Just up loaded Tims footage from last weekends HSCC Silverstone Finals meeting. What a battle!

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oJs-n3sCubY

Don't forget the next Imp back had an epic battle of his own with our Mr YMJ.

It also shows a distant view of my attempt to climb into the boot of a Lotus Cortina who slowed more than I was expecting at turn 2

Epic fun. Enjoyed that. Thanks for sharing.

Sorry I couldn't join in.....CV joint had run dry hence the appalling lack of pace!

YMJ in action!

Thanks Steve. At least I now know when and on which lap I made my OSF tyre square!
But what I really want to know is....why was I the only one pinged 5 seconds for exceeding track limits??

No pictures from me as I was elsewhere.

However I've found another view of the epic battle, this time from Simon Benoy's Imp

And the Lotus that I gave a help off so he could have a fighting comeback

and Nick Paddy

Yes , it does seem a bit random. At Oulton when we got told which corners we would be prosecuted for, it was a question of one wheel off the track would get us clobbered like it was up to the circuit/organiser to specify. I thought it was two wheels right off


Next seasons calendar provisionally :

Castle Combe TBC – 22/23 April 2016

Silverstone GP (International Trophy) – 14/15 May 2016

Snetterton 300 – 4/5 June 2016

Cadwell Park (Wolds Trophy) – 8/19 June 2016

Brands Hatch GP (Historic Super Prix) – 2/3 July 2016

Cadwell Park (Wolds Trophy) – 6/7 August 2016

Oulton Park (Gold Cup) – 27/28/29 August 2016

Brands Hatch Indy – 24/25 September 2016

Silverstone National (Finals Day) – 15 October 2016

The Castle Combe one is a celebration of the 50th anniversary of the first HSCC race at Combe 50 years ago (I think)

So that's Friday 22nd and Saturday 23rd April at Combe, then?

I guess the Cadwell Park (Wolds Trophy) is the 18/19 June 2016 (11 day meeting?)

and August 6/7th is Croft not Cadwell.

Quite possibly as Combe have problems with racing on Sundays

Not quite accurate as Cadwell appears twice .... (Pasted from Hrsr website earlier today)

Edit. Just seen above post and suspect one of us has the right idea and it's not me

Have I seen you take that line into Maggotts in a Super Mighty mini race Tim but with more serious consequences ?

Not that I remember . Perhaps you should remind me or maybe not...........

If you cast your mind back I raced Paul Inches super a few times and you helped me into the gravel trap on the outside ! Perhaps you've erased it from your memory bank ?

Alan at the HSCC says was all wrong anyway.....first meeting is at Combe on the 16/17 April, fb Donington on 30th April-2nd May, with Silverstone GP 14/15 May. Having said that, there's not a written rule that there is necessarily an HRSR race on at an HSCC meeting.
Our household operates under "Calendar Law", which means first person to get their thing on the calendar "gets" that weekend. She's already bagged the 24th April (London Marathon), so it's all out war here at the moment!

Erm.... It's coming back to me very very faintly.....

Was it like the in car footage with Evan McHugh which ended up with him saying something starting with Fu.. and ending with ...cking arseholes
