"Magnificent 7" Race series
Discussion
The Classic Sports Car Club (CSCC) is to introduce a series of 30 minute qualifying and 40 minute pitstop races for one or two drivers and one or two cars based on the Lotus Seven concept in 2009.
There was an announcement about it in last weeks Autosport (11 Dec 08).
All cars that are based around the 7 concept will be eligible.
Details will be available on the club stand at the Autosport Show.

Hi
This championship is looking like a real alternative to the Kitcar championship. Assuming you are running a Seven type car obviously.
We are thinking of running 3-4 off our LA Golds if all goes to plan and depending on what happens in the kit championship. Looks like it will offer better value for money and offer the drivers the chance to share a car as double drivers or conventional with a single driver.
Just have to build some bigger petrol tanks due to the current ones being built for the 15-20 minute usual sprint races.
So looking forward to getting involved with this championship looks like being fun and value for money.
Cheers Matt

Any room for bike engined sevens in the series ?
I think so, keep an eye on the CSCC web site for details, they have not been released yet. There will be an official announcement ay the Autosport show but CSCC does not usually go in for too much detail in its series'. Regs in CSCC series are usually fairly free to encourage max participation and to save costs through not having to pay fore technical scrutineers.
