Festival of Speed 2023 - August bank holiday weekend 2023. A 3 day hillclimb 1 day at Mont Pinel St Ouen and two days at Greve de Lecq

These events are fairly unique as Jersey has the facility to close its public roads and both these events are on the roads.

Classic Marques Sports Car Club was inaugurated in 2014 specifically to provide an independent speed championship specifically for people with rear wheel drive sports cars.

The Classic Marques Speed Challenge operates an extremely effective algorithmic handicapping system which reduces the disparities of car performance to enable fair competition between cars of different powers. By levelling power, weight and tyres the championship enables the best drivers to prevail, as opposed to those who have the fastest cars.

CMSCC invites the drivers of the following sports car makes to take part:
AC, Alfa Romeo, Allard, Aston Martin, Austin Healey, Berkeley, BMW, Clan, Ferrari, Fiat, Gilbern, Ginetta, Honda, Jaguar, Lotus, Marcos, Mazda, MG, Morgan, Nissan, Porsche, Reliant, Renault, Sunbeam, Toyota, Triumph, and TVR.
*Note this list is a guide and there are other Marques not listed eligible for the Speed Challenge.

Formula G is the UK's hottest gymkhana race series and offers one of the most affordable routes in to competitive motorsport.

Gymkhana is a motorsport that requires drivers to skilfully navigate their cars around a series of obstacles including slaloms, 180 degree turns, 360 degree turns, figure-of-eight turns, or other obstacles using a combination of grip and slip to complete the course in the fastest time.

Gymkhana courses can be quite complex and memorising the course is essential to achieving a fast time. The sport is not judged, only your time counts, so also requires consistency and accuracy as well as technical ability. Drivers will be pitched against their competitors in head-to-head battles on mirror image tracks - to reach the top step of the podium, you must master both sides and survive the knock out rounds all the way to the final!

What do you need to compete in Formula G?

We have designed Formula G to be an inclusive event with a very low barrier to entry for all. As such, entry requirements are minimal. You will need:
- membership to Club Formula G;
- a drivers licence (although we can accommodate 14-17 year olds in certain circumstances, please contact us to find out more!);
- an MSUK RS Clubman licence (apply for free here);
- a helmet (E-marked);
- a fire extinguisher securely bolted in to the car; and
- a car!

Any car will do! We currently have two classes: 2WD, to include all RWD and FWD vehicles; and the AWD class. You could pretty much join in the action with whatever is on your driveway! Of course, your car will be checked over by the team to make sure the vehicle meets the minimum safety requirements to compete. You can read the full regulations here to find out which modifications are permitted, and which are not.

How do events work?

Drivers can enter events via the membership portal. Once your entry is accepted, you can start your preparations!

Upon arrival and signing on, you’ll be given race numbers and stickers (if you don’t already have these), the Formula G team will come and check over the car, and will then give you the green light to head to the drivers briefing.

Drivers are provided with track maps following the briefing, and it’s here that races are won and lost. You’ll have to study and learn both the left and right hand lane. Drivers will then be allowed to head onto the closed track and walk both layouts. It’s important to make mental notes as getting lost on the track will result in a DNF.

The morning session is dedicated to open practice - you can run as many times as you need to master the course.

After a break for lunch, it’s time to qualify for the battles. Each driver will get four runs - two on each side of the track - to set the fastest time they can. Reaction times don’t count here, but penalties do! Your fastest time of the four runs will determine your opponent in the knock-outs.

The top 16 drivers will then progress to the battles, and now the pressure is really on. Reaction times count now, and drivers will compete head to head before switching sides to set the fastest combined time. The winner will progress to the next round, and the loser is eliminated. 16 becomes 8, then 4, and then 2!

Once the winner has been determined, we then hold a short podium ceremony to hand out prizes. As well as the top 3 in each category, we also award prizes to the Fastest Novice and the Fastest Junior.

If you’d like to learn more, or fancy giving gymkhana a go, keep an eye on our Race Calendar for practice days and novice-only days. Alternatively, join the club to enjoy member discounts and be the first to hear about upcoming events.
