As suggested by Seabass in another thread and supported by me I guess. Whaddya think people ?
Is there enough interest ?
what would be our aims ?
As Gizmo suggested before, it would be very easy to organise some exclusive track days at kames. It's a sprint only track, but it was made for
locosts.
Or are we looking for evening meets or organised road runs ?
Or - a bit of all of the above ?
As they say in the best exam questions,
Discuss
Count me in.....a bit of everything sounds good..
if enough get involved a bit of competitive fun at kames?
maybe elsewhere too?
airfield track at crail?
a trip up north to golspie...a cracking track up there too...waaaaay up north tho...

Central scotland here we are meeting frequently at Knockhill top marque evenings are good value not many cars and a growing number of 7 owners including myself, will be going to cames once car is finished!
Couldn't see any mention of top marques on the Knockhill website.

That's what I get for looking at the wrong diary............
Sounds good count me in to.
A bit of everything would do me.
If anyone is interested, the lowlands speed championship has started again this year (to late to enter for this year so think about 2005). This runs
rounds at Kames, Forrestburn Hillclimb, and Knockhill. So no need to travel the 200+ miles to Golspie if you don't want to. (I will be, as
Colibriman says it is a cracking track)

by the way colibriman's right golspie is an ace track for locost style cars
the evo and mini's never stand a chance
they do sprints on some weekends
plus i only live 20 miles away
ecosse?
Ecosse, yes. Ecurie ecosse - Scotland's most famous racing team who famously won Le Mans in the 50s. Latterly in the 80s in Sportscar racing and on a local level at Ingliston in the 80s under the ownership of Hugh McCaig. Ecurie Ecosse means Team Scotland and I had thought of a play on those words - Ecurie Locost for the URl. See Here for a very brief history. I know most people probably know a lot of the Ecurie Ecosse story so I apologise if I'm going over old ground here.
The Ecurie Ecosse transporter with a Jag and Healey was at the Performance and Classic show at Ingliston last year. What a piece of kit...
Cheers
I understand the link for Ecurie Ecosse and Le Mans etc but I can't understand the link with a locost.
They both sound like french web sites. Can't you think of something Scottish without the french getting in on the act for free. I don't think there are any locosts or builders in France from reading various lists either. What about www.loscots.co.uk. or something like that? Almost an anagram there.
