The Vintage Sports-Car Club has seen some fantastic performances throughout our Speed Championship this year. Comprising of ten Sprint and Hill Climb events, the Speed Championship sees hundreds of competitors and their beautiful cars race at nine locations across the UK, starting at Curborough and ending the season at Rockingham.
Having completed seven rounds we are pleased to announce the current standings. In overall first place is David Furnell competing in his 1930 Austin 7 – The Toy. Second place is currently with Stuart Rose, in his Austin 7 Ulster – also made in 1930. Gary Clare is in third place with his 1928 Grannie. Current runners up include Graham Beckett, Jo Blakeney-Edwards, Geoff Smith, and Mark Purnell.
The next round will be held at Snetterton in Norfolk on a weekend of historic motorsport. Taking place over the busy weekend of 16/17 September will be the Snetterton Sprint, the Norfolk Tour, the LC&ES Autumn Weekend, the Snetterton Autosolo, and the unmissable final round of this year’s Formula Vintage. Be sure to attend as a competitor, marshal or spectator – it’s sure to be a weekend of family-friendly fun. The penultimate round will see a welcome return to Prescott for the Long Course.
