Maidstone Sports Cars first
foray into motor racing led to Class Honours and overall Championship
winner in the prestigious BCV8 Championship, running a standard
Class A MGB. MGF's are regular visitors to MSC's workshop and
our race involvement in the MGF Challenge is an ideal way to
promote the MGF aspect of the company.

Car History. MGF Cup.
Our MGF Cup car had undergone a total rebuild before competing
in four races during the year 2000.The car had benefited from
professional team backing and had been prepared to a superb
condition with money no object. MGF rules are very tight and
all cars are of the same specification with only 'set-ups' being
different. |

The driver of MSC's MGF Cup
car is Adrian Hall, our bodyshop manager, who has worked for
the company for four years. Adrian cut his teeth in Ford modified
saloons, having a modicum of success until lack of funds curtailed
his progress in 1997.His return to racing in 2000 was nothing
short of spectacular, starting off his debut season in MGB Class
A with a series of eight straight wins out of fourteen starts.
He was crowned Class A and Overall winner of the BCV8 Championship
at Cadwell Park in October 2000.

| Hopes for the Season. The
MGF Challenge is far more serious racing, with professional
teams and back up being much more competitive than 'Club' racing.
The cars are so similar that it is imperative to remain competitive
and stay on the pace. One error will take you from first to
last very quickly. Consistency will be the key to a successful
season. (See results page.) |

Maidstone Sports Cars is very proud of its impact on the world
of Motorsport during the last two years. Securing the prestigious
MGCC BC V8 Championship at the first attempt, preparing a Triumph
TR5 and a TR3A for a successful Monte Carlo Rally, and running
a MGF Cup car
Successfully in the MGF Challenge. Sensational. |
