I'm hoping to go racing next season in a appendix K Mk1 mini (being prepared this winter). I'm a big fan of Top Hat both as a spectator and in terms of the principles surrounding the spirit of the period that the organisors adhere to.
What I'm after is a contact or two who may be involved in the series (or any other similar series) who would be able to offer a bit of advice on what to expect, just to get me started... any help would be very much appreciated!
The car is being prepared to Appendix K using 1275 S as a base.
I have been racing my 1071 for a season now. I looked at Tin Top but my budget won't stretch that far, I hope you have very deep pockets!!!
I am planning on running in HSCC this year, its a lot more reasonable costs wise than Tin Top and they run an Apendix K class if you are determined to go that way.
Remember, the vast majority of club racing in the 60's was not run by appendix J or K regulations. Clubmans events were exactly that, most people could try whatever they fancied and they did not have to stick ridgedly to a set formula.
