Championship
I have joined 750MC to compete in the National Stock Hatch Championship. The season takes place between April and October at 10 different national circuits, see the full calendar here.
National Stock Hatch Description:
These regulations help to keep the cost of racing to an absolute minimum in comparison to other motorsport formulae.
Vehicle Type
‘Hatchbacks’, available for sale in the UK. Up to 1400cc multi-valve and up to 1600cc two-valve-per-cylinder. New in 2008 was the 1600cc 16v Citroen C2 VTS. There is a minimum weight including driver; the winning cars are ballasted.
Cars run in two classes – pre Jan 1992 (Class B) and post Jan 1992 (Class A).
Engine
The original engine may be rebored by up to + 0.5mm. No modifications are allowed. ‘Blue-printing’ is as far as you can go.
Suspension
Standard configuration and pick-up points; springs may be uprated and lowered. No ‘rose-joints’ or ‘rod-ends’; only single-adjustable dampers; standard anti-roll bars.
Brakes
Standard discs and drums, no cross-drilling or grooving; no ABS unless standard; friction material is free.
Transmission
Standard gearbox and ratios and final drive for the model must be used. No LSD or similar; no traction control.
Tyres
Control tyre is the Yokohama AO48R. Rim width and diameter must be standard for the model.
Rounds
There are 14 rounds in the season. Some will be ‘double-headers’ either on one day, or spread over a weekend.
Costs
Registration fee for the Season is £100.
750 Motor Club membership for 12 months is £50.00 including a joining fee.
