Quick! Is there a doctor in the house??
Discussion
My son is working in London but needs a medical to upgrade his licence to an International A for a race meeting on he 8/9th June. it's all come about a bit last minute. He's working in London, but his normal Dr is at home, 200 miles away, so a medical local to home isn't going to happen.
Can anyone suggest a friendly Dr. who can do a medical which involves a resting ECG PDQ.
It would be a shame to miss out on the meeting (Euro Nascars at Brands American Speedfest) 'cos he can't get a medical sorted. it's a 2 driver event, sharing the car, so the dangerous brothers were hoping to compete together.
They cars are pretty quick, at the Nogaro round his brother Stuart raced at earlier this year, Seb Loeb in his rather expensive mclaren gt car was only 6 seconds quicker than the EuroNascar's which are probably less than a tenth of the cost.
Hope someone can help, cheers.

I had one done by Mark Green at the autosport show a couple of years ago Highly recommended.

Since when did you need an International A for EuroRacecar? IntlC is enough!! It's not GP2!!
In fact, as it's on British soil, and he's British driver - I would have thought that a Nat.A would suffice.
Guessing that's a typo (Intl.A rather than Intl.C)
Is you other son under 40? If so, he doesn't need the ECG does he?, just the medical.
And the link (in the previous post) for the medical is going to be your best bet.
Nothing like short notice licence upgrades!!

It says a Nat A would suffice in the regs, but the chap at MSVR says as its an FIA event it must be an Int B. He's wrong, i'm arguing the toss but its his job so he's querying it with the MSA. I've spent 2 days solid on this trying to liase between the French organisers, MSA and MSVR.
It's stuff like this that puts me right off motorsport, its such a waste of time and energy. Gawd knows what its like in F1!
5.1 All drivers, competitors and officials participating in
the Series must hold current and valid license. This license can be either an International A, B, C
or Junior C as well as a National license, accompanied, for foreign drivers, by an
authorization of their own ASN.
