Entry for the 2014 Brighton National Speed Trials is still open and although the Regulations say that they close on the 16th August we will be accepting entries up until the day as we need to show the Brighton Green Council, who have made this year so difficult for us, how popular this event is.
Come and take part in the Historic motoring event on Saturday 6th September 2014.
To enter the event, please go to the Brighton & Hove Car Club website http://www.brightonandhovemotorclub.co.uk/
For more information on what you need to compete please see the Speed Trials on the Events tag

If you cannot compete this year why not come along as a spectator. We have a viewing area extending 70M past the start line this year and we will have a 21sqM LCD screen in the paddock so that you will be able to see the whole ΒΌ mile run

I think you'll find that those are excuse numbers 11d, 11k, 2 and 99 (from the authorized version).

11.81 sec fastest run, 127MPH terminal. Not too bad, won the class and 8th overall.

I beat the BAC Mono in my class, as well as a Caterham 620R driven by Scott Mansell, Aventedor Roadster, Ferrari F40 and another Sylva Phoenix with a cossie engine running 480BHP (!). Great day....
