DC has 30-35 cars showing interest so far which will make a good grid if the majority come through to race.
I believe the MGCC race committee want this to work, so they can promote the F/TF again as a race car at events, so watch this space.

I know the TF struggled somewhat in the MGCC Trophy series as it was near impossible to reduce the weight to get it low enough to weigh the same as the ZRs in the same class. I know one team even removing wires not needed from the loom to try and reduce weight!

A F / TF only race seris? I guess if the numbers are there it could happen :D

Yes its all done to participation and interest really...with various capacity differences and MPI,VVC,TF etc it would have to be a class catergory divided event.Which would need support of all variants to be interesting and successful..fingers crossed!!

I believe this race is now taking place on the Saturday at MG Live and not on the Sunday this now avoids a clash between the MGOC championship race on the Sunday (at another location) and our race at MG Live :thumbsu:

The trophies are off to the engravers and the stickers as below are being printed.

We could just do with a few more cars on the grid!

If you're going to enter please do so now! https://www.mgcc.co.uk/motorsport/wp-co ... s-EF-1.pdf
