The Historic Sporting Trial Association has been formed to provide suitable events for sporting trial cars built between 1952 and 1974. Do you have, or know somebody with, an old Cannon, Alexis, Dellow or other trials special built to the old RAC National Trials Formula or 750 Motor Club rules. Our aim is to run a class for cars from the 1952 to 1970 era that are still in period specification and running period engines such as the 1172 Ford sidevalve and BMC A series. We propose to have a separate class for cars built between 1971 and 1974 running on 15" wheels. We are looking to hear from anybody that would have an interest in these events. At this stage, even if you do not have a car or if your car is not ready please don't hesitate to contact us:

Martyn Halliday Tel 01403 250967 or Mobile 07739 464170

Ian Wright Tel 01732 529511
