The (Monoposto Racing Club ) is a single seater, open-wheeled motor racing club in the United Kingdom. Its members race a variety of single seater race cars ranging from 600cc (Jedi's ) to 2000cc Formula Three and Formula Renault cars. ''Monoposto'' is Italian for 'Single Seater'. As of 2010, it is the largest single seater championship in the UK, with over 60 regular race entrants. Production chassis's must be 3 or more years old (unless home designed and built) and utilise standard road specification iron block engines. It has several classes of cars: 1000, 1400, 1600, 1800, Classic2000, and 2000; these are based primarily on the maximum permitted engine size, but also engine tuning freedom, chassis age and chassis materials. Most race meetings have the six classes spread over two grids, with the 1000 and 1400 cars on one, and the 2000 and Classic2000 cars on another. The 1600 and 1800 classes are alternated between the two, either together or independently, depending on the circuit and expected entry numbers. Termed 'The Friendly Club', the Monoposto Racing Club encourages both novice and experienced drivers to take part - indeed, novice drivers are made especially welcome, and competitors are usually more than willing to lend a hand (or tools) in the paddock to make a repair or adjustment, or to simply give advice. This is summed up nicely in the (club profile ). The Championship visits most major UK race tracks, including Silverstone, Brands Hatch, Snetterton, Donington Park, Oulton Park, Castle Combe, Pembrey and Rockingham. It used to have a non-championship event at Spa-Francorchamps but dwindling entries meant this has been cancelled. For 2010 and 2011 the Monoposto Racing Club have arranged a non-championship race at Spa via a French race organiser, and the MRC is not financially involved. In addition, there are several other non championship events in 2010, at Mallory and on the Silverstone GP circuit. Points are scored for all finishers in their class order, with 15 for 1st place down to 1 for 12th are below. There is also a point for fastest lap in each class. The championship is decided from the best 10 scores from 14 or so rounds. Recent Monoposto Champions include Jim Blockley (5 times), (Jonathan Lewis ) (2 times), Mark Harrison (3 times, and also 2003 British Sprint Champion), Steve Cave, David Tilson, John Carding, Peter Bragg, Tristan Cliffe (3 times), Robin Dawe (3 times), Geoff Fern, Chris Woodhouse and David Parkinson ==Class Structure== 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Monoposto Racing Club」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
