Someone asked recently how many tanks were entered this season.
With all the interest in this class maybe next time we see a drivers entry list for a Big Championship would it be possible to have Driver's name, race number, chassis, motor. It would be interesting year after year to see who has success with what combination's. Is Nissan Dominant? Or has Toyota Maintained it's Success? How many Old School Motors are still out there? I remember John Webster when writing about a driver would always add in the motor and at times the Sponsor. I'm not knocking the current effort. i'm sure it would be well received and with the Entry form having the info I don't think it would take too much to add a few basic stats.

Blenheim are doing an excellent job on their website for the Stockcars along the lines of what you're talking about. I do agree with your sentiments.
These days I think we're seeing too many words when really we want data about the drivers and cars.

I just checked the entry forms and this information is requested by the entrant, nothing in there to say "you must" provide the info though.
If it has been provided I will see if it can be added to the entry list.

Can't agree more, in the old days at Palmy in the programe it always had the car number, drivers name, model, and type of engine the car was running, like "Boss Mustang", is was neat.

Having put together the Teams Champs programme the last three years, I can tell you that getting that information from drivers and teams can be really hard work. Sometimes it's difficult even getting names!!!

Sometimes it's difficult even getting names!!! if it's part of the entry form it shouldn't be that much of a task. I think the teams champs is a bit different because of the difficulties with getting teams organised to start with.

It's actually getting that other information that can be the toughest of the lot, even though it was meant to be included on the information we received as well.

like the wy blenheim have broken down each group to tracks represented in that group and then also each group as to how many form nth and sth island in that group.
shows a very even split.
also excellent to see driver profiles scanned in for all to see. good for fellow drivers to see others info also really. same for all so no favours done etc.
