The next Vintage races at the Speed-Fanatics Motorsport Circuit are on the Sunday of the final SCCBC / CACC race weekend of the season - October 8th-9th. Registration is already open (here). We look forward to seeing you there! There is another big race event at the track before that however; the ICSCC ('Conference') weekend on September 17th-18th. There won't be any (our favourite - but we're biased!) Vintage races but there will be lots of exciting action. There will be many entrants from south of the border in addition to our local stars, with everybody after Conference championship points as the season draws to a close. You can find the latest entry list here. It promises to be great fun! See you at the track!
