Southport Sprint - Sept 2023

Post by mk1 »

Anyone else fancy this?

Reminiscent of the great promenade sprints that were so common years ago.

I'm taking the Lotus & Adam's taking the Austin, would be good to see a few members there.

Looks great. I deal with a garage in Southport, been trading for 100 years. The walls are covered with photos of them competing on original events, as well as Woodvale . They ran a Downton Cooper at one point.

Kop hillclimb is a GREAT event either to take part in or just spectate. Lots to see there and a fabulous variety of cars without it costing a fortune 8-)
Not that I'm trying to take anything away from the Southport event of course which I'm sure will also be excellent ;)
