If that would happen, it would make a lot of old fart‘s eyes wet...

Agreed. I just had the impression as if the process had come to a standstill.

Joerg, you guys know from experience that the BBP crew is perfectly approachable. Come and have a look around, have a natter with everyone, ask your questions, come for a beer later - you've been there. And it doesn't stop there.

Guess that didn't work too well. Which isn't a big surprise as she is way too much involved in the story, so far from beeing neutral.

As long as these circumstances are unclear, I have doubts you will rece...

This is not what I had in mind converning 'mediation'. I had though about a respected person who would so this on a voluntary basis, just in the interest of the importance of K7 to the motor sport history. Someone who can figure out, by talking to both sides, what each side has in mind and what's bl...

Sure, by reading here I can only listen to one side of the story and by meeting you guys on Bute I might also be a little biased towards the BBP as well, but really trying to be neutral I have very little understanding for what's going on the other side. And whenever people post here from that side,...

'We might allow you but it's all subject to what our committee decides'. When I hear people saying such things then my alarm bell rings. "Oh, I personally would like this, but a higher force doesn't let me do it - I'm so sorry..." They are trying to hide behind a "higher force" and do not take resp...
