FDMC
and ACSMC
Championships

Richard Bailey

FDMC runs two established annual championships, plus our Solo Challenge, introduced in 2007. Some members drive specially prepared cars, others use standard models, but depending on skill and cunning, you can do well with either! Our regional motorsport association, the Association of Central Southern Motor Clubs (ACSMC) also runs championships, based on its member clubs' events, for most types of motor sport.

FDMC Chairman's Trophy Championship

Here, you can score points from any events of National 'B' status or above, provided you enter as FDMC, up to your 8 best results in the year. If you compete mostly at regional or national level, this is where your performances can count.

2008: Early scores and positions
The scores at the end of March show which members, so far, have been dusting off their crash helmets and heading for the startline. First into the lead is Matt Carter, on 30 points, following three sprint class wins in his Honda S2000. Next are Peter Egerton (22 points), Ken Martin (20), Dave Penycate and Rob Farley (both with 19), and Andrew Thompson and David Buttle (both with 18), followed by another 35 members.

Full current scores are here, Scores.xls, plus full details of the Rules.

FDMC Lloyd Roberts Championship

This is based on the events which the club itself organises, or co organises, through the year. Scores are from any combination of competing, marshalling, or organising - but must include at least two of these.

2006: Final positions
From 13 qualifying events, a healthy total of 130 members scored points, and the clear winner is Dave Penycate, whose 63 points include scores from organising, marshalling and competing; followed by Simon May (44), Carla Penycate (38), Paul Prescott and Carl Streatfield (both on 33), and George Wall (30).

Full final scores are here, Scores.xls, plus full details of the Rules.

The Solo Challenge is our club level AutoSolo championship, based on the three events in our calendar. The Solo Challenge page has the details, plus final results for our 2007 Challenge.
