Racing & Sprinting

The MUCCrakers will be back at "the island" in August, with 6 competitors already confirmed and paid up to contest the 6 hour Regularity Relay on August 30/31.

The ideal team size is 5 cars, in case one breaks down during the day. We need a minimum of 4 drivers in 3 cars to be eligible to compete.

This event is ALWAYS oversubscribed, so we need your entry now!

Before you ask, there are some rules on what types of cars can be run. If you car is too fast, it can't run. You also need at least a 4 point harness. You can use your road car if your car is road registered but NOT using racing slicks (see section 4.1.7 of the supplementary regulations). You do NOT need a full racing licence - which is a huge bonus!
More info and Supplementary Regulations are available at the event website.

21/4/08 UPDATE: This event is now oversubscribed, and we have only 1 team of 5 or 6 drivers entered (prioritised by the order in which funds got to Mike Seidler). It looks like the organisers are thinking of trying to extend the filed to 50 teams, but with 9 reserve teams already lining up, it's too late to submit more drivers for team 2, so it looks like some people will miss out on this hugely popular event.
