* VARIETY IS THE SPICE OF LIFE FOR LMA

 As mentioned above the LMA Euro Saloons Championship will be racing on Saturday at Donington, in round seven of fourteen championship rounds. The very essence of the championship is its variety and there will be a number of manufacturers and models taking to the grid including such diverse cars as a Vauxhall Nova, Lancia Kappa, Honda Integra and Porsche 911 Carrera 3. Going into the half way stage of the Championship John Hammersley leads the pack in both class A and overall in his Vauxhall Cavalier ST.

If you have a saloon racer locked away in a garage, itE28099s more than likely to be eligible and you would be very welcome. So for more information about this cost effective championship, which is also supported by Practical Performance Car magazine, log-on to www.lmaeurosaloons.co.uk or contact the championship co-ordinator Sara Pryce on 01234 217061 or This e-mail address is being protected from spam bots, you need JavaScript enabled to view it

* EAST ANGLIAN CENTRE REVIVES HISTORIC TROPHIES

 The East Anglian Centre are running their second Snetterton meeting of the season on the 24th June and have decided to use some of their historic trophies for some specific races this season. The Dunlop Tuscan Challenge race will be for the Archie Scott Brown Trophy which was originally donated by relatives of the great driver and was first presented in 1986. It has been used in the past for sportscar races including Porsches and TVR Tuscans.

The first of the BRSCC Formula Jedi Championship races will be for the Henry Rilett Trophy, which was donated by Henry himself when he was the Centre Chief Scrutineer. Henry was a great admirer of Formula Ford in the early days and particularly wanted to reward competitors who could not afford to compete in the major National Championships. With the agreement of HenryE28099s family, the East Anglian Centre has decided to present it for the Formula Jedi race as they felt this championship comes closest to his original concept

* EDWINA OVEREND TROPHY

 The Edwina Overend Trophy Formula Ford Challenge, in association with Everyman Driving Experiences, will take place at Mallory Park on Sunday 30th July. It will be a unique single race to determine the 2006 Edwina Overend Trophy Champion and only open to competitors in Formula Ford 1600 (Kent) race cars.

The occasion will commemorate the memory of Edwina Overend who was an enthusiastic and energetic supporter of motorsport, particularly at MalloryPark.

Start monies will be distributed evenly to all drivers who enter. There will be a limit of 24 cars for entry and the closing date is 17th July 2006.
