I thought the charm of The Pom was that no-one understood the rules?

I tried to read the rules once, but lost the will to live...

It's one of life's charming mysteries. If anyone understood it, it would cease to be so.

This year's (wet) event, while they were still finishing the modifications to the GP circuit:

The rules must be confusing if a Tatra qualifies for VSCC

I'm sure the rules used to say a 30/98 will win. Recently the answer has been to buy a Frazer Nash.
It helps if PBE (sometimes poster here) is driving. (Patrick's winning Owlet is in the picture).
Some try to get the cheapest 2 litre shed for a bit of fun.

Others say it is just an excuse for an extended track session, with the morning tests of braking, roofs and suitcases!

I'm sure the entry regs will explain the forumulae of brake pedal to rear axle and engine capacity!

I might have a go at this next year. I wanted to have a go this year, but things got in the way.

Used to go to The Pom with my dad in the sixties. Never understood the rules, but loved the action and the atmosphere.

I think the clue is the name of the trophy...

...or build one if you're PB-E.

Surely not!

The regs (SR) are now live on the VSCC site.
