Great stuff.

Unfortunately I can't make Apr North Weald and June Abingdon due to other racing commitments (marathon and a 75km mountain bike ride) but the others are firmly in my diary. Will look forward to seeing the August dates, and hope to be able to make 8 rounds.

Might there be more than 2 sacrificial rounds, by any chance? I'll do everything I can to do 8 rounds this year, but the diary seems to have lots of running and cycling in it already :grin:

With a standardish engine, I'm going for a weight advantage by doing lots of exercise :D

If I ever get to collect the car then it is more of a D8 than a B3. Doubt it will have the legs of yours though.

Spence said Abingdon was popular and fills up quickly so early entries are a must.

Is that for the shakedown sprint? Cool! Old school! The cars were a bit different in those days and I seem to remember they kept cocking up the timing on my runs so I managed to put a quick one in on warm tyres :)

Its up for discussion Andy, not sure we will be able to cater for everyone but all flexible at this stage.

I had a completely standard engine last year, it didnt let go (unlike the gearboxes).

Verytrue about Abingdon filling up quickly. I was lucky and got a cancellation a week before.

Offers still there for a ride oop north this Sunday.

Hmmm! Forgot about all the extra re-runs and practices you got through. :roll:

Just checking calendars and wondering if June 15 Lydden is the B19 event? If so they're calendar has June 14th which is a Saturday :?:

Abingdon is possibly Saturday June 7th for the sprint as they run a rally stage on the Sunday.
