Having just sold my T44, I am once again thinking of getting something for low budget post war racing....
This is to complement my VSCC actvities. Suggestions welcome. |

Formula Junior!!!
Seriously there are some great cars out there. I would go for a low cost late 50s or early 60s sports (sports racing car). I know a lot of these like Juniors are now much more expensive than a few years ago but there are som bargins to be had. I like Turners for a start and I saw an interesting Elva in the States. To be honest Mike you get better value over there. |

nearly everyone I talk to will actively go and watch, support, and enjoy historic events, but not modern events . . .as new racers we have freinds who come and support and have thoroughly enjoyed their days out in every respect, when half of them wont even watch a GP on TV.
the thought that the clubs wouldnt work together and support each other is frankly rediculous. |

Well said John...we are all in this together. And thanks for doing the Clerk of the Course job. And no I am not creeping...just praying that it does not rain as per last year. |

I think we all agree with that! the rain was incredible!
Eclectic re the Elva I think it has been sold if its teh same one that I think it is but it only had a Ford crossflow engine so would not be competitive |
