Like it says on the tin, this event will be a point to point time trial. However this is a marathon not a sprint as the course in mind is 89 miles long.

start / finish point and times will be given to those who enter the competition or diclosed at a later date along with rules.

£5 entry per car with no restrictions on passengers (except no more than five in a five seater etc lol)

Prizes :

  • 1st - £40 Plus MidnightRacing Gold Trophy
  • 2nd - £15 Plus MidnightRacing Silver Trophy
  • 3rd - £5 Plus MidnightRacing Bronze Trophy


Pm if you wish to enter your car or anyone you know who wishes to enter.

(Prize money will rise as more entries are made)

When you say its a Marathon and not a sprint, whats to stop me sprinting the full 89 miles ??

Looks like its going to be somit like this ?

Is first prize for the first person to finish in the fastest time ? if so then its not a marathon, its a race or sprint......

£40 is buttons mate, wont even cover my fuel for the day, you need some wagers put in place to beef it up a little.

Like the idea but needs some carefull considerations think

Sounds like a good idea but the price money suggested is a load of balls. Unless the trophies you get are actual gold,silver and bronze and not plastic.With MNR tho i can see it turnin into a spectator sport with millions of peeps lining the course near the start end points. The police arent goin to get onto that are they? think

An organised "rally", with prizes, even if not any sort of time trial, requires a permit issuing from the MSA (Motorsports Association) which are only organised through registered motor clubs.

Im guessing this is not through the MSA, and no permit has been issued, therefore all cars involved will be in very serious trouble if caught, not to mention what could happen to the organisers think

meesh, you do realise that if any one is killed on these event then the organisers are held responsible for man slaughter. Think about what you are doin.

Meesh, promoting the event is just as bad as organising it in the eyes of the law.

Not bein funny, but this thing sounds totally naff, theres no way anyone would wana enter that if u had a decent/nice car.

uv got every change of bein pulled over and gettin banned from drivin, or killin urself or someone else, id be suprised if there was a big turn out of people enterin to race, especially if its on public roads.

No thanks il give it a miss!

If there are gona be bets made, il put £5 on Barry in the Nova 1.4 SR (no offence to Nova drivers) with the wheel trim spinners to win cheers.

just shows the level of mentality of some cruisers now days. no wounder the police are the way they are. if it wasn t for complete bird brains like this, there would be little horrasment or police presence at events etc.
