SPRINTS

Events take place on a smooth sealed surface over a measured distance, against the clock  

Cars range from standard production saloons to single seaters, and are divided into classes by engine capacity and level of modification.

ADMC currently run four Sprint events at two different venues each year.  Each double header is held over two days, one in July at Grampian Kart Club, Boyndie Drome by Banff, and the second at Grampian Transport Museum, Alford in October.

 

HILLCLIMBS

Very similar to Sprints, but as the word implies these timed events run over an Up-hill course of varying, gradients and corners to test a driver's skill of control at speed.

Hillclimb dates can be found on the Scottish Sprinting website.  We have included a hillclimb in the ADMC Championship.
