This was the second IWE-REVS points event for 2024 for VRCBC members.   Thankfully, although the skies were mostly grey, it did stay dry, unlike our very wet first race weekend. The Vintage results are available on this website under Race Results (here) and the full weekend results are available on the SCCBC website (here) . Brent Martin took his usual great photos of the on-track action. You can see some of them below and the rest on his website (here).   Our Vintage races are part of full weekends of road racing organized by the Sports Car Club of BC (SCCBC) and sanctioned by the Confederation of Autosport Car Clubs (CACC). Check out the full season schedule on the SCCBC website Schedule page (here).  The next Vintage races will be on the Sunday of the SCCBC 'Dog Days of Racing' event during the July 20-21 weekend.  Registration is already open on MotorsportReg.com:

[caption id="attachment_17387" align="aligncenter" width="800"] Fan favourite Vintage racers Keith Robinson (1975 Van Diemen RF75 FFord) and Gayle Baird (1964 AD Mk111B Fox FVee) do their best impersonation of hydroplanes going into Turn 5 during Sunday's Open Wheel races. - Brent Martin photo[/caption] Posted: May 5, 2024 The VRCBC's 2024 Vintage racing season kicked off on Sunday, April 27th during the SCCBC's 'Spring Fling' weekend at the Speed-Fanatics Motorsport Circuit at Mission Raceway Park. This was the first IWE-REVS points event for 2024 for VRCBC members.   Road racers pride themselves on always racing in the rain, unlike some other forms of motorsport. But there was probably some (secret) questioning of that dedication by both racers and turnworkers this weekend; it was cold and it was wet; particularly on Saturday.   The results are available on the SCCBC website (here). Brent Martin braved the elements to take his usual great photos of the on-track action. You can see some of them below and the rest on his website (here).   Our Vintage races are part of full weekends of road racing organized by the Sports Car Club of BC (SCCBC) and sanctioned by the Confederation of Autosport Car Clubs (CACC). Check out the full season schedule on the SCCBC website Schedule page (here). There will be no Vintage races at the next event, the ICSCC ('Conference') weekend on May 25-26, but there will be lots of close racing.   The next Vintage races will be on the Sunday of the SCCBC 'Summer Classic' event during the June 22-23 weekend. (It HAS to be warmer!) Registration is already open on MotorsportReg.com:
  • Driver Registration for the 'Summer Classic' Race Weekend - June 22nd & June 23rd (here)
  • Volunteer and Crew Registration for the 'Summer Classic' Race Weekend - June 22nd & June 23rd (here)
  See you at the track!

Our Vintage races were just one part of a full weekend of road racing organized by the Sports Car Club of BC (SCCBC) and sanctioned by the Confederation of Autosport Car Clubs (CACC).  Thanks (as always) to Brent Martin for his photos (see below) of the action. They are available on Brent’s website (here), along with the many others he has taken over the years. Make sure to check them out and order at least one of yourself (or your favourite ‘hero’ driver if that’s not you) in action! The complete results for the weekend, including those for Vintage, are available on the SCCBC web site (here). The next Vintage races at the Speed-Fanatics Motorsport Circuit are the Club's British Columbia Historic Motor Races over the August 6th-7th weekend.

This was the third event of the VRCBC’s very own IWE-REVS points series for 2022. The Vintage races were just part of a full weekend of road racing organized by the Sports Car Club of BC (SCCBC) and sanctioned by the Confederation of Autosport Car Clubs (CACC). The weather was a little damp at times but not enough to bother the hardy Vintage racers! Thanks (as always) to Brent Martin for his photos (see below) of the action. These will soon be available on Brent’s website (here), along with the many others he has taken over the years. Make sure to check them out and order at least one of yourself (or your favourite ‘hero’ driver if that’s not you) in action! The complete results for the weekend, including those for Vintage, are available on the SCCBC web site (here). The next Vintage races at the Speed-Fanatics Motorsport Circuit are scheduled for the Sunday of the July 16-17 weekend. See you there!
