Plans for next season - 10-Tenths Motorsport Forum

Tracey · 23 Dec 2004, 16:41

Just thought I'd ask everyone what events they hope to do next year, plus how they choose them.

I can't plan much outside of mid June to September due to pretty heavy course commitments, but plan to follow the MG Total Butler Championship (plus other MG meetings) again and the LMES and lawnmowers, as well as much as I can fit in with BRSCC EA Rescue - hopefully I won't be on crutches next year!

I make my choices based on what I enjoyed last year, and anything that looks new and interesting

As it will be my first full year I want to do as much as possible.
Hope to have a look at Brands, Thurxton and Gurston Down at least.
But will still do the odd rally & sprint, as have done for a number of years.

Not so sure about 2005 - might not be doing anything if work gets in the way!

However, if all goes to plan, I would really like to get to Cadwell Park - especially for the MGCC and the 750 team.
Not bothered about doing the BTCC/GT's/F3's/F1.....been there done that!

Will hopefully support the BRSCC NW @ Oulton & Anglesey again.

May well just stick to Rockingham, MGCCs and karting

I plan to do a lot of Zandvoort meetings as a marshal, hope to do some racing (budget!), and 'as allways' I'll be around for the festival at Brands.

As usual Cadwell and the odd trips to Croft, Mallory, & Silverstone.
Also hope to visit Knockhill for the first time.

Seasons greetings to you all, and hope to see as many as possible in 2005

There is a group of 7 of us that usually plan on working every other weekend through out the season.
We take the schedule and work it both ways from the 6hr. weekend in June. Every two weeks in both directions. It's easy to do for me as I work at a government run university and have the summers off from there. My summer employer also enjoys racing and has no problem with me taking a Thursday and or Friday off.
So my racing season looks like this, Porsche Clash, 6 Hours of the Glen, SCCA Glen Nationals, NASCAR, U.S. Vintage GP, the IRL fall race, the SCCA Trout Run Hillclimbs, and the Susquehanock Pro Trail Rally. And from time to time I'll go out to the local dirt track (winged sprints and late models) and help out. Now if I could just squeeze in a drag race I'd have it all covered.

Helping organise the "other festival of speed" at Lydden on September 10th. Giving out information at the Brentwood show. Already confirmed are the Camso V8s for a full championship round on the oval.

Just the usual 60 days! - everything the 750MC put on (as a C of C), same with the HSCC dates that dont clash & then fill in the missing days with whatevers on ay Mallory & Silverstone. Aim to go to Knockhill for the 1st time & also revisit Anglesey.
