Gallery: Britain's favourite garaged classics 8 Apr 2013 (News)
And with that in mind, we take a look at the classic cars most likely to be registered, but declared off-road on a Statutory Off Road Notificaton (SORN) by their owners. Enjoy our run down of Britain's top 20 garage ornaments. We'll quote two figures: 'always SORN'd', which means the number of cars that don't see a tax disc at all, and the 'seasonally SORN'd', which quotes how many cars get a tax disc at some time during the year... this list makes fascinating reading.

'Run What Ya Brung' Drag Racing Beginners Day at Santa Pod 3 Dec 2012 (News)
Bracket racing places emphasis on the consistency of the driver and car rather than on raw speed, which in turn makes victory much less dependent on large infusions of money, and more dependent on mechanical and driving skill, such as reaction times, shifting abilities, and ability to control the car. In each qualifying session you predict the time your car will run, the dial-in time. So, for example racer 'A' dials 15sec and racer 'B' dials 13sec. If racer 'A' runs 15.1 and racer 'B' runs 13.2 then racer 'A' qualifies higher because he/she was closer to their dial-in.
