Reform lead the polls

[carmanmemoranda]

The real test will be the next election for those councillors

 

[wobs]

Reform are fielding over 80 candidates in Cornwall for the March local elections. I suspect they'll do well, I'm going to tick their box.

So they can appear on GBeebies, instead of voting in parliament on an immigration related bill? As happened this week.

You haven't said what kind of racing you want to take part in. Just that its too complicated for you to do the paperwork.
Here's another https://www.autoaddicts.co.uk/brexit-rules-drive-race-europe/

All sorts of people out there to help those with the will to want to do it. Stop making excuses and sulking.

Stop telling me it's easy when it's not.

I've highlighted the bit I've been telling you about. Post 129

YOU. HAVENT. GOT. A. CLUE

Bad advice is worse than no advice. Unless you KNOW the facts stop giving BAD advice !

 

[motorbiking]

The facts are others are managing to do it without sulking. I'm sure it was inconvenient at first, but you just adapt your SOPs and follow them.

From your link....

The information required from customers, will be: Make, model, registration number, chassiyou s no, colour, plus a list of any spares and their weight. If any of the paperwork is incorrect for a vehicle we are carrying it will stop the whole shipment, so it must be accurate and it won’t be possible to do last minute car changes, as the ATA Carnets will be booked and paid for in advance.”

I can't put it any simpler.

YOU. HAVENT GOT A CLUE

Stop telling me how easy it is, when it isn't. You are talking to somebody with experience, not just theory like yourself !

It can be done.

I don't want to because of the effort, time and logistics involved.

You are totally ignoring the fact about parts being swapped between cars and vans during an event and the need to resort EVERYTHING before returning

It's a direct result of brexit ! No other reason !

 

[motorbiking]

It can be done.

Finally.

 

[carmanmemoranda]

Finally.

I've told you from months ago.

I don't do it anymore BECAUSE. OF. THE. TIME EFFORT AND LOGISTICS INVOLVED.

I've never said it can't be done.

Do you always struggle with comprehension ?

Is what you said.

You simply don't understand how complex and time consuming, so expensive, it becomes.

A lot of the time I do it for fun with just my expenses covered. Can you understand that?

But I'm not devoting a day to sort out equipment then another day to sort out the paperwork.

The rallies still exist, but very few privateer support services go Europe with them now

Just try thinking for a few minutes !

So you've given up something you enjoyed doing because you have to spend a day sorting the kit out.

I'm curious, did you just throw random tools and spares in the van, pre-brexit and hope you had what you needed? Or did you perhaps spend a day going through the kit?

A day !

If only that's all it was.

Give up! YOU. HAVENT. GOT. A. CLUE

Each car has its own parts. Every trip is individual.

 

[motorbiking]

And you had a list of these parts ?

 

[Mottie]

So let me get this right. A 'team' go to the EU to race cars. You help out for free because you want to. You have the responsibility to get yourself, your vehicle, your tools and their spares out there. Is that right? Why not let the team take the cars, the spares and the tools and sort out the paperwork? You just jump in a car, drive there and carry out your work for free. That seems logical to me or is that too simplistic and you won’t be able to moan about Brexit and how it’s affected you? Have you had no help at all with the paperwork from those that you are helping for free? A mate of mine does that when he helps out some Lotus drivers (he works in a Lotus dealership and often builds the engines and cars for the customers that enter these races). He's been to Le Mans and Dubai to name but a few. He helps load the cars, spares and tools at this end, unpacks and reloads at the other end and unloads when they get back in the U.K. The drivers cover his travel, his accommodation and food etc as well as giving him something for his trouble. Once, he was given a pretty decent watch.

 

[motorbiking]

It's too complicated @Mottie , YOU. HAVENT. GOT. A. CLUE

Correct.

If you can't understand the difference between a van kitted out as a workshop full of tools and spares and a car with a suitcase

 

[carmanmemoranda]

Why don't you 2 stop trying to tell me how easy it is when the facts prove you wrong.

I'm experienced at this stuff, not a beginner.

Brexit has made it VERY. DIFFICULT,
