Toyota Sprint Series 2009 - interested in entering?

Post by Tomiam »

Just an FYI for everyone on here.
The Toyota Sprint Series is gathering names of interested people who wish to come along and enter (1 event or all) for some cheap fun motorsport.
Its a sprint race, ie: Cars attempt to finish a predefined course in as short a time as possible. Each run lasts between 1min (short course) to 3min (long course).
Its not really possible to get car to car contact as cars start roughly 30 seconds apart. Your car must be a Toyota (not a problem for us), and everything from standard road going to highly tuned cars will be there.
Everyone competes in their own class, so you wont be up against a turbocharger 500bhp monster, unless of course you own one too :)

Ive competed in all events for 2008 and found them to be a LOT of fun :D

The thread thats linked above is simply a list of names of people who are interested in entering the 2009 Toyota Sprint Series.
Best place to get updates is to visit the TSS website on a regular basis.

List of interested people is definately getting bigger now! :D

It is ok to not do all of the events, is it? I assume I needs to get an ARDS licence?

Yes you can do as many or few events as you want although less than 5 will mean you don't qualify for the championship.

ARDS licence is not necessary, however the organisers insurance requires you to have an IOPD licence. Last year this was £15 for the year or £5 per event. It is literally just a payment and you get the licence, no tests involved. You can buy it at sign on.

That's great about the licence. I have a helmet and a car, do I need anything else, eg a medical? fireproof anything, fire extinguisher etc?
