I've been trying to get started in Hillcimbing/Sprinting for a while now. I have my Nat B license, and the choice of 2 cars to use.

I have a classic Mini and a Nissan 200sx. I think the Mini is ruled out of any road going classes because it has been deseamed so falls foul of the reg that states the silhouette should remain unchanged.

The Nissan is lightly modified - exhaust, air filter, lowered. I think this is probably easier to get within the regs, I think all it needs is a cage and an extinguisher.

I am struggling to find a motorclub or series to get me started, I have looked at Time Attack, but that is already mid-season and does not seem to allow entries until next year.

Can anyone offer advice? I'm in the South East, Near Ascot if that helps...

Thanks all, bit of reading for me to there this evening!

Does it sound like the mini is unsuitable?
