Last Sunday was the finals of the MC Motorsport driving comp series. Mine was the only FTO in a field comprised of Lotus Elise, Skylines, Porsches, WRX (30 of the bloody things - they're like flies at a barbecue) and the odd Clubman and EVO VIII.

Six tight, rain-soaked courses later, and I'd claimed 7th place out of a field of 74!

That's by far the best result I've ever managed in the two years or so I've been competing... and don't it feel good!!! Very Happy

Some more details up on the Motorsport page - https://ftowa.allanson.org/html/motorsport/motorsport.html, including a full Finals event timesheet.

Now, it's off to find any FTO-related forum I haven't posted on yet! Gotta get 'em all... Very Happy

Hey Rich,

Well done in the compo. Do you know of anywhere in the UK that does this kind of competition? There's nothing I'd like better than putting my RX-8 through it's paces, in relative safety Smile

Sean! Great to hear from you mate! When's the little one due?

I did a bit of UK Googling for ya, trying different terms. Looks like the UK clubs call it Autocross, like the US.

Try this, for one...

Talk to them... You should be able to go from there.
