Loved it, pain that it's another 12 months before I can do it again.

Car does sound phenominal. I have always liked the idea of doing a hill climb/sprint event. A neighbour of mine has a TR4 he takes to hill sprints and thoroughly enjoys it.
Is it a fairly cheap event to participate in? I take it compared to track racing its fairly risk/crash free too as you set off at intervals?

It was £20 for either a morning or afternoon session (which equated to 8 runs per session) so it was great value for money, although the runs weren't timed.

As the officials there say "This is not racing, it's just for fun", you are not even allowed to wear crash helmets, but being allowed to throw your car up a hillclimb is still epic fun.

Does look fun.
Wondering if i could do this in an auto? Unlike a full track these tend to have short straits so i guess i could just leave it in L, so it just uses 1st and 2nd.
