You just don't understand do you.You are clearly blaming Brexit for your inability to get your head around a simple process.
When I organise regattas to France, I have a few extra forms to complete, I just get on with it. It's not going to change any time soon, so if this is/was something you really enjoyed - get your head around the process and get on with it. Life is too short to miss out on things you enjoy.
The process is so time consuming and complex I'm not interested in doing it. Each event means a full reorganization of parts equipment and tools. A full and accurate inventory is needed. Any parts used and replaced during an event have to be kept and proof of this also needs to be recorded.
Then take into account 2 or 3 vans may share the service requirements of 2 3 4 cars and parts moved from vehicle to vehicle at the drop of a hat.
At the end of any event trying to get each van back to it's original inventory, allowing for replaced parts can take as long as the initial organising.
Like mottie you have no clue what you are on about in these circumstances.
I've stopped doing it because of the time and agro involved.
It's a direct result of Brexit.
I still often go in a car as physical support and help, but not with tools and parts. I can still have fun and a "working holiday," but not as a working support crew.
Stop telling me it's simple when it isn't.
You are clueless to the details !
