Northern Saloons and Sportscars

[rralston]

So the long trip north becons on Friday

I'm planning to head up mid morning so we can get a few laps in on Friday evening - booked on the 6.40pm and 7.40pm sessions.

Looks like car is back to where it should be after snapping the subframe during the 2nd race at Cadwell, I thought the handling went off a bit!

It could well be down to the workshy mechnic though, too much time gaffing rather fixing if you ask me

Which route are you taking - A1M, Edinburgh, Dunfermline or A66, Carslie, Glasgow, Dunfermline?

Cheers
RR

This is what worries me as Rich does love the kerbs!

Do you want 100% throttle at Knockhill?

Do you take bribes Steve?

I think a plug lead missing could be the way forward!

[Westysprinter]

Im looking to go A68 all the way, steady away set off mid late morning.
Has anyone seen an entry list?

I saw the 2nd Knockhill race, fine entertainment and a great range of cars.
I tried to post some photos, but there seems to be a restriction on this thread.

[skeggy]

Malcolm,

Glad you enjoyed our racing - I was on the pit wall and couldn't see much!

The weather was fantastic and all the people we met (barring the odd one) were very welcoming.

Send me a PM and I'll try to post your photos - we love photos!

Knockhill is a great circuit and I'm sure we will be back.

steve i entered this race 6 weeks ago and im not on the list???

[Steve Gibson]

In that case you need to speek to BARC and find out what has happened, did they recieve your entry, have you had an aceptance for your entry.

[big andy]

i do the barc entrys on line steve ill ring them tomorrow and find out what the score is

[Steve Gibson]

Just for information currently we have the following
Rounds 9 & 10 13th August Oulton Park 21entries (grid 34)
Rounds 11 & 12 10th & 11th September Croft 17 entries (grid 36)
Rounds 13 & 14 24th & 25th September Croft 12 entries(grid 36)
so if you have not got yours in "Best get a wiggle on" unless you want to risk dissapointment.

I can't take all the credit for the Clio the two owners/drivers do most of the work, I just help out.
Great photos, thanks for posting them.

[Steve Gibson]

Make thet 23 for Oulton. full grid ?
I would say more than likely

[Westysprinter]

A1 3 Martin Lofthouse Triumph TR8 4200cc

good grief wonders will never cease

[Westysprinter]

is it just a rumour? Split grids for Croft in July?

[big andy]

can not see how they can split grids as its a barc meeting and as far as im aware there is no spare time in the program .they could put the reserves with the n/w s/saloons if there are short on numbers to make a full grid

They could do what they did at Anglesey - put the Honda V-Tecs (all three of them!) in with the CNC Heads sports/saloons.
