Brilliant set of photos from Lydden 9th September. Every race gets good coverage, including Mr.Cherry's antics at frightening the "cows" on the infield!
Thanks Kelvin |

CSCC Tintops MGCC National May try LMA
CSCC tintops for me simple regs good driving standards, but will do the silverstone national meeting with the MGCC, if they let a M3 superlite and GT3 out they will have the Renault out on the case!!! The joys of staying a member they accept your entry's.
Any other tintop racers out there? |

Next year I will mostly be driving my E30 M3 back from Germany / France to race in CTCRC Pre-93 & some Classic Mod-Prod type races where I can do them back-to-back.....
I doubt I will get to do a full season, and how many races I do will depend on weather I can find somewhere in the UK to keep the car, but I am hoping to do more than the three races I did this year... Cheers Rob |

I guess you mean the draft Pre-93 regs Al
I've extracted the substantive changes and posted them below. Just to be clear, they are still draft, but I'm not expecting anything to change. 5.2.1 Cars will run in five classes based on production capacity: Class A Over 2989c Class B 2501cc to 2989cc Class C 2001cc to 2500cc Class D 1601cc to 2000cc Class E Up to 1600cc and cars fully compliant with the CTCRC Production BMW Championship regulations The following rules will also be applied cumulatively; • Forced induction is subject to an equivalency factor of 1.7 • Rotary engines are subject to an equivalency factor of 1.8 • Rotary engined vehicles will move up one class • Naturally aspirated cars 2000cc and over, with 2 valves per cylinder are subject to an equivalency factor of 0.8. The Ford Cosworth Sierra may run in Group "N" spec (details on request) and with an intake restrictor of 36mm. Cars with a number of injectors in excess of the number of cylinders are not eligible for this series. The E36 M3 EVO, Nissan Skyline and Escort Cosworth or components homologated for these vehicles are not eligible for this series. 5.12 Wheels and Tyres: 5.12 Wheels: 5.12.1 Road wheels must be no greater diameter than the original diameter plus 2” to a maximum of 18”, fastened to their hubs by the original number of studs/bolts. Centre locking wheels and their hubs are prohibited. Material is free. However, an original diameter wheel must be able to be fitted to the hub, as and when required. This effectively precludes the fitting of brake systems which are a larger diameter than the original wheels will allow. Competitors must supply an original diameter wheel on request. Maximum permitted rim widths are: Class A 9.0" Class B 9.0" Class C 8.0" Class D 7.0" Class E 7.0" 5.12.2 Tyres The control tyre for the series is the Toyo R888. Dunlop Formula 'R' D84J tyres will also be eligible. 5.15 Weights: Minimum weights Cars built between 1983 and 1992 (inclusive) - The published Kerb weight minus 10%. This includes the driver, normally seated with racing overalls and helmet only. Cars complying with CTCRC Post Historic Touring Car regulations, CTCRC Group One Touring Car regulations or CTCRC Production BMW regulations – at the weight determined in their specific championship Kerb weights will be determined by reference to the Glass’s Car checkbook, or by committee sourced reference material. The committee’s decision is final. These are true minimum weights with no tolerance and all cars must comply at all times. Ballast is permitted to achieve these minimum weights but weight may only be removed within the limits of the modifications detailed within these regulations. Ballast must be securely attached within the habitacle and attachment bolts predrilled for the purpose of attaching scrutineers wire seals. The total weight of ballast carried, must be declared in the scrutineering log book and be in position at all times during practice and racing. All cars must comply with these weight limits irrespective irrespective of the year of manufacture and any other championship regulations or waivers. |

Will a good curry the nght before and a pocket full of loose change count as ballast :-). Seriously John can you post it under its own heading for more impact?

Sorry to dredge up such an old thread, but thought I'd add my 2p... just recently won a scholarship in the SMRC Scottish Legends Championship so I'm embarking on my first ever stint of real racing.... pretty nervous but looking forward to it nonetheless! Here's my blog-o-mediocrity - http://mikexr2.blogspot.com/index.html

I am yet to finish the motor that I wanted when I posted 5 months ago, but work has just restarted |
