Wirral 100 Clubs 2022 Trip to Oulton Park - Put Those Entries In


The Club is delighted to announce that the 2022 Regulations & the entry forms for our Oulton Park meeting are now available in the Downloads section of the website. This year riders have the option of submitting their entry forms by post or by email to Helen Smith, our Race Secretary, or by using our new on-line booking system accessed again via the Downloads section of the website; as last year, entry fees are payable at the time of entering either by Bank Transfer or by cheque.

Please keep in mind the online system is still new to us and therefore treat us gently if you find any issues and report these to entries@wirral100.co.uk we think the online system worked ok for the first Anglesey meeting but let us know if you have had issues with the system.

There have been some changes to our Classes for 2022 and these are set out in the summary below.

WIRRAL HUNDRED’S SUNNY SEASON-OPENER AT ANGLESEY

The Wirral Hundred club is synonymous with early season race meetings at Anglesey and the meeting on 19 & 20th March saw dry, sunny but somewhat chilly conditions, only a handful of fallers, no serious stoppages, and some great racing. The only concern was the disappointing level of entries.

A Full report is available in the reports section of the site.

Rider numbers – there was no problem with the weather forecast or the weather, we had a full complement of highly efficient marshals and medics, there were no serious injuries, there was a decent crowd, the commentator was back to his noisy, excitable best, and virtually all the races ran their full distance of 10 or 12 laps. But – oh,dear! – where were the riders, why were the grids so sparse?

Surely we did not deserve such a low turn-out and such a resultant financial loss, a situation that is obviously unsustainable looking forward. Riders – please give us your support and spread the word, starting with Oulton Park next month!

GUEST CLASSES

ACU British F2 Sidecar Championships – For the 15th year we are again delighted to be hosting a round of the ACU British Formula 2 Sidecar championships at Anglesey, again in June.

FSRA Pre-Injection Sidecar Championships - for several years we have also been organising rounds of the popular FSRA Pre-injection Sidecar championships, which will run alongside the W100 Open Sidecar races and in 2022 we will be pleased to see them three times - at Oulton Park in April and at Anglesey in June and October.

GP Originals – For the third year, we will be hosting a round, the first of the season, of the GP Originals series at Oulton Park. This series is a big boost for post-classic enthusiasts and is for 2-stroke GP machines manufactured in the 1970’s and early 1980’s. Full details of the series, eligibility and the technical regulations are available at http://www.gporiginals.co.uk.

Lansdowne Trophy – after our plans last year were thwarted by the Covid lockdown in Wales, we are delighted for the first time to run a round of this prestigious nationwide series for thoroughbred single-cylinder racing machines of the late 1950’s & early 1960’s (Manx Nortons, G50 Matchlesses and the like). They will be with us in June. Full details of the series, eligibility and the technical regulations are available at http://www.lansdowneclassic.co.uk.

David Swallow Memorial Race – This race for single-cylinder classic bikes will again be run at the Oulton Park meeting in April. With the continuing support and encouragement of Bill Swallow and with no obvious classic bike date clashes this year, there is every prospect of a full grid.
