2015 Race Calendar
Some dates are confirmed, some still 'provisional', some are rumours, but the Year Planner is on the wall and marked to date. The big meetings so far.....
March 21-22 Goodwood March 27-29 Mugello, Peter Auto April 4-5 Thruxton, HSCC (Easter) April 10-12 Hockenheim, Jim Clark April 17-19 Barcelona Catalunya Classic, Masters- rumoured HGPCA & poss Lurani joining? May 2-4 Donington Historic Festival May 15-17 Pau Historique May 16/17 Silverstone International, HSCC and maybe GTSCC again? May 22-24 Spa Classic, Peter Auto- and Whoops....... May 23-25 Brands Hatch, Masters (Guess from previous years) June 5-7 Dijon L'Age d'Or, Peter Auto June 13/14 Snetterton Autosport 3hr, HSCC- and GTSCC? July 3-5 Brno GP Revival. On their website, but any UK grids? July 11-12 Brands Hatch Superprix, HSCC July 23-26 Silverstone Classic August 1/2 Copenhagen GP, maybe a UK grid or two? August 7-9 Nurburgring OldTimer August 29-31 Oulton Park Gold Cup, HSCC, or..... August 28-30 Zandvoort HGP, Masters. (Also guess from previous years!) September 11-13 Goodwood Revival September 18-20 Spa 6hrs October 2-4 Le Castellet (Ricard), Peter Auto October 16-18 or 23-25 Algarve Classic, Portimao Couple of big clashes there, won't do grid sizes much good for organisers. There were rumours in Spain last month that Jerez event may not be repeated in 2015, so still waiting on that one. And if Portimao goes for Oct 23-25, I'm in trouble, as my Nephew is getting married on 24th- booked 18 months in advance..... Any more? |

Alan,
The best news out of your HSCC dates is Donington at end-May - a welcome change from the normal Donington FreezeFest in March ... How did you come by these dates ...? Nick |

I agree about Donington - HSCC members will now hopefully be able to view Donington in something other than low cloud and drizzle!
The dates were revealed at the HSCC board meeting last Thursday. |

Thanks Alan for filling in the rest of the HSCC dates. I know I had them but thought someone else could add to the thread! My post was at second attempt- first on iPad failed when it froze. One of the 'improvements' from latest operating system, presumably!
Shame about Croft and Gold Cup clashes, but apart from them pleasantly clash-free- so far...... |

Thanks for that Mike. I would hope the choice between your nephew's wedding and racing for a plastic cup is a no brainer!
JT do you have the AMOC dates yet and do you know if they will have the same support races next year? The main take away for me is that there are so many good meetings in Blighty I can go another year on a Nat A and save a shed load of money!! Do we also know yet if the helmet and race suit ratings are changing? They have been threatening it for some time |

looks the same as last year and this to me, overlaps/clashes and very close dates.
oh to be retired and wealthy enough to take advantage. Spa Classic is top of my list there. |

Yes, apart from the odd move most meetings pretty much the same. P.A. Mugello moving to late March from April apparently led to Goodwood moving a week earlier so's not to clash. IMHO biggest hit will be if Masters hold their Brands festival on the late May bank holiday w/end as usual, and clash with Spa Classic... |

I am a mostly very happy member of the HSCC and have been for years, but my goodness it's the leakiest bucket known to man. Why on earth is there more info on next year's calendar here than on the HSCC website. If it was the first time this had happened it wouldn't be worth mentioning, but it's every time the club does or decides anything!

There's also more on here than on Masters or Peter Auto websites! Surprising what can be found or deduced via a little research. Good old Internet. As for HSCC, perhaps the fact that all dates are "provisional" until confirmed and posted on their website should be emphasised......

I might be sticking my neck out here but HRDC seldom gets as much recognition on here as, say, HSCC, but Julius runs a damn good show despite comments about clashes with another popular event in the east of the country. From a driver's perspective the grids are full and fair and often without the massive disparity in power on some of the HSCC events for similar vehicles. I am not being in the least disparaging about HSCC which for me has given some superb events but for those of us running what some may consider more run of the mill type hysterics HRDC may not always grab the headlines but is a cracking series |

If I could find provisional or otherwise dates for HRDC I'd post them! I did try, honest....
Meanwhile, via the simplest of searches on google, we have provisional AMOCR. Copied so their words not mine- Saturday 16th May - Oulton Park International Circuit Sunday 28th June - Donington Park National Circuit Saturday 18th July - Snetterton 300 Circuit Saturday 5th & Sunday 6th September - Brands Hatch Indy & GP Circuits Sunday 20th September - AMOC Racing Curborough Sprint Saturday 10th October - Silverstone National Circuit Please note that these dates are provisional and may be subject to change Interesting no late September Snetterton date with VSCC next day. Maybe July instead? I am guessing from this year's calendar that the Brands Sept 5/6 dates will include GTSCC. In which case if Portimao is confirmed for mid / late October and they join in, their series will be 4 races, same as this year. |

>>>>>>>Do we also know yet if the helmet and race suit ratings are changing
Yes we do know. Alas racesuit regs stay the same, helmets also unless you have an ageing Snell 2000 lid which will go out of use at the end of next month. Hence the avatar! Sorry for the diversion in reply to a direct question now back to topic. |

Dates clash!!!
Interesting to note that the HSCC and MGCC are both listing Donington Park on the 30th May. Just demonstrates what "provisional" means. I'm sure that it'll all become clearer well before Christmas....... |
