Hill Climbing

Hi guys just woundered if anybody knows anything about the world of hillclimbing. Im interested in using my 1300xflow locost in some sort of competitive events. Where can I find out about hillclimb events, regulations, costs, locations etc?

Any help is much appreciated!

Forrestburn - the best little hillclimb track in the world (except Doune, obviously).

Thanks mate, I guess that place is in Scotland? Bit far! Anywhere in the Northwest (cheshire), or the Midlands would be ideal.

There is also a hillclimb at Harewood on Saturday and Sunday this week details here www.harewoodhill.co.uk. Not far from the North West, and a great venue which would welcome a 1300 locost.

Does anyone know the regulations to take part in Hillclimbing, are they as comprehensive as racing regulations?

Not as much needed as racing - have a look on the harewood website, link above, for the getting started and regulations pages.

But I think you will need a windscreen on a seven.

Get the regs book.

If your in the road going class, there'll only be a couple of things like cuttoff stickers etc..

P.S

Love Doune, my fav course to watch at least, although i like prescott and loton park as well.
