In between Ice Ages, there is at least one glorious sunny weekend at Forrestburn, and it happened in August 2022 !!
A very good number of XBC Competitors in attendance, and much discussion of the subtle difference between bollard kissing and bollard whacking, both of which seemed to be new found hobbies for the anonymous few, for whom the track now seems a little longer.
It was good to see Peter Locke’s re-shelled RX8 in action. Although sadly he didn’t get to compete in this car, he was keen that the car should be seen out at events in order to raise awareness of, and hopefully some cash for, Prostate Scotland. In remembrance of Peter, if you wish, you can do your bit using the following link, or QR code.

August also brought two events over one weekend down south, with the Saturday Aintree providing TEN TIMED RUNS !! Three Sisters wasn’t that far behind with EIGHT TIMED RUNS, so if ever you were in doubt as to the “value for money” element of a weekend trip to these events, on two very different circuits, hesitate no more !!
The XBC Web Site has been updated with all of the Results and Scoring for August, all to be found on the 2022 Events Page.
It is also time to get your entries in for our very own Event, the XBC October Kames Weekend. Use the above link to get you started. If you have any (entry related !!) problems, please don’t hesitate to get in touch by email, or via the contact page on the Web Site.
We are also holding an XBC “Track Day” on Friday 30/09/2022, the day before our Sprint Weekend. If you are interested in a place you should first ensure that you are entered for the Sprint Weekend, and then contact Ronnie by email or via the Web Site at the earliest opportunity, as the number of cars on Friday will be limited in order to ensure value.
In the meantime, it seems that a very significant number of XBC Competitors will be at Harewood, and we look forward to seeing you there.
