Our rules were/are based from the real SSC rules, see below from page 12 of the rules as viewed on the Saloonstockcars.com site... So as said above and Im not disagreeing that the real Irish Champion doesnt run a roof grade, it just simply doesnt state within the rules that they must start at the back with the other 'Champions' hense why our rules currently state the same.

Whats an 'absolute joke' and what rules are 'just made up'? A side note, to those who seem to have alot of opinions with regards to Saloons whether it be via this forum, Discord or in server, its very easy to have those opinions but when we (UKDirt Admin) posted threads asking for admin applications for whatever mod you thought suited you there wasnt a huge rush for people wanting 'to change' Saloons for the 'better'. Dane.. The minis were always going to be a short term thing in reality, Grasser knew this when he made them as it was discussed. Saloons on the other hand are a long standing formula here at UKDirt and yes perhaps the mod needs a refresh/totall new one but as you know things are built quickly and you wont always make everyone happy. What puzzles me is, last season I would say we had a pretty decent turnout for 80% of the meetings and they werent being 'raced properly' (Not my view by the way) but now there are less racing the the races are very roddy there are less and less racing. So whats right then? 18-22 car races with lots of action or 7-10 cars racing hot rods?

James does the grading and taken from our rules....

Thanks to Dan and Grasser for the meeting. Good meeting at an updated Mildenhall, certainly suited the F1s more with the kerbs and slight track change. Some good races all night, Well Done to Dode on the Final win and Dan for top scoring.

The Mildenhall download has now been updated with a fix for the lap(s) issue. This is a mandatory download for this coming Mondays F2 meeting.

CB Swearing/abuse in general - 1 week all mods ban. He will be able to race again on Tuesday 17th April 2018.

We are aware of this issue and a proper fix will be released for download via the website hopefully tomorrow.

To upload a file via the upload tool it must be in a zip file.

Thanks to Dan and Stumpy for the meeting. Well Done to all the race winners and Mr Ward on top scoring.
