PHers, what are you looking forward to seeing in 2022?

•A mini Group C revival at the Donington historic
•The CTRC running a 4 round championship for supertourers
•Finally getting up to Doune to watch the BHC
•Craig Breen in a full time drive in WRC
• Rally legend/Rally Spain double header in October
•Going to another European hillclimb round
•Hopefully Oldtimer at ze ‘Ring/Zandvoort historic thrown in...

Think that’ll do for next year.

Over to you lot. What are your plans?

Going to try and do Rallye Legend, but it is looing bloody expensive, probly upwards of a grand, which is a pain.

The usual mix of events I can afford and that are not too far away, will try and get to Shelsley more this year, and I wish there was more on at Mallory, Donington is sure to be more common now aswelll, going to do British GT at Silverstone hopefully, maybe a few drags at Santa Pod, Blancpain (I dont care) at Brands again as that was good last year.

nothing big as prices are too dear for what is offered.

It’s rare to find someone else that does every round of the British! I’ve done it for the past 5-6 years now and got to know some great people!

Can’t see Wallace being beaten, and can see Scott finishing second now the car has had more development!

Be interesting to see how Sean gets on with that car being shared next year...

Should have known you’d moan about pricing hehe

I’d book somewhere ASAP for legend. Managed to get a hotel in San Marino for £395 which is pretty cheap when split into two! Don’t have to pay a penny until Oct.

Members Meeting Goodwood , Cadwell (my favourite circuit ) CSCC and HSCC , Silverstone Classic (3 days ) are the big events. Plus whatever is on at Croft (up the road from me ) when I'm not away somewhere better . Will take in their BTCC round although it's not my favourite series . CSCC at Anglesey and maybe Brands . Hillclimbs down the road at Harewood and I may venture down to Shelsley or Prescott.again

The odd day locally at Autograss and Drag racing at Melbourne .

And Fri & Sat at British GP - iit's nearly ten years since I saw modern F1 live and I am intrigued to see how quick the modern breed look at a circuit I know very well .

I find the pull of live motorsport irresistible but TV stuff is just telly .And we are blessed to have such a huge range of motorsport in the UK. What never ceases to amaze me is how few people actually go - except to BTCC and F1 . Give me a big field of FF1600 at a sunny Cadwell and I'm in heaven.

A good amount of rallies this year, some closed road, some of which are new. I'm working on;

East Riding Stages
Clacton & Tendring
Coast to Coast
Argyll
3 Shires
Trackrod Rally Yorkshire
Mull Rally

Unconfirmed yet, but I may be doing both the sprint and rally at Abingdon too.
