Just got back from the first European Rally cross Round of 2012, it was epic!
Although there are fewer classes within the European Championship, than there are in the British they still provide you with a good day out and some extremely entertaining racing. The classes within the European are Super Cars, Super 1600's and Touring Cars - all of which have a large number of competitors and entertain the crowds with close racing and some pushing about, non of which is intentional however, as Rally cross is a non-contact sport.
Whilst at the European I had a think about what sort of class I'd like to move into next year (hopefully) and I came to the conclusion that joining the Super Modified Class within the British would be the most beneficial and open up a number of doors as this car could be built in a way which meant that I could also compete in some, if not all, of the European Rounds similar to the one from the weekend!
