BRSCC Ford Saloon Car Championship 2008
The 2008 calender is at the following link:
http://www.fordracinguk.com/Calendar2008.htm Including the return to Donington Park and Mallory Park. Any ideas of the drivers entry list for 2008 yet? Cheers Last edited by thebullet; 29 Dec 2007 at 11:10. |

I would expect it to be much the same as last year. Not many other places to race those cars in a national capacity with TV coverage.

If Rod wanted to race in Fords then I'm sure he can. There is a special class for cars that don't me the requirments of the existing classes.

Brilliant can i quote you,so according to you we can do ford mod saloons with out being a member of brscc or paying a reg.fee also we can use any old tyres we like,if you can sort this i will split the saving with you,didnt work like this last season,i am sure the 40 odd entrants from last season will also like to use your system,please contact when you have arranged it.
regards vaughan |

The 40 odd entrants are doing the championship. You was talking about one round at Lydden! To be frank Vaughan i don't give a toss weather you beleive me or not. Thats what happened. And i dare say, if you spoke to Kevin Shortis, he would make the exception again. I recomend you turn you attitude down before you try it though.

the profile of ford mod saloons has progressed in the last ten years,big grids, tv,most cars are modified,the group 1 cars that raced seem to have moved on. The scrutineer now checks the make of tyres to see that they have dunlop stamped on them. i dont think what might have normal some years ago happens now. I must admit some years ago,in my case many years ago! i did a whole seasons racing with the brscc when i was only an ordinary member,not a racing member. Also members of other clubs ie barc etc could race at other clubs meetings providing their club was rac registered, this facility might have been ok some years ago. It does not happen now membership cards are checked at at signing on,all brscc championships have membership as a entry qualification.
