At this time of year, Brooklands is a good choice for a motoring day out as you can dive into the cafe if the weather is cold or wet. Let’s meet at the ticket office entrance at 10am, when the VSCC action starts.

Please email John Coward, secretary@the289register.com if you are coming.

Please note this a pre-war event and more recent cars must park in the public car park.

Some 60 pre-war cars will tackle a dozen different tests around complicated courses laid out around the historic Brooklands site including Test Hill and Members Banking, with drivers competing against the clock while trying to avoid any penalty-attracting mistakes.

As with all VSCC events, the competition will boast an eclectic mix of pre-war cars. The competition will be rife throughout the field with many drivers returning looking to hold on to previous titles while new competitors will be eager to make a name for themselves. Tests will run throughout the day, starting from 10am, with a break for lunch.
