I'm navigating over Epynt on may 5th so on a crash-diet Rich. no Mx5 content from me BUT lots of hillclimbing (did see an NA @ service area) but 34th o/a & 3rd in class (1401-1600cc) in a mk2 Escort with a 1599cc crossflow engine (that has a striking resemblance with a Cosworth Bda ) Rich.

Hi Rich. The driver told me it could have been an easy first …. If you’d laid of the buns.
Rich.

First event of the season for me yesterday, HCAAC sprint at Debden, near Stansted airport. In class A3 (up to 1600cc, 2WD, list 1A or 1B tyres) there was me, an NB 1.6 with ITBs, launch control etc, a Lotus Cortina and and Lancia Fulvia. We had a convoy run, then 1 practice, then 3 timed runs, and I was top of the timesheets in all of them except the 2nd time run where I had a spin. Ended up 4 seconds clear of the NB, though he had some engine trouble (suspected thrown rod) and dropped out after run 2. The Lotus Cortina was 16 seconds back, and the Lancia got (wrongly) dumped into the 'all comers' class and went home in a huff.
Was great to be back on the road and doing events, last time I drove it properly was October!!
