Took part in my first race where, and wait for it...

.....EVERYONE was disqualified...

Yep - Everyone. Why?

Riding Kerbs...

Not only that the CoC (I think he was) stood on a kerb IN THE RACE with everyone doing 50-60 mph at him, round a semi-blind bend (Pylon @ Rye). Which in itself was dangerous and I would think pretty stupid; obviously attempting silently to push everyone 100% onto the tarmac. You cannot change the circuit mid-race as you would obviously disadvantage yourself. He could have put a cone down I suppose, rather than a body.

No numbered warnings were given, just a "Kerbs" sign held out with no numbers on it. Drivers briefing did have a "mention" about kerbs...as usual...but no specific zero tolerance announcement that I heard.

The rules do state that you "may" be excluded but wow how to annoy people.

Firstly, this was a memorial weekend for Josh O'malley so several people across classes has dusted down, lent, borrowed stuff so people could enjoy a fun days racing.

So not only was this not in the "Spirit of the Event", but also now has disadvantaged any regulars who now have to carry that round across the season, against those that did not bother to race.

Has anyone else been afflicted with this new aggressive stance....??
