Title: MKII Championship Brands Hatch Rd 2 19th April
Post by: Pike on 16 April 2008, 09:39
Hopefully Brands will be dry and we'll have a proper start to the season after the Snetterton washout. A full grid booked in with 1 reserve. Hopefully a trend that will stay for the rest of the season.
the closest I've been to brands is Toca 2 in a Volvo as we are a little time limted for testing due to other racing comitments
I'm looking forward to tackling paddock hill bend for real but there were one or two mishaps at the bottom of the hill last year

Thought i might ask this here as it might get a better viewing of the correct people

 Can i get a competitions licence without actually having a driving licence

i know T cars you only have to be 14 or so , same for SAXMAX run by the 750 motor club

 but im 25 on a drink driving ban so not sure how it would work

Stu:
Race & Road licences are completely different from eachother. I should imagine you'd be fine to get a National B licence as long as you do the ARDS test etc.

Car's currently sat in bits being prepared for 1st race in march, although i've got a trackday booked for 22nd Feb :)
