It seems the Triple-M race isn't on the list of 'enterable' races on that on line thingie (yet). It is mentioned on the paper form though!

Cat,
I usually print the paper entry form, fill it in and then scan and e-mail it to the office.
The online entry will apparently show you who has already entered, once we learn how to enter that way. There is a PDF attached to the notificatin email from Steve Carr that shows how to use the system, but can't work out how to post it on the forum yet,


Regards
David D

Oh dear!! Unless I've completed misunderstood the entry form we are in with "50's iconic sports cars" . The major reason why there was no MMM race last year. Have the club not listened to any of the points we have aired(Fred in particular) after last years pantomime !!!!

It does read that way Oliver on the entry form but not on the above linked Club page, "pre-war and T Type" it says.

Mark, I hope so too!

I have e-mailed Steve Carr as follows:

Some alarm has been generated by the Regs/entry form for the above race http://www.mgcc.co.uk/motorsport/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2014/02/Silverstone-National-SRs-and-Entry-Form.pdf as it refers to ‘Iconic 50s Sports Cars’. That alarm can be seen at http://www.triple-mregister.org/forums/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=7562&whichpage=4

I am certain in my understanding that this race would not include such cars, so presume it is an error in the documentation? I certainly hope so, because it was the inclusion of these cars that resulted in the Triple-M racers walking away en masse from the MG Live race in 2013.

Could you please clarify, because a lot is riding on this, and I would hate all the hard work that the Club, Fred and others have put in to come to naught.

Thanks,

Dick

Just spoken to Steve Carr, and he said re the entry form, that that was his understanding, but he was going to get back to me this afternoon
Steve's phone number, that he is answering at the moment !! is 077790156801 I'm sure he would love to hear from those friendly MMM fraternity boys.

Pleased to repeat Dave Saunders' reply, just received:

It is an error as the race is only for MMM and T types only. The T types have called themselves Iconic 50s series but only T types or T specials such as Lester MGs can race in this race. Hope that clarifies the race so there should be no alarm amongst your MMM guys.


Plus of course VSCC is an invited Club.

The intent always was beam-axled cars and I believe/hope that this remains the situation.

Count you back in Oliver?

Regards
Dick
