record for any British Club??

NG - Bits and Pieces

BRANDS HATCH Our 2012 season kicks off with a visit to the famous Kent circuit.  Our NG championship contenders will be keen to gain a decent haul of points and If the last few years are anything to go by, they will have to do so amongst grids occupied by many British Championship “names” getting some early track experience prior to the first round of BSB.

CADWELL PARK this spectacular circuit has become a firm favorite with the NG faithful, as well as the unique features on circuit, we also enjoy the support we receive from the famous “Cadwell Clique”

PEMBREY This venue always provides great racing, and continues to feature strongly in our 2012 calendar. As usual on Saturday evenings we provide you with an evening meal and a “free drink”.

MALLORY PARK 2011 saw our first meeting at this venue for nearly 30 years, and we did it in style, with the biggest entry Mallory Park saw all year!! So 2012 should be another great day in prospect.

DONINGTON PARK NG makes a return to this massively popular venue in 2012 after a couple of years absence.

CASTLE COMBE Yes NG are back!! After too many years away, NG return to the Combe. In 2012 NG are only organisation in the country to put on two wheel race action at this unique venue.
ANGLESEY, Is arguably one of the best rider circuits in the country, and set right on the North West coast of Wales, it is certainly one of the most picturesque! Once again we have a prime date in August for our week end at Britain’s own “Philip Island”.  A great excuse for a long weekend off work!

OULTON One of the hardest circuits to learn, Oulton is vastly popular among racers.

THRUXTON NG is proud to currently be the only club in the country offering bike racing to it’s members at this incredibly fast and exiting circuit.

2012 ACU 250GP BRITISH CHAMPIONSHIP AND NG CUP Once again we can look forward to the unique spectacle of full grid - quarter litre 2-strokes in these exclusively NG run British Championship rounds

GUEST CLASSES – In addition to all our usual championship classes, look out for the growing GP45 class and a few guest class appearances at many of our 2012 venues. (details to follow)

YOUR SUPPORT.

In 2012 we visit more venues than any other club, and are proud to offer our members the best club racing championship series 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 conditions and the slickest of organisations in which to compete.

IN RETURN

In 2012 - 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
• A small monetary sum towards your expenses each day.
• A “debrief” drink in the bar on the Saturday evening.

             (When possible)

• An action packed 20 championship races a day!

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 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.

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.

2012 Marshal Training

There are currently no Training Days planned for 2012.
Please contact me, either if you have never attended a training day, or have not attended one for more than three years, I will then try to put a session together to suit you.

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.
Where ever you live, if you are interested in finding out more contact me (Nino) via email or telephone on 07803 933130
