The Clubman returns to Eckington Civic Raceway for season 2!
That’s right, the fun close action series is back for another go. Starting in march it will follow the same format as before with a few small changes to the rules. We will also be bringing back the chocolate prizes.
The series is also sponsored by RD Models in chesterfield. They are a local fun and friendly model shop with plenty of spares and upgrades. The perfect supporter for the Clubman series. We highly recommend you drop by their shop to see what goodies they have in stock.
Although the series is only aimed at the Clubman-E class, the meetings will be open as usual to all the other classes and racers that visit the club. If you race another class or don't have a legal clubman car, please do not be put from visiting. Clubman-E just has the best numbers to make a championship work. This is meant to be an extension of the fun at Eckington, not a restriction.
To enter the series you will just need to have a legal car and BRCA license. You book into the rounds like a normal club meeting. Our meetings are limited to 25 entries so please make sure you book in advance.
