Going off talk on A N Other forum - it sounds like its run like the practice/qualifying sessions of a normal race - the cars are circulating for 20 mins, trying to put in quick times.
Mainly aimed at jap. turbo nutter machines, boosted to within a inch of their lives. and that the rounds are often held alongside tuning shows and drift competitions. As its not an MSA event - marshals/rescue units/ambulance are probivided by the venue, like a trackday. |

 , this is well worth looking at if you like machines heavily tweaked. Some of these are super-quick with professional drivers running alongside the owner-drivers.Have a look here; http://www.timeattack.co.uk/index.html and for volunteering; http://tentenths.com/forum/showthread.php?t=107390 |

I guess because more cars are on track there will be some possibility of having to pass other cars as well which is a no-no in sprinting
Most sprints have only 2 or 3 cars on track at any time and if a competitor catches an other he/ she will get a re run |

It's worth watching,all the cars are highly modified.
Club class cars from 350 to 700ish bhp Pro cars 600 to 900 bhp with current pro drivers Tom Ferrier,Guy Harrington.Duncan Tappy won the first round at Donnington,this weekend there is also a seperate class just for Mitsubishi Evo's. Olly Clarke won the round at Knockhill with a low 52 sec lap. |

What's the status of these events for insurance purposes?
Are marshals insured for any injuries received in case of an incident? Are they paid as per a test day? It's my local track so 'may' be interested to see something different - although the Irish are at Anglesey so there may be more 'incidents' there

Was it any good? My wife was speaking to someone at work yesterday who went. He said it was a really good day with some fantastic cars and a good crowd. Weather was good too, raining all the way there but cleared up for the rest of the day. As far as Marshals were concerned he said there were hardly any there, with just one on a post, which is hardly surprising due to the lack of tickets!! |
