Mr Alan Brooke has kindly invited Team Neaves Racing to join a K Series only team in this years 4 Hour Race at Snetterton. Naturally Team Neaves are flattered and will be accepting gratiously.
Initially the idea was to try and make a team comprising one of each of the K Series engined cars in the Peter Best Championship, there are however a couple of gaps in the model range and hopefully enough people interested to get a couple of teams together.
Any K Series MG is welcome, no matter how big or small. If you’re interested then please leave a comment or use the contact section of the site and let us know!
Team Neaves
PS. There is a rumour that a ‘team talk’ will be held in the nearest pub on the saturday night before the race

Setting the scene
Since I started circuit racing back in the early 90’s I have always raced with the PBIC in its various forms. In the early days it took a while for me to get into the action but when I did it was fantastic. For me the lure has always been good close racing, the thrill of winning through good driving.
In the later years, as I’ve moved up the classes, I’ve found it near impossible to obtain the same performance as Midgets and V8 powered cars. Simply, you can’t get the power out of the B Series engine. Couple this with the spiralling costs in the pursuit of performance and begin to get more than frustrated. At the end of the 2007 season, we had seen the likes of Dan Ludlow in his VHPD Metro, mixing it at the front of the pack. This, as well as what we had read about the conversions lead to us hurriedly building the experimental K Series B. (more…)

I have been using Classic and Modern Engines for many years. Paul, the proprietor has always been most helpful and also always meets our impossible deadlines!
In the mid 90’s Paul worked on my B series engine. This year (2008) he has built my K series VHPD engine, it produces 191BHP and 149LB of torque, which is exactly what we expected. The engine has been faultless throughout the seasons racing in the PBIC Championship enabling me to take the Class C (fully modified) honours with some very close racing during the year! So many thanks Paul.
