Can someone help me please? Im entering my 2008 mac#1 into hillclimb and the MSA req proof that a min of 20x chassis were made in any 12 month period as its going into a road car class? I would really appreciate any help! Thanks john.

Good question, there used to be a MAC#1 owners club website with photos and details of all the members, but I can't find it anymore. Think someone on here used to manage it.......

Other than that I suggest a search of the MAC#1 section on this forum and most owners will have posted in there at some point.

Or does this locoster locations thread help? Most pins include the car make.

Just re-read your post, not sure if they would have ever made 20 chassis in 12 months period, but defo more than 20 overall.

I doubt you will find that evidence, first as I suspect DIY builds wont count, and I cant imagine Mac building 20 factory cars in one year.
Kit cars usualy end up in sports libre.

Thanks for the replys, they only need proof that they built 20x chassis in a 12 month period.

Sure someone said MK Sports cars now own/run Mac1?

Perhaps they will have access to previous years records

Try a poll on here for interest ?
Start with which year/decade did you buy your kit an narrow it down?

Spoke to mk today and they said there was nothing to buy out at mac#1 so they didn t bother.

It was just two of them in a small workshop. Can't see them doing that many cars. They took a month to fit my engine between them making go carts.

Car was there for 6 weeks and didn't see one new build.

Good luck with things I hope you can enter.

Mac#1 started up around 15+ years ago, they moved from Handsworth to Killamarsh in 2007, so they must have built more than 20 chassis in that time?????
They had a good rep around that time and very busy, I think they lost interest about 3 years ago.

Don't think that they built 20 chassis in a twelve month period, but I built 1x zetec, 1x GSXR, 1X ZX10R, and my son built 1XZX10R

Needs to be 20 in 12 months.

Is anyone actually asking for evidence? I would be surprised if anyone needs to see the data or even cares.
It's a road legal Seven-esque car, not some one off special, I doubt anyone will ask any questions about entering road going specialist production class (I assume this is what you are entering )
If in doubt I would enter it as a 'locost' which covers the whole family of small volume and home made 7esque kit cars.
