    FWIW if we ever get enough of them running again I'll gladly pull classes out of mothballs. Had the same issues with VMD, people getting a championship with no one else running the class so had to nuke a few :(

    It would not bother me in the least if low turn out classes never got a trophy. I am there to race and have fun.

    If a person wants bragging rights they can check the standings on the web site. Then they could make their own award with an internet form and have it laminated.

    I know this is just another thing for WERA to keep track of though, like keeping track of what class is big enough. I know, only give placks in V7 and V8!

    Same goes for vintage class championships. Get rid most or all of them.

    I'll say it again. I just want to race and have fun.

    For f*cks sake. The word you’re looking for is PLAQUE. It’s your language. Know it. I’ve never received an old Scottish coin on the podium.

    A plack was an ancient Scottish coin of the value of four Scots pence or, by 1707, one-third of an English penny.

    Cost more than plaques - not a huge amount but more.
