SAMSC Meeting June 2022 - Bruce Lyle elected Chair

Bruce Lyle was unanimously appointed as Chair of the Association on an interim basis until the next Annual General Meeting.

This is a key appointment for the Association as not only does it provide us with the leadership the Association needs at this time but Bruce will also, over the next few months, oversee the recruitment of a successor.

A successful and experienced former competitor himself, Bruce has held varied senior positions across Scottish motorsport over many years including representing Scotland on the Motor Sports Council.

The next round of the 2022 RALLYSCORE SAMSC Scottish Autotest Championship is at Lockerbie on Sat 16th and Sun. 17th July, the British / Scottish round is on Sat. and there is an additional Clubman event on Sun. 17th. This is an excellent event with great flowing tests and a fantastic venue, even if you are not competing it is worth a visit to spectate to see the very best of Britain's Autotesters and easy to access from the motorway.

2022 RALLYSCORE Scottish Autotest Championship - Date Change

The next round in the 2022 RALLYSCORE Scottish Autotest Championship was due to be the June Autotest held by Stonehaven & District Motor Club on Sun. 12th June, as they are having problems securing a venue we have decided to postpone the event until October, the date to be advised. The postponed event will now be the last round of the Championship and the overall awards may be presented at this event. The next round in the Championship will now be the Time Attack Autotest held by South of Scotland Car Club at Lockerbie on 16th July, this is also a British Autotest Championship round and if last years event was anything to go by, this will be a great event. There is a separate classification within the event for the Scottish Championship competitors and would be a fantastic experience for as many as possible. I believe the event is running over 2 days - Saturday is the Championship event and Sunday is an extra fun day, once I have more details I will notify everyone. Thanks Bill
