Sprinting is a discipline of motor sport where you can turn up with the family saloon, don an approved crash helmet and explore the performance limits of your car. It is at the grass roots of motor sport, where club member and aspiring champions alike ply their trade. Of course, not everybody uses their everyday car, so to establish parity, different classes, defined by the type of vehicle and engine size, can be entered.
The basic class is in fact standard production road going – where you can turn up with your road car and compete . The other classes include kit cars and replicas, electric vehicles (EV’s), modified saloons through to single seat racing cars.
The essence of sprinting is driver ability and car control whilst getting the best out of your vehicle. Cars start singly and compete on a tarmac surface tracks against the clock. Whilst this removes the potential for collision damage often sustained in wheel-to-wheel racing, it does not detract from the euphoria of speed for speed’s sake.

This is another way to become involved in the sport, to smell the oil and rubber and hear the squeal of tyres at close hand.
We would like to thank all our ever enthusiastic marshals for their constant attention.
Marshals are responsible for the safety of competitors. They are stationed at various points around race tracks to be on hand and report any accidents or track problems.
Without our marshalling volunteers standing post none of our events can go ahead.
Our marshalling co-ordinator will be happy to welcome you to the team.
