Sprints
What's it all about?
We are fortunate enough to have the support of the "Official" tvr contingent of the Speed Championships here on the tvrmonster, and they have prepared a full introduction for us to put on our pages. But what's a Sprint about? Why are they becoming so popular?
Well, we would like you to go along and find out. If not to compete, then to watch, have fun and support grassroots tvr Motorsport at its very best. Steve Cox (and his team) has steadily built up the ranks of the Sprinters over the last few years and they now have around 60 competitors entering Sprints all over the UK. Some are ex-trackday guys and some ex-racers but many are Rookies taking their first steps in competitive Motorsport.
And there lies the secret! For a few hundred pounds, you can get suited and booted, put a homemade marker plate on the front of your tvr, and with a bit of paperwork under your belt, Steve and the guys can have out there in competition in a friendly, low risk, low wear and LOW COST motorsport.
Checkout Steve's article, and then why not pop along to the next event in your area? There's bound to be one fairly close to you and I'm sure you'll find a warm welcome.
We intend to enter the "Monster Griff" in a round of the Championship next year, so that we can write first hand about how to get involved and what its like, but for the moment watch out for updates from the rounds from Steve and the guys (and girls!).
