    Enjoyed this onboard with Mark Higgins in SS6 Cwmbiga (Hafren) in the Triumph: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l5kiCKfuaC4

    Foolish spectators at 0:46... Proper spectator at 5:46!

    Great to see Appleby and Miggins are making proper progress with the TR7 V8 as gives us some non Escort relief. Along with the 131 we now need someone to take hold of the Chevette and possibly the Sunbeam Lotus and it will be 1980 all over again!

    Re the 1990s F2 cars, would there be many out there likely to be entered if allowed and what use have they had since their BRC heyday ?

    I know there's a F2 Nissan Sunny now in the BRC...

    Depends what era of F2 you are talking about. There certainly aren't many (if any) "original" Maxi era cars competing in the UK and the ex works cars if they are still alive will be worth too much on the collectors market or being used at demo events. Seeing as there hasnt been the predicted upswing in use of the earlier 4wd cars as yet I really cant see a mass rush to use scrabblers even if it represents one of my favourite instances of the BRC.

    A big reason for the lack of upswing is the insistence of very costly FIA papers …something which cat 1-3 don’t have to have in the UK …this insistence was for anything Cat4 and now Cat 5 until recently, so my 309 gti had to have £2k worth of Fia papers ! It’s recently been relaxed for cars below the 4x4 category but too late Imho.

    In regards the newer cars and cheaper to run stuff, I’m thinking gc8 Impreza you could probably build a nice Grp n legal one with papers for £30k ish done right, indeed there’s a lovely Evo 6 on eBay at £25k …problem with lots of 90’s cars though is they’ve been clubman fodder for so long they’re just destroyed.

    Cork 20 finale to the ITRC this coming weekend. Quite a battle should be on the cards...

    Also Josh McErlean in a Fabia RS and Mez Evans in the GR Yaris add to the interest.
