Jonathan, short answer is No, , here is the ANICC 2019 calendar

http://www.anicc.org.uk/Resources/Docum ... lendar.pdf

The Targas are fun, very competitive over here, you have to drive hard to get into the first 30, you’d need a very pokey Beetle to be competitive, and Toyo R1Rs or the like. Not sure what the GB scene requires, not as many MX5s on any of the YuoTubes I’ve seen.
Cheers

Mike

Thanks Mike. We're unlikely to be competitive, but it could be something to keep me out of other mischief in the autumn and winter!
Pity there's nothing on, even the Rugby is in Dublin that weekend ……….. Might just have to be sociable with the relatives instead. :roll:

Have a great Christmas and New Year!

Someone posted a link to this video a few years ago & I keep going back to it - for me, probably the most beautiful car of all time ...

I found this to be very life affirming.
Some aviation content.
It held my attention to the end which is unusual for me.

The standard V6 Dino engine produces a fabulous noise but that V8 is even better !

The car was built by Kevin O'Rourke at Mototechnique -it's actually the second conversion as Kevin built the first for himself (there was a feature on it in Octane last year) ...
