Good stuff in 2009

[chevronb37]

After all the negativity from F1 at the moment, there is still loads to look forward to this year. What are you excited about? I'll get the ball rolling...

- New all-Mini saloon car race at the Goodwood Revival
- The big scrap at Le Mans between Peugeot and Audi
- Ford GT regularly competing in British GT

[Nick M]

Also on my calendar:

- European Rallycross at Lydden Hill
- FIA GTs at Silverstone
- Silverstone Classic

Now THAT will be worth the admission price alone

The annual must do's for me:
1. Rally show at chatsworth.
2. Silverstone Classic.
3. Oulton Gold Cup.
4. FIA GT at Silverstone

The ones i'd like to do if i get the time.
5. Goodwood FOS (not been yet)
6. Something at Snetterton as i haven't been there yet. Any recommendations outside of the BTCC?
7. Something at Cadwell as i haven't been there yet either!! Any recommendations?

- Silverstone Classic complete with camping, barbecue and booze will be a highlight.
- Oulton Park Gold Cup is always charming.
- FIA GTs should be a winner.
- AMOC Super GT is looking stunning this year too.
- I was thinking about the Superkart Grand Prix at Cadwell. Anyone been before?

VSCC Cadwell, 20th June is essential viewing.
Seeing the Napier Bentley smoke its tyres UP the Mountain is worth the entry fee alone.

vscc at prescott
british hillclimb championship at shelsley and prescott
the classic raceday at castle combe
silverstone classic (pretty much the same entry list as goodwood, half the price, half the crowds, double the access to the cars!)
1000km @ silverstone

[mattsayle]

The VW Cup (my favourtie championship) has its biggest entry list ever despite the credit crunch Even some drivers who are new to motorsport are taking part!

Thanks. Would make the long haul over there worthwhile but will probably go for a meeting when something a bit quicker is going round

Cheers.

Sure the VSCC sits just nicely with Cadwell.

Meant to be larger this year with two layouts apparently.

Thanks - unfortunately I am away that weekend.

There is good stuff including F1, closer racing due to aero rules and happy accident of evenly matched cars.

There is a CSCC Historics race on this weekend I'm thinking of attending.

[Norbury90]

Looking forward to the BTCC starting this weekend, even if it is a bit bare...
