There is no fee for joining the Championship, but it is closed to club, so membership of the Harrow Car Club (

My point about the Jap cars was more to qualify whether I need to use the GTR or the DD :D

DD?

The champ is for Japanese Cars only, but there is nothing to stop you entering other classes for fun :)

It would be good to have some of you guys along, I'd heard there were alot of doers here :grin:

Makes sense when weve spent so much time and cash on the cars to use them properly :twisted:
