In answer to Billy's comment, I can confirm that MK1 Performance Conversions will once again be sponsoring Class C19 at the Harewood Classic & Vintage in June.

Hopefully we can make it the largest class of the day for the second year running.

Just learned that there should be a Gp B rally car class at the Prescott Hill Climb on 23rd June. See motorsport news. If anyone fancies a trip to Prescott on 23rd June please let me know and I'll see if I can get a Mk1 forum parking area as it is my local venue.

Due to uncertainty surrounding the events being held, funding, administration etc by National Museums (Northern Ireland), compounded by the fact that we still don't have a working executive at Stormont, the Cultra Hillclimb that is held at the Ulster Folk and Transport Museum on 9th June has unfortunately been cancelled :(

Fingers crossed it will be back bigger and better next year.

The shortness is the main reason that I haven't managed to get my finger out in the past. There is lots of other stuff going on too though.

Oh I had my confirmation this morning & Adam & I got the last 2 spots :D
