Cars tackle an uphill course one-by-one, with the quickest time dictating the winner. Competitors are given practice runs before the competition starts, before a minimum of two competitive runs, with the best time counting in the final results.

John is our Discipline Representative for Sprint and Hillclimbs.
He has been involved in historic navigational rallying, including 13 Tulip rallies and 2 le jogs, since 2003 and got into speed events when a close friend, David Gray ( sadly no longer with us), suggested he try Fintray in his Guilietta around 12 years ago. He was hooked by the end of the first day and has moved through saloons to single seater, but all in historics. John is vice chairman of HSSC.
