 The Ginetta Owners' Club Speed Championship was
launched in 1994 to bring owners together to contend a motor sport
championship specifically for Ginetta cars. In the UK speed is a broad
term to describe a type of racing where cars start separately at
intervals and race against the clock, a biker would call this type of
event a time trial or simply TT.
Two distinct disciplines come under the general term
'speed', hillclimbs and sprints. Hill climbs are held on twisty sealed
surface hill side roads, sprints run on race circuits and airfields.
What you need

Very little preparationis required for the 'Roadgoing' classes in which
your car must be road worthy (taxed, tested and insured) and may run on
any make of road legal tyre.
- A Competition Licence. Non-Race National 'B'.
- A Helmet and Race Overalls. To MSA Regulations.
Cost
- Registration Fee . . . . . . . £20 Covering the cost of admin, event bulletins and trophies.
