Division 1
1. 'Mad Mark' - Citroen Xsara
2. Tony Bell - Toyota Corolla
11. Christopher Evans - Opel Astra
49. Bob Gooding - Ford Escort RS2000 (Is this modern)?
69. David Binks - Mitsubishi Lancer EV0 7
77. Aiden McCullagh - Peugeot 206

Cant wait to see the Super Nationals back again and the Volvos and theat Mercedes do battle again
I wonder if that Suzuki will be back

Guffy · 17 Jul 2008, 07:56 (Ref:2252466)

If the organisers are trying to promote a modern event, the yes, why is Bob Gooding being allowed an entry....? But then again they allow Super National 240 Volvos that are older than Group B, ok i know they are in a different class., but surelt the principals should be the same for the 2 top classes...!

chunder · 17 Jul 2008, 10:16 (Ref:2252531)

Oh dear

Can we move on please!!

Please see my answer on another thread - its not about age its about homologation group! These are the same rules that have operated for several years.

Oh sorry, i thought PS & Co wanted cars that comply to European spec rules, of which i would have thought BGs Escort wouldn't comply, but then again Ollies 306 doesn't comply & is allowed to run...!

I'll be chucking an entry in for this event, so count me in there

Great Simon! I will be looking forward to see that black Scooby on Motors TV! Do you have any plans of participate in any ERC event this year? Or maybe next year? Anyway Lycka Till

sihorton · 18 Jul 2008, 08:27 (Ref:2253169)

Probubly not this year if i'm honest, just want to find our feet first and make sure things are relighable before venturing on to the continent, but i dare say we will have a go next year at some point. I'd love to have a play in norway or sweden, but it's just the cost of getting there thats the killer.

I do plan to have a play across the sea at mondello later this year though.

Minicross424 · 18 Jul 2008, 16:29 (Ref:2253439)

Bobs other car might be ready by then.

mel tyres · 18 Jul 2008, 17:18 (Ref:2253475)

M.Lowe · 18 Jul 2008, 18:57 (Ref:2253532)

That will make two of us. You only live once Si!!

Sweden here we come!!

PhilChicken · 20 Jul 2008, 14:30 (Ref:2254572)

Does anyone think Grunholme, or any of the other top european boys will be out to play in the wet and cold. (it is croft after all)

M.Lowe · 20 Jul 2008, 14:45 (Ref:2254587)

Who knows Phil
I heard his itinery is
get out of Motorhome into the garage and in the car, then race come in out of car and back into motorhome for a warm till next race ;-)

If Hansen could persuade him and the team can get a good deal to come then maybe

craig hope · 20 Jul 2008, 21:07 (Ref:2254826)

would be good to get some new cars over here...

about time we had another internations event.....

you never know Hansen seems to enjoy it as it is fast at croft to what they used too so if he tells them how good you never know

sjones · 21 Jul 2008, 19:26 (Ref:2255442)

Some Finnish Supernational drivers would be good, Those nutters are more insane than the Norweigens!

M.Lowe · 6 Aug 2008, 11:07 (Ref:2264393)

A while back I mentioned that it would be good to get Gronholm over for the Superprix, then heard whispers it was trying to be done (at the time wasn't sure if true or not)

Now today in MN it says by Sean Moriarty "GRONHOLM KEEN ON SUPERPRIX"

Apparently the organisers have phoned Andreas Erikksson but nothing is concrete at the moment

Hopefully if Gronholm comes then it will be a massive scoop for the organisers and Get Connected and SG Petch

**BertMk2** · 6 Aug 2008, 11:13 (Ref:2264397)

Getting Gronholm over for the Superprix would be fantastic for British rallycross

silver bullet · 6 Aug 2008, 11:25 (Ref:2264405)

It would be great to see Marcus at the Superprix, and after reading the headline I was really excited, but when I read the article was much less so.

According to the article someone from the evet sponsers has spoken to Marcus, and the organisers have spoken to Eriksson.
The line in the article that says the most is a quote from Andreas Eriksson

Quote:

I have not spoken to Marcus about this at all and we do not have any plans to be there at the moment

I hope that a deal is put together to get Marcus to the Superprix, but it's early days yet.

CS1 · 6 Aug 2008, 11:41 (Ref:2264415)

I have heard Eriksson is actually trying to bring over all four fiestas if its possible. Hedstrom, Gronholm and Solberg's car with eprhaps Opland in it - now that would be awesome!!

chunder · 6 Aug 2008, 14:10 (Ref:2264508)

Have heard this type of thing before form these people

It's just propaganda to try and get you to buy pre event tickets

Nothing wrong with that but the number of names I have seen associated with this event over the years, compared to the number actually competing is very different.

As I say I havent a problem with pre event promotion, but dont beuy a ticket presuming Marcus will be there, Andreas has never done the event before to my knowledge.

CS1 · 6 Aug 2008, 15:07 (Ref:2264545)

He has only been in rallycross for 3 years!!!

Do you really think motorsport news would print a front page headline on the whims and rumours of the organisers....?????

The NOTW do ok out of whims and rumours

Just hope it comes off, but forget Gronholm as the Silver Bullet will be there with the madhead service crew
