Just gunna create this as a spot for people to share about their racing experiences.
Fir me this is what I want to be able to do. Spit and sawdust racing. Fir me the best series going on at the moment is QNM saloons or the Hamerite Thundersaloons. These contains crazy cars and always have crazy racing.

The Quaife series looks great, its seems to be the place where people race cars that don't really fit anywhere else.... Maybe I'l try and get my Puma and outing it in one day!

You'd also need accommodation. The cheapest series I've seen to get into from the get go is BMW compact cup. It's about £12/3k all in. Car, trailer, running costs etc. Time attack is basically a track day on steroids so if yiu just want competition not racing in particular that's probably the cheapest. |

Few mates have done time attack and even that isn't cheap, with the entry, sticker pack, brakes, tyres, food, hotels and that's without anything going wrong. Pretty sure the guys were saying they were doing £1,000 a meet.
On the other hand a pal is doing mini challenge in his own car and the team looking after him has charged him 30k for running it this season!!!

Hello, thought i'd lose my board virginity to this post  CSCC's cheap, classes to suit most things and some of the races allow for driver changes to keep the costs down, also with MSV trackday series, same kind of thing. There's a lot of doorbanging in the Spec BMW Compact Cup as with other spec series that BRSCC + 750MC do, but if you've got the money then the grids will be awesome, but it's expensive for what it is with a lot of professionally run teams running at a club level. Sprinting wise, has anyone tried Javelin Sprint Series? They do tracks and airfields as well as marque specific days (toyota + mazda) No MSA license, just a fairly simple signup proceedure, tow eye, hoops for convertables etc. |
