yes its on auto 66 website and is part of longton and district motor clubs speed series. its a hillclimb by the way. I was intending on doing it with
LDMC but Liverpool motor club are at Anglesey the same weekend so am doing that instead.
you need a non race national b race license first.which you apply for and you will receive a coby of the 'blue book' msa regs. you need to
read it through carefully as if you take your car in its current state.you will almost certainly fail scrutineering on the day. pm me if you need more

the only details I can find on the auto66 site is the date
unless you have to be a member of the club before you can enter and see the cost?
I don't fancy paying to be a member just to find out I cant afford it right now 
changing this as per the blue book is another issue I might have, im only home for a few days prior to the event so don't have much time!
are there any major changes I would need to do?

go to auto66.com then on left side of page event entries. half way down age it turns pink at olivers mount section,then you can download regs and
entry forms but you do need to be a member of an associated club.
I suggest you do the reseach,join a club,get your car and safety gear sorted then enter a sprint. bltyton are hosting a full weekend in july which
will be ace!

As said above Hillclimbs tend to be invite only so you need to be a member of one the relevant groups to be eligable to enter the race.
The subject was discused recently on a thread about someone wanting to do the ARDS race test.
This link will possibly help get you started with what you need for Hillclimbs.

now would be a good time to get safety gear sorted, license sorted, club membership sorted (usually around £10 and generally get £5-£10 off each event
if a member) then look at regs to make sure you and the car comply. then when your back your ready to go!
