The sad news reaches us of the passing of John Kitson who was an MSA Steward for many years.
He was one of the MSUK Stewards who always walked the hills and spoke to all the marshals on post at the event and was very well thought of by all those who knew him over his many years as a Steward at Wiscombe and other venues.
His funeral which will be held in Plymouth.
We would like to pass on our condolences to his Family.

A Message from Roy Sims ASWMC Sprint and Hill Climb Coordinator:
As some will know at the latter end of the 2021 there were a few issues with scrutineering. Some of these issues were possibly caused by 2 seasons of self certification scrutineering, it certainly didn’t help. Just to help make sure that you read the correct part of Section S of the 2022 Motorsport UK Yearbook (Blue Book) I have detailed the section to read for each category and the classes in that category. Please prepare your car to the correct regulations.
Technical Regulations Read this first, section 10 page 355 (Blue Book). Then read the section below that applies to your category/class.
Standard Cars Are exactly that, they are standard cars with very little freedom for modification. Read section 11 on page 356 (Blue Book). The ASWMC only run this class for Junior competitors.
Road Cars Series Production and Road Cars Specialist Production ASWMC Classes A1 to A4 and B1 to B3. Read section 12 on page 357(Blue Book). Please remember that if it doesn’t say you can do it, you can’t.
Modified Cars Series Production and Modified Cars Specialist Production ASWMC classes C1 to C4. Please read section 13 on page357 (Blue Book). Please remember that if it doesn’t say you can do it, you can’t.
Sports Libre Cars. Classes D1, D2 and D3. Read section 14 page 358 (Blue Book). These are mainly about safety compliance. D3 Rally Cars to comply with Rally regulations.
Single Seater Racing Cars. Classes E1 to E4. Read section 15 page 358 (Blue Book). There are a few dimensions that need to be complied with, other wise it is safety compliance.
You can read the Motorsport UK Yearbook 2022 (Blue Book) online at www.motorsportuk.org or you can order a hard copy from Motorsport UK quoting your licence number.
