Hi,

my new allround competition car (classic rally, autotest, autosolo, hillclimb, sprint) is arriving any day so I thought I'd better start booking this year's events. I'm ok for the rallies and autotests / solos but I need to change championship for sprints / hillclimbs becuase the last one was marque-specific. I'll only do a couple of sprints / hills this year but it would be nice to be in a class with another competitor or against a realistic target time. I realise this is going to be difficult but there might be a class out there that would suit it / me.

Car is an absolutely standard 1981 Mk1 Golf GTI 1600.

Any ideas?

Excellent answer and good news. Thanks. AEMC (I'm already a memeber of an Eastern Club) has a class for standard cars up to 1600, so I might have a chance there. It even had two regular competitors last year!
ACSMC has a similar class but I can't see from a quick glance if it has any competitors.

ASWMC hillclimb championship may be too much of a trek for you but there is always a good turn out in A2 roadgoing 1400 - 1800cc and there is bound to be someone putting in similar times to compete with. There is another Golf in that class although it is slightly 'improved' over standard.
