Curborough - Sunday 6th November 10am

[Rob Hunter - Club Secretary]

A couple of us hardy souls are heading to Curborough tomorrow morning for a couple if hours to watch some of the Cannock and District Autosolo event.

 

We should be there between 930 and 10am, feel free to come along.

 

Spectators are free as normal 👍

A bit chilly and misty this morning when I left home....

 

 

After a lovely traffic free drive down to Curborough, I landed about 930 to find my mate James in his MEV Sonic7 had just landed. Its a lovely motor that James built himself, with a 2.0 Zetec and MTX75 gearbox... shorter and wider than a Westfield, it's an unusual but very quick little car.

 

 

I quite enjoy watching the Autosolo's, it's grass roots motorsport at its finest. The odd classic Mk1 Escort, Mini or Nova (I'm getting old calling my first car a "classic"! 🤦‍♂️) mixing with more modern cars of all types.

 

 

Those that know Curborough will attest to it having its own microclimate!

 

 

The fleeting glimpse of blue sky didn't keep the temperature much above 5 degrees, so despite us both being well wrapped up a hot brew and bacon sandwich didn't warm us up much! 

 

A fun couple of hours to scratch the car itch on a cold November morning!
