Pending any freak snowfalls ... The first round on the 750MC Roadsports will take place next weekend at Snetterton.

Any other PH'ers going ?

Yes! biggrin Our first race in No. 55 White Mk1 MR2. Because of the snow means we have 4 races in 7 weeks though eek, including a round trip to Pembrey. headache

Was meant to do Donny, but having to miss Snetterton as in Imola for ELMS, but our CRX will be out at Rockingham.

Porsche Boxster #96
Looking forward to it - really interested to know what else is on the grid ?
Sadly the entry list doesn't give us the make/model of cars

Is the Roadsports race on the 25th or the 26th?

Mazda MX 5 #63

After the debacle of the whole Ma5da v Brscc thing, I fancied a new challenge.

See you on Sunday

Excellent - I enjoyed the CSCC races we did and hope the 750MC are in the same vein smile

I'm racing in Sports Specials this year but since they're not at Snetterton I'm doing Roadsports in an MR2 turbo. I've chosen to share the drive as well. We're also bringing another mk2 MR2 turbo, a regular MR2 Roadster, and two MR2 Roadsters with 3.5l V6 engines.

What's a MR2 Turbo do around the 200lap ?

What a great inaugural Roadsport race yesterday !
Great driving by the whole field - especially the back markers.
A real mix of cars and different abilities made for an action packed 45mins of racing.

I think adding the SR&GT's made for a bigger grid but did break up the racing a bit - so perhaps we just need our own grid for the next race (if numbers allow)

A really nice atmosphere - special thanks to Sean & Mike for their help on the day.

Top job.

I saw the ambulance and the car being returned to the pits - looked a proper wreck.
From 750MC - It was a 205 in the Classic Stock Hatch that rolled, but he emerged relatively unscathed.


The Roadsports were a lot of fun - it's not often that one gets to overtake a 917 and a GT40 smile
(OK - replicas but still )

Here's the video of my stint - you feature in it quite heavily woof!

Having had a hand in the regulations for this series (it was based on the now defunct MR2 Super GT series) I was very pleased that it turned out the way it did.

Excellent !
It was a good format - worked very well smile
I think Donington will be equally good - especially with the time penalties (what do I get ? )

( i wondered what happened to you first corner ! that Lotus was really slow in the corners - I think the SRGT cars need to live somewhere else )
