First event of the season is on Sunday 8th April - Jim Clark commemorative meeting.
Hopefully the arctic chill and sleet will cease in time for a great day's racing.

Classics have Feature Race Billing, including a grid walk.
Eighteen entries so far - details of all races and timetable at:

April 8th

The Jim Clark Memorial Meeting at Knockhill took place in fine weather.
During the lunchtime grid walk for spectators, SMRC Chairman, Sandy Denham, paid tribute to Jim, followed by a lengthy period of applause from the crowd.

Competing in his first event at the circuit, Robert Bremner, AC Cobra, was fastest qualifier and winner of both races. He was followed each time by the Rover SD1 of John Kinmond, who provided great entertainment with sideways driving. Raymond Boyd, Porsche 911, was third in each race.

Race one had Jimmy Crow, Escort RS2000, in fourth place, Alastair Baptie, Fiat X1/9 and Mario Ferrari, Alfasud Sprint, close behind.
Andy Graham, Triumph TR7V8, retired from race one but completed race two in fourth place, Baptie fifth and Crow sixth.

A new class for 2018, MK II Fiesta XR2, had three entries, Martin Ramsay, Duncan Fox and Duncan O’Neill, Ramsay winning the class in both races.

First time out for Craig Houston, Lotus Excel – unfortunately his day ended after qualifying, due to engine problems.


Next event is on May6th (anti-clockwise).

Ian, you will be made welcome! Your Escort is perfect for Classic Sports and Saloons, which has a 'guest' category for occasional or one-off competitors.

Alternatively, if there are Formula Junior races next year, you could join in.
