MAY 2022 ....

We enjoyed a busy month of May, starting with the second SEGTO Championship round at Angmering and followed by further visits to Standlake Arena, The Kent Oval Outlaws at Lydden Hill, Tongham Motor Club and Swaffham Raceway, plus what's always one of the highlights of the Mini Seven season at Cadwell Park.

 

APRIL 2022 ....

A full and varied month taking advantage of all the sunshine,  with one highlight being our first visit to the new Kent Outlaw Oval Racing club that's establishing a new style of oval motorsport, very successfully, at Lydden Hill. Two days of excellent racing at Snetterton with the Mini Seven Racing Club, two more Saturday night dates with the Rolling Thunder Show at Swaffham, two very well supported SEGTO meetings at Tongham Motor Club and an Easter Monday trip to Standlake Arena completed a busy month.

 

MARCH 2022 ....

Our outings in March were restricted to two events; the first round of the SEGTO Championship, which will again be contested over three hard surface rounds at Angmering and three on dirt at Tongham, and the first event of the Rolling Thunder Show's busy Saturday night season at Swaffham. Our month was due to be completed with the first rounds of The Mini Seven Racing Club's Championships at Silverstone, but Covid had finally caught up with us....

 

JANUARY AND FEBRUARY 2022 ....

It's been a promising start to the year so far, despite the cancellation of the Autosport show, Motorsport with Attitude and Race Retro. Our year kicked off with the revival of the Oval Racing Expo, which provided a superb day's racing at Swaffham, if not quite on the scale yet of past events at Arena Essex. At the end of January we at last made it back to Ireland for the East Cork Hot Rod Club's Loftus Haulage Funsprint at Watergrasshill.

 

Mid-February saw us back on more local ground, for the season opener at Standlake Arena. Even at this stage of the year we're feeling the effect of clashing fixtures, with our last few outings keeping us away from the first very well supported events of what's sadly going to be the last season at Angmering Oval Raceway, but we were hoping to return to the south coast venue very soon.

 

COMING SOON ... Our June schedule is due to kick off over the Jubilee Holiday weekend with two visits to Angmering, including the third SEGTO Championship round. Then we'll follow the Mini Seven season to Castle Combe, before further events at Swaffham. We hope to return to Angmering for the last annual Scott West Memorial meeting, where a good turnout of Hot Rods is expected, followed by another visit to the Kent Oval Outlaws at Lydden, rounding the month off with a special event to commemmorate Tongham Motor Club's 50th anniversary.

ALMOST A NORMAL YEAR ... WITH A FEW DIFFERENCES

2021 for us was in danger of being dominated by off track matters - flooding in Alconbury village at Christmas 2020 meant that for much of the year we were exiled from racer.one HQ and dealings with insurers and contractors almost got in the way of racing activity. We never quite made it over the water this year; by the time we felt that Ireland was ready for us the weather intervened to thwart our visit to the end of season cup meeting at Ballymurn in Wexford. On the plus side we revived our active involvement with the Mini Seven Racing Club, a club which we've been part of for 45 years! After joining the Minis at Snetterton, Cadwell Park, Brands Hatch, Pembrey, Donington Park and Brands again (we just missed two rounds at Silverstone despite that being our nearest circuit!) the Mini Seven season is promising to be our top priority for 2022!  Our top oval circuit was of course Standlake Arena again and we had six trips to Oxfordshire, while we completed the year with a return to the other side of the Fens at Norfolk's Swaffham Raceway, which we expect to play a major part in our 2022 plans. On the Autograss front the always healthy club scene at Invicta Kent was the major draw and we fitted in five meetings there. We couldn't miss either the Stock Hatch Nationals or the Fastest Man on Grass, hosted by Sturton & Stow club, and of course there were the two National meetings at York and Radford. Again we have plenty of coverage of all these events to upload, so we'll start filling in the gaps - time permitting!

AUGUST 2020.... BACK IN ACTION

We're afraid our website updates were one thing that suffered during 2020. But we did get back to a few local events as the country slowly struggled back to life. With Autograss confined to "practice" events for the year (you wouldn't have known the difference!) we made it to three meetings at Invicta Kent and two at Scunthorpe. Among the oval raceways the independent track at Standlake came to the fore in applying all the right restrictions in a sensible and balanced way and we enjoyed three excellent late season meetings there, including the Outlaw F2 Open, which was again a highlight of the year. We have coverage of all these events waiting to be sorted and uploaded so we'll see when the workload allows us to catch up!

JANUARY & FEBRUARY 2020 ....

The first two months of our season were dominated by the weather. We were lucky at our first two competitive events of the year, the East Cork Hot Rod-run McNamara Motorsport Funsprint at Watergrasshill, and the non-championship opening meeting at Waterford Raceway, but the storms "Ciara" and "Dennis" that hit Ireland and the UK in quick succession in February caused two postponements of the re-opening of the Kilflynn Raceway in Co Kerry. On the bright side, both the Motorsport with Attitude and Race Retro shows enjoyed fine, if chilly, weather for their outdoor live action.

MARCH 2020 ....

The Kilflynn event finally went ahead with a good crowd to enjoy two days of rather wet and windy action - we'll hope that the Kerry track will soon see more regular racing again. Straight after our return from Kerry, all Irish Motorsport was put on hold. The Waterford Raceway practice day and championship round 1 on March 21/22 were the first meetings to be announced as postponed, but every other organiser in Ireland quickly followed suit. The UK ovals still had a very  busy weekend on 14/15 March, with the majority of both ORCi and independent tracks in action, although the weather was inevitably postponing the start of the Autograss season.  A day later the UK was following Ireland's example and all of our plans for the year, racing and otherwise, were put on pause ...
