First event of the Grass season has been cancelled due to crap weather so might the second so first event might not be until 12 may and I need a fix!

Autosolos can be triple drive entries, it makes it more exciting than sprinting as you can compare times like for like. 3 drivers of the same car, its clearly evident who is quickest ;-)

The golf is sorned and has been for quite some time
It is to much hassle and unwanted expense to have on the road
If have to bring the impreza and pray for rain

Or could bring the focus to see how it goes in full factory trim

I am in north norfolk all week next week if you fancy an ale and a chat or give me a call. You will find that the modifications to your car will be what may restrict you the mpst. I am more than happy to help explain rules in plain english and help with finding cheap events. There is an autosolo coming up at north weald with entry fees of about

We don't blacklist anyone, we would welcome your membership and anyone elses, we don't care what you drive or what form of motoring interests you. I would gladly help you and anyone else in any way I can to get you involved in as many events as possible.

Here is an application form in pdf format.

If your car is road legal then it is perfectly suitable for AutoSolo. The modifications will determine what class it would have to go into for sprinting.

I have taken on board what you have said about the MSA Blue Book and I will write a section for the new HCC website on getting started in each form of motorsport.

The offer still stands for a chat on the phone or by email or over a pint some time.
