Just had a quick look at the GOME entry list, looks like its anyone's game now they have a couple of MX5's entered!

Not exactly a low production or specialist one off sports car.... dust off an old golf or 205 and apply, who know’s you may be allowed in provided its not fitted with a Bike engine of course….

Is your average BEC faster than a 5lt TVR? A VX220 turbo or Hicost's 450BHP Locost?

Does seem a bit unfair!

As usual it depends on how bendy the course is and how much of an opportunity there is to put the power down.

Around Mallory best to have a look at RGB lap times versus the rest

Hi Mark, the two Mazda MX5's are old pre-catalyst cars, so they are eligible. They were bought on ebay just to do the event.
