For club level stuff you don't even need a license, prolly the best place to start.

Fake has won 2 out of the last 2 as Nick said... well chuffed. Carl, I'm setting PC11 after Easter, then I'll also be setting the summer scatter, so you'll be doing more events than me! Be good to see Fioner out on 11

WHen the tax/insurance runs out Fioner will be parked up for some work, so as long as its before then I'll try and bring her out.

Almost certainly will be out on the summar scatter. Probably in the mighty BX as it's a bit more comfortable and faster ;)

Join your local club, go along to one of their meetings and chat to a few people. The MSA website has a list of all the clubs around, from memory the best ones near South London are Sevenoaks (http://www.sevenoaksmotorclub.com/) and Borough 18 MC (http://www.b18motorsports.com/). The Association of South Eastern Motor Clubs (http://www.asemc.org.uk/) will also have more info on what goes on in the area.

When Nick reads this, get him to send over the nav for the 12car he made me do (granted that was one that I won, but only cos everyone else went OTL ;))
