As i'm an oldie my favourite hillclimb has to be Pontypool Park in South Wales, actually had a first in class there in my early years. Scary place, trees lining the course with straw bales propped against them. Saw John Northcroft breaking his Marcos Volvo in half against one. Also Penrice on the Gower peninsula, beautiful setting but lost because of apathy. Valence School was great fun, when you got to the top the kids were waiting to have a run back down the hill. Still got the car (modsports midget), may resurrect it one day.
