Hankook V12 EVO's 215/40/17 Fronts and 245/35/17 Rears although i'd love to fit a set of 888's but at nearly a grand for 4 that won't be happening anytime soon

how much does it cost to do it and are there any regs for the cars?
The entry free for each round is £97 but you have to be a member of the BOC which another £65 yearly plus you need to have a Nat B licence which is £38.

You require a Helmet to Snell Standard 2000, 2005 or 2010 and Nomex race suit, gloves and boots which conform to FIA standard 8856-2000
Helmet was £150
Suit was £280
Gloves was £50
Boots was £150

I looked at doing a local event in the Ka(if i ever get it finished ) but due to the slight alteration to the bulkhead I'll be in 'Sports Libre' against single seaters with V8s
Ye it was pretty terrifying in the wet
There are some really quick cars in Sports Libre a couple of ex Group B Audi SWB's and Mike Mannings crazy 4x4 Cossie Puma
