The awesome horsepower BriSCA Formula One Stock Cars compete for vital World Championship points and the 2007 National Series where every round counts in the race for either Gold or Silver! This is looking set to produce to biggest entry of the 600bhp monsters for at least a decade! Reigning World Champion Andrew Smith is expected to make the trip from Lancashire as is his arch rival, multi champion winner Frankie Wainman Junior from Yorkshire, just two of a star studded entry.

Of bigger interest locally is the debut of BriSCA Formula Two Stock Cars at Wimbledon and their first appearance within the M25 for some 30 years!
100 drivers have chased the 64 available entry slots - with big grids in all races.

Several Scottish names including World & Points Champion #7 Gordon Moodie and 647 Chris Burgoyne head a line up that is the absolute cream of BriSCA Stock Car Racing. A substantive Cornish entry is joined by several Dutch & Belgian entrants together with interest from Ireland. This is a huge event for race fans.

If all that wasn’t enough then the new Spedeworth Saloon Stock Cars finish off a full contact programme of awesome action with again big numbers of cars on track promised!

Should be a fantastic nights racing!!!!!

What will be interesting is to see how some drivers react to what happened at Northampton on Saturday. Junior Wianmann, Andy Smith and Murray Harrison all missed their heat and had to qualify in the consolation. The reason was that the organisers were running to a tight schedule and have to finish by 10pm (curfew). 322 James Neachell had a good night bagging a heat and final double, whilst 92 Simon Brooke was very impressive with his wingless car. 212 Wainmann senior went very well in the final bagging fifth and he missed the GN, saving his car for Wimbledon.

Disappointing that there were a lot of non starters, but the racing was still good.

I was a bit disappointed by the F1 turnout, although the carnage in the 2ltr stockers more than made up for it. Shame to see Wainman Snr go out in the last race though.

Just out of interest, what is the procedure with bookings nowadays. It used to be you got fined if you did not turn up without giving a reasonable excuse. A lot of names that survived Saturday night just didn't show, although I did see the Neachalls in the pits explaining their lorry was without air and could not unload their cars.

The Neachalls lorry had a compressor failure - and that was the end of the day for them. Lot of mileage for no reason

I understand that the f1s are to shown on c5 some time in the future.
Anyone go anymore details?
