1970's & 80's Super Saloons & Special Saloons (merged)

[R59]

Here's an invitation for owners of cars fitting this bill:

After discussions with Rockingham, and the BRSCC, I am trying to find/attract as many of this sort of car as possible (that still exist!) to come out and play!!

At the moment, it's looking like the best date will be the first weekend in August, as part of a Thunder Sunday meeting with the SCSA.

The cars we want are:

Cars that ran in the 1970's Super Saloons (Superloons),

Special Saloons from the 70's, like Gerry "Swish" Taylor's Anglia,

Thundersaloons from the "original" two-driver era (not the later Class "C" Supertourers).

Anything that fits in with that "genre" of car, ie: Take a Mk1/Mk2 Capri and fit a GA, or a V8. Take a Sierra and fit a nice big V8 (in the front!). Big Rover's, etc...

This will be a one-off race (unless you want more!!!), there may be a pot or two - which could be raced for again.

I am going to consult some other "people in positions of importance" to suggest what the trophy could be called.

The racing should be in the spirit of "Only Here for the Beer".

I have three/four cars of the "big banger" variety on the list, and I'm fairly sure I can attract some other "well known" cars out of the woodwork.

So where are you all! Stand up and be counted.

As Lord Horatio Herbert Kitchener said "Your Country Needs YOU"

PM Me if you are interested, or you know where a car is laguishing just pining to burst back into life.....
