Bump.... Kemble is 4th June and it's looking like we will field two OV9 crews this year ! Anyone else interested ? All you need is a road-legal car (i.e. has tax, MOT & insurance) that you don't mind chucking about a bit and getting dirty. Oh, and no more than four cylinders, and not turbot unless it's a really small engine. MX5 or pretty much any small hatchback is good.

Edit - surface is lots of broken concrete. Not suitable for lowriders.

@Gavster @Sundayjumper @JonMad

I received an e-mail from MSUK this afternoon telling me I had not renewed my RS Clubman licence. I checked and I have - I did it before Christmas when I got the notification on 21 December and I had saved the electronic licence for 2023.

Wondering what was up I've logged in again today and was asked to tick a few extra boxes and it told me I'd renewed. Very odd. Not sure what that's about but it's worth logging in and checking your licence is still current because there seems to be some sort of glitch.

They've emailed again to say "oops, that was a cock up!".

I emailed them back before I saw this, then, yeah, got the same 'oops, please ignore' email.

Looking forward to Kemble - and meeting SJ for the first time in person. And we're in the same class it appears.

Looking forward to unleashing my RACE licence. I got some new glasses from Specsavers this week, so I should even be able to see any obstacles too 8-)

I don't think my car's moved since the autosolo in Abingdon.
