Nick JM should be qualifying in the top 10 on the grid
HRDC and American Speed Fest Brands Hatch 6 June

Anyone apart from me doing this? Looks a real hoot.

Mix of histerics with Julius in HRDC and a right dust up of races, events, displays and motors from NASCAR to Dukes of Hazzard over the whole weekend

I didn't even know the HRDC was there, best kept secret ever. I'm in the SRGTC section of Bernie's V8s so I should win my class as I think I'm the only one there and definitely the only non V8 racing.

We're heading up Friday afternoon to get away from the music ( DJ's and a bloody racket not proper bands) festival and weather permitting will stay for the weekend to soak it all up.

apparently tickets etc are on the way, no idea what I'm racing with but I'll be in the old tin corner

I was wrong there, there are seven of us in the SRGTC class so that makes me last.

Fantastic response chaps. All racing or there for the larks?

Friend of mine who used to race Midgets is having a go in the Allcomers and I'm in Hrdc. Not raced at Brands before. Any hints most welcome!

I'll pop down on Saturday and take some piccies, what car are you in? As Mike says, it's all flat out just make sure you have a good skid plate for the bottom of Paddock.

I'm racing, hopefully.

Brands is a doddle.

Not sure if you'll be able to see this, but Paddock isn't quite flat, in any respect.

I'm going to be there on the Sunday with the '69 Camaro racer, just spectating and attending the Classic Camaro Club stand.

Looking forward to it and hopefully see some of you TenTenth chaps.

Thanks Tim. A green MGB with black roof. An old mate of mine who used to race midgets is having his first outing in 15 years in it in the Allcomers and I'm in HRDC Allstars. I'll be the one at the back going slowly... Having said that I had a great race at Snetterton with two chaps whose names now escape me; one was in a white early 911 and the other in an Ashley Midge

It's a 15 walk or 2 mins by car. Guess 6 mins cycle. Turn right out of the main gate abd head for the nearest village.

Dear Moose,
I knew the irony would not escape you : however, the car has a niggling gear selection problem that emerged during HSCC Silverstone GP round in mid-May, not a serious problem on the road, but a pain on the track. It can be fixed but not in time. Also, I am going to be racing the Chevy in Historic Road Sports on the Brands GP circuit with the HSCC on July 12th, so will get my Brands fix then.

The Classic Camaro Club crew, whom I have yet to meet, sound like a good bunch, so that's why I am spectating....
Nick

Oh Nick, such a pitiful excuse

I bet you'll wish you were racing when you're there. Maybe keep your race kit and licence with you just in case you get the urge.

Poor Al Weyman has had a rather painful and very unfortunate unloading accident at Brands Hatch today.

I,m sure that we all wish him a good and safe race or two tomorrow, and that he makes a speedy recovery from those nasty bruises and scrapes.

Good on yer Al.
