I'm hoping to finally get my Westfield back out again after a few years off and will either run it in the 750MC Kit Car championship or possibly move over to the BARC Westfield championship.
Hello Ed, good luck mate, I'll come and see you! Seems like ages ago we raced in kits, cheers, Jon.
Hi Jon, long time since I saw you last! Are you still racing and how's your mate the fireman?

Would be good to see another 'new' car out with BARC Westfield championship. I'm hoping to be out in that series this year. Car 41 (PH sticker on the back!)
Another one for the BARC Westfield series! Go on Ed, the world needs another orange race car. biggrin Got and replied to your email earlier Sylva41 smile
Yep - you can never have enough orange race cars! They're faster than the blue/yellow ones too! biggrin

We'll be hillclimbing our MP87... we're both trying to figure out which championship we go for, probably the midland hillclimb championship but we'll undoubtedly do some of the national rounds so we can get to Harewood, Gurston and Wiscombe...

Anyone other hillclimbers out there?

For 2008 onwards, Westfield introduced the Aerorace 2.0l (class A).
Most of the competitors are still using the 1.8 (class B)

....Class B won the championship and they are faster than A! irked

Tell me about it! hehe

Will be in touch at some point as I'd like to book my car in for a bit of a tidy up and some upgrades before I try and remember how to drive the thing!

In the right hands they do seem to be better geared but Ben Elliot showed the Aero Race is still capable of running at the front. I think the classes are very close, Westfield would probably like the Class A to have a slight advantage just to tempt all those B guys to upgrade but so far it's pretty evennow they've found some more BHP!

Matt, I'm trying to persuade cokey to get his LA out for the Magnificent 7's but he's being a big gay! I would have thought with her 2.0l XE and fat ACB10's she'll be competitive - we just need to work on him. I am right in assuming it's a two driver jobby??

True!

Just noticed you raced in Kits 06 so think we must've raced against each other at some point, probably Lydden.

Can be 2 drivers sharing a car, 2 cars running in a relay format or one driver driving on their own (but still doing the pit stop).

Hi John

As said by the others it's for two drivers in one car or two drivers in there own cars. Or one driver on his own with a pitstop still required.Or at least that is how they explained it to us at the show. It just about covers all senarios. Would be good to have an other LA out there in this serise. At the moment we will have two cars not sure on how we are doing the driver setup in different cars as yet.
Just looks like too much fun to turn down.

Can not think who he could use as a second drive though. Any thoughts. biggrin

Cheers Matt
