Have read Motoring News for years and live in Burnley so have heard of you.
Didn't you used to have that place in Earby set back off the road?only time I forget the name and it's now lol.
I have a 205 gti road rallycar,and something you may like my brother runs a Satria gti with quite a few Hockley bits on it(cage,bilsteins,90%LSD etc )
Always liked the Novas that are in!

I'm a fanatic rally fan, mate! I didn't compete (yet) but I worked in several teams as assistance :-D

I'm also playing a lot on special stages before the events. I also do track days, but rally is epic :thumbup: I'm not a Honda or JDM fan. I choose the CTR because is so much closer to a race car, a very very good base to prepare furher and very nice car to racing.

Not many then :sad:

I have not competed for a few years but I regularly attend rallies with 2 Group N Honda Civic Type R EP3 hire cars.

Do some night events/road rallies.Civic type r is eligable(basic rules are upto 4cyl non turbo).just need a £40 non race national b licence.They do use some rough roads sometimes though so not good if you are a clean freak!
Beware,it is addictive!!

Yes - in Sough between Kelbrook and Earby. I am in the centre of Barnoldswick now.

I am still a big fan of Novas. However, I am enjoying working with the EP3s.
