My Civic Race car

[StuyMac]

Been lurcking round for a while, but finally got round to registering and thought Id introduce myself, and the Honda Civic that Im currently racing the the Classic Touring Car Series.

Over the years Ive always been into my Nissans - mainly 200SX's with the Odd Skyline, and I sprinted a 200 a few years back.

Since then a few firends got my in to having a pop at racing so I bought myself an Imported 1992 Civic VTi

Its still road legal, and pretty std for the time being.

Stuy - that looks quite fun!

do you know what the race series regs are please, I'm interested to see what cars are eligable!

[StuyMac]

Everything you need should be here

Im in the Pre93's which use the Toyo 888s as the control tyre, and cars are pretty std.

For something a little more modified, try the CMS - Classic Modified Saloons

Good stuff looks ace - lovign the SD1's and is that an ex-TWR V12 Jag I spy...?

[Andy_sx]

Stuy, Many thanks for that, has deffinately given me some food for thought, and alot f daft ideas too!

now, just to find a southern championship and alls good! (well, bar me not having a race car, tow car or a job... lol) one can dream eh

[benny.c]

My mate has run his Mk2 Golf in the Pre 93s a few times.

Did Cadwell last year and Combe this year.

Cheers for for comments peeps

The pics are from Croft, Mallory, Oulton, and my drive lol

The Civic is actually more fun than the 6, but the 6 never fails to impress with just how quick it can get round and out of a corner, all-be-it a little unentertaining.

I also have a 330d Tourer which is my everyday car, and makes a very good tow car for the Honda.

Not too sure about the Jag, only seen him a couple of times this year, though I think it is just an ex road car, not an ex-TWR. In another championship in the CTCRC series, I belive there is an ex works V12 Jag - one of the 4 door saloon jobbies - sorry cant remeber the model name, and a couple of the SD1's are also ex works cars.
Yeah, Im on the Wirral - Saughall Massie. Theres a few of us doing this series, all very local. In the Mallory paddock pic, the CRX guy is from Wallasey, the other Civic lives in Upton, plus there are a couple of others not in the pic (A Starion, M3 and XR2) who are also Wirral based....

Its a very addictive sport, and probably more expensive than drugs lol

[Jeffmaniac]

depends what drugs maybe? how much does it cost you to race in a series like that? id love to get an old car and track it but would loveto know about costs and conditions.

[rsstman]

ok i lookes at the website £170 for a race £300 for a novice licence and then a few hundred quid for driver suit and helmet etc.... but i dont see anywhere with the minimum requirements for the car.

is it just a case of rollcage, fire extinguisher, and toyo tyres?

thanks

Pre93 requires pretty std cars, CMS allows you to do a little more
