Evening all,
Just to give you all visibility of the 2018 provisional calendar as it stands, so pencil these in!
We have had many offers for Grids, but its important we do not add to the current fixture congestion. We have decided to keep things simple and really focus on getting maximum entries to these core events.
Our two main Triple-M racing events will be MGCC Brands and VSCC Cadwell. The Austins are seeking there own race so we have the VSCC Cadwell Grid to ourselves.
As ever, we welcome our international friends to both events!
21st/22nd April - VSCC Spring Start 28th/29th April - MGCC Brands Hatch - Triple-M Mary Harris Trophy Races 19th May - VSCC Oulton Park 24th June - VSCC Cadwell Park - Triple-M Challenge Race (MG Only) 6th/7th/8th July - Zandvoort Classic - Pre-War Sports Car Race 19th August - VSCC Mallory Park 23rd September - VSCC Snetterton - Intermarque Challenge Race
2017 has been a cracker, so I cant wait for 2018, I will update as soon as dates are confirmed.
Thanks
Mark

Greatly relieved to see no clash with Pre-War Prescott (Saturday 21st July), unlike the last couple of years. Let's hope these dates get inked! |

Triple-M Racing Update 29/11/17 Calendar Changes
The end of the season already feels like a long time ago, but since then we have been busy preparing for 2018!
We have a very exciting 2018 being planned, with events with both the MGCC and the VSCC. I feel it’s important that we continue to support both and re-pay their mighty efforts with some exciting Triple-M grids. Also giving all of you plenty of options to get out and race in 2018. All our races will accept international entries. Our highlights will provisionally include:
MGCC Brands Indy April 28th 29th Baynton Jones Historic Motorsport, Triple-M Mary Harris Trophy Races (2 * 20mins)
Donington Grand Prix VSCC June 24th MG Triple-M, Baynton Jones Historic Motorsport Challenge (15Mins) VSCC Intermarque Challenge Race – Team M.G. (15mins)
Donington National MGCC July 15th Triple-M Register Challenge Race (15Mins) (Pre-war / VSCC Invited)
Cadwell Park VSCC July 22nd Spero and Voiturette Race – Cars up to 1100cc targeting a strong MG Entry. (15mins)
Sponsorship This exciting calendar presents us with a growing challenge to organise competitors and host the social events which make our events so enjoyable. Not to mention help in covering the race timing costs. We are therefore delighted to announce that Baynton Jones Historic Motorsport will once again be the Title Sponsor for Triple-M race events at Brands Hatch and additionally at the VSCC Donington Meeting. Baynton Jones celebrated 40yrs of service in 2017, it was a pleasure to have Bob Jones with us to award the Mary Harris Trophy at Brands Hatch and it is fantastic to team up once again in 2018. Partners 2018 As per last year we are seeking partner sponsors for the season to complement our main sponsor. I’m very pleased to announce that we already have 9 fantastic partners signed up, a wonderful show of support for the season ahead. Including:
Andy King The MG Workshop Tom Hardman Ricketts Automotive Engineering TV One Gransden Finishing Touch VSCC Longstone Tyres
If you are interested in partnering Triple-M Racing, or know of anyone that might like to join us, please do let me know.
So A huge thank you on behalf of all the race community for this collective support from our Sponsor, Partners and Register. So, lots to look forward too, we will also be part of the MGCC Race Retro Stand in February, with Malc Hills KN Single seater.
If you have any questions do not hesitate to contact me.

The pre-war Sports Car Race that was scheduled for 6/7/8 July 2018 at Zandvoort ( see Mark Doltons first posting ) will not now take place. It clashed with Classic Le Mans , and it appears that a number of potential entrants for Zandvoort preffered to pay the 6,700 Euro entry fee at Le Mans. However , as Classic Le Mans is a bi-annual event , there is every chance of a return to Holland in 2019 . |

Looks like VSCC Mallory date may have changed to a week earlier Mark?

I was suprised to see the Goodwood Sprint on the 18th Aug considering the change from Goodwood to Rockingham earlier this year.

And it looks like Cadwell has shifted from 24th June to the Pre-War Prescott weekend. Pity. |

hopefully it's less of an issue this year Ian, as we are not holding an MG only race there. One of many reasons we decided to go with Donington instead.
