New 40 min race series for post year 2000 cars

[Boxster66]

Chris, this has been my first dabble with CSCC racing this season, and I must say I will be back for more in 2015. Championships count for nothing at our level and just become a headache...this series enables you to pick and choose your rounds and the chance to compete with such a variety of cars. It's cost effective, I will have done a season on 1 set of tyres and 2 sets of brake pads....costs if split become even cheaper.... Remember to that your 986 can also be ran with me in the Modern Classics...rumour is that a couple more Boxsters will be joining soon too... I have 100% positive experience so far and really enjoy this pressure free, fun style series...

Thanks Andy and Will. Can you confirm the format? 30 minute qual and two 40 minute races? And would this normally be on a single day?

Chris.

Chris, 30 min qualifying and 1 x 40 min race always all on the same day.

Occasionally we have a Sports Vs Saloon race on the same day at extra cost, usually about £120 for a sprint race if you have already entered one of the other races. Sometimes, like at Anglesey in a couple of weeks time, we have a an extra 40 min Sports Vs Saloon race for an extra £195.

Once a year we go to Spa for a 30 min qual and 2 x 40 min races over 3 days. This year the entry for that was £550.

Hope that helps.

Thanks - I misread the first post!

Yes, they are eligible! Come and join us, you will be most welcome.

What is the roll cage requirement in the UK for open/screenless cars like the Atom?

[andy97]

It will be in the MSA's Blue Book of regs. I couldn't tell you off the top of my head. Can be accessed on line.

K.1.6.1 (a) of the blue book covers it.
My car is production under 2000 cc so it's legal as is. The Atom Cup cars run a slightly different design with forward facing uprights.

[andy97]

It would be great to see a gaggle of Atoms out in the series. Would be very competitive I would think.

They're almost as fast in a sub 2.0 class as a tuned Lotus, eh Lee?

[hondansx]

Looks like our Evora and NSX will have somewhere to do battle against each other then!

[andy97]

In my original post i should have said that we will have 2 races this year at Donington in August and Snetterton in October (not Oulton in Sept), sorry.

Come and sign up and give it a go.

[andy97]

Entries for the Donington race on 30 August still available, although after COP tomorrow a late entry fee may apply.

booked on both MC and NEw Millenium now , not sure we will be anywhere in the new race as at 2.5 litres we will be up against the m3s

[Card]

All booked into the Doningotn race for the new series. Also booked in the Future Classics as well.

Looking forward to it.

This new series sounds great Andy ,I've been building a Honda Civic type R with a sequential gearbox over the last 12 months with the intention of running it in Britcar next year but the main drawback being the cost. I would be very interested in joining this series for 2015 any chance of a night race?

[andy97]

Dan, this series will be way cheaper than Britcar!

We have done a night race in the past but it was a one off. It may happen again, and I will suggest it, but I think we need to establish the series first.

A big thank you to the CSCC!

Myself and my friend in our clio cup racers thoroughly enjoyed ourselves on Saturday for the 'New Millenium' race.

Nice to meet you Andy, we'll see you at Snetterton!!

[andy97]

Glad you enjoyed it. A good turn out of 15 cars for the first ever race in this potential new series. Hopefully it will grow from here and we have already had enquiries from Ginetta G40 racers for Snetterton, too.

Cars ranging from TVRs and BMWs at the front to Ford Pumas, but good driving standards throughout. The Clio Cup cars looked fantastic and are ideal cars for this series, well done.
