Environmental issues, electric cars, venue loss, ageing membership are just some of the issues. However as a hobby we have too many self inflicted wounds. The recent consultation on the motorsport use of forests generated 1680 email responses, 633 of which related to Rallying and 982 from motor cycle Enduro and Trials followers. That figure from all those involved in rallying is pathetic! A typical BTRDA rally with 100 entries will have 200 folk in cars, another 200 service and 200 marshals etc.
