too true - top marks for getting out the chris! real shame no imps all year

When I got home I honestly thought i'd come last (didnt bother looking at the board when I was there due to the aborted first run and poor driving in the second.) but seeing the results now i'm much happier, came 3rd from last =p More to the point in my last run when I'd gotten used to the format a...

finished depsite snapping and having to repalce his throttle cable - did one round on 1/2 throttle!

also for lots of local non HSA speed events to look out for.

some solo's coming up in southsea and oxford....

A solo ate North Weald - near Sevenoaks - 27th July: Si Have you got the regs and entry form for this? Any idea if it's a BTRDA one? Looked on the Sevenoaks website but couldn't see anything. Will email the events sec there or something if you haven't frank keep an eye on~: http://forum.fdmc.org.uk...

The MOT on the Singer is up two days before and it has a big hole in the floor as a result of using a trolley jack to change a wheel after a puncture on a trial. I wasn't expecting it to go through the floor :shock: ... I am going to try to get it fixed in time, whether I'll also be able to get all...

Solo at Western Supermare - great course very fast 3rd August

http://www.bristolmc.org.uk/

nice to see some impers (in imps Mark

)

just did the first Southsea motorclub solo...

very tight couse and got 7th overall, event won by a mini - the course would of been great for an imp!

Hi guys, I am very interested in the whole post and joining in with one of my cars. My Stiletto is awaiting 930 and discs and my time to get it back together. Where is the next event? I would love to come and watch and hopefully join the club. Will make me pull finger out and get car done. Any info...

Are there any entries left for FDMC still? I know there were last time I asked, but I still don't know if I'm actually going to be back in Essex that weekend Hope I'm not blacklisted either.... got a call today, apparently my cheque from the last one bounced! Oops! get the app in asap (doubt there ...

just done two more.. CSMA at hatfield and Cotswold Motorclub at Finmere Airfield.. some imps in the first (go benoys and frank - no sign of any at the later.. FDMC solo on the 4th may - also no imps entered so far... whats stopping you? if you can't afford sprints and hillclimbs - do these, great va...

My biggest concerns are the donuts (as they are fairly tired) and the (do)nut behind the wheel. you should be fine if theta re in (and the bolts) are in good nick - unlike autotest there is no transition from fwds to reverse etc etc... if yours are kancked might be time to fit new ones they are gre...

bump,

seasons autosolo coming up - cheap to enter £20-30 per event, no need for overalls, helmet etc and great fun..

no need for a modified car either

may well miss this one myself - but not excuse for other impers to give it a go..

Nice little vid:

I was in the MGB that day

Me thinks you'd have first place if you'd done them all in the Clan (clutch probs wasn't it?) Peter YER i HAD A LEAD OF 50SECS! BUT THE mgb was fun and I still managed a class win in it. Just grateful to the owner fo letting me double drive it so I could complete the championship. the cone clipping...

wow just got pipped yesterday by a scooby doo for FTD on the Oxford Motor Club autosolo.. if I had not clipped a cone on one of my runs I would of had FTD! though I suppose the excursion through a wheat field did not help matters when the rain made a grippy bit, slippy! great fun though - no imps pr...

autosolo on sunday, but looking to do some sprints got one in september

Eric,

what is the next event you are doing?

Si

got any entry to the Oxford motorclub solo this sunday... looks like the only imp engined car again...

can't believe so few impers fancy giving this form of motorsport ago..

Si

where is harewood?

well did not get the clan fixed in time for yesterdays solo at Bordon, annoying as I was leading the FDMC championship...

BUT a kindly chap let me double drive his MGB - great fun and very different from a clan..

there is a solo coming up on the 15th nr oxford - we going to see any imps there?

Si

I'd enter one but the Chamois is not running right now, money is tight and I need to learn the car too. I've only done 250 touring miles in it. But soon... :D IM 8) money tight! £240 on a clutch! just get a new centre plate, save your cash and use the car plus no need to learn the car as you only w...

on the whole autosolo seems to be sdoing well, FDMC should have an extra one this year at Dunsfold aerodrome.. just a shame not to see more imps out there - especially as I think they could do well... if I persuaded FDMC to list the Imp Club as an invited club for an event, would that help? seeing a...

well I must say shame there are so few people willing to give these cheap motorsport days ago... they are available across the country...

well I suppose talking about power and speed and polishing is less hassle

Si

anyone entered the Solo are Abingdon Airfield this saturday coming?

Monkeys & Hartlepool :lol: :shock: That'll be wasted on the Southerners then Les :wink: Peter explained a book by Stuart Marconie 'In search of the north' - quite a good read if you are looking for a book to read so aprt from monkeys - anyone going to give these event ago? Abingdon on the 9th June ...

Doesn't seem to happen in North Yorkshire... ..plenty of rallies maybe, but a totally differen't level of preparation is needed for that.. Peter http://www.bdmc.org.uk/larkspeed/2007/ - not north yorks I know but apparent hartlepool DMC run some Airedale and Pennie club ran some last year - website...

Ok, reckon quite a few impers could easily get to Abingdon.. there is an AutoSolo taking place as part of the Abingdon CARnival on the 9th June 2007... get out there an compete - reckon imps could do really well.

that guy (Simon) spent all day on three wheels!

risk of rolling is very low - more of an issue for the taller front drive hatches
