As Copperbottom points out, you would need a MSA Licence and the blue book will give you all the safety stuff you need to know. There is a class for pretty much everything at the Brighton Speed trials although new people turning up with full on Door-Slammers tends to get frowned upon! You also need to be a member of the Brighton and Hove Motor Club or have been invited by them.

The forcast for Saturday at the moment (fingers crossed!) looks good for the event-its a very good entry as well and should be a great day out!

Look us up, Snapper Baz. I will be on the spanners for Jim Tillers Allard.

Good grief - is Jim Tiller still peddling that Allard? I remember him when I was doing sprints and hillclimbs in the 60's! In fact I recall him pulling out a map when on a Valence hillclimb startline, and all deadpan asking the bemused marshall for directions - and then he went, like a rocket. Had us all in stitches.

Hell yeah baby! Allard is sweet at the moment to, we are expecting nothing less than F.T.D!!

I'm sure he can pull it off as well...only hours to go before we find out and smell all that burning rubber again around the startline!!

Sorry you had such a fraught day-the potential was there for another FTD but the gremlins seemed to give you a hard time...next time maybe?

Yeah, sorry i couldn,t stop and chat. The torque converter had a problem which is why Jimmer couldn't launch her properly. We will be back though! Well done to my old boss Gary for winning the day! Lovely weather though wasn't it?

Thought Mike Endean won the day with a 9.95? Gary "only" did a 10.07!

I don't think the run off counts for FTD
