Welcome to the re-launch of Autograss Review's online magazine - or rather magazines as, to acknowledge the fact that we're increasingly covering more than just NASA Autograss, we intend to split our content between two titles, Autograss Review and the new Grass Roots Racer.

We're still hoping to re-launch the printed magazine at some stage in the future - so thanks to our loyal subscribers and advertisers in waiting for this to happen. But as our current workload means that this won't be in the near future, we'll concentrate for a while on bringing our online coverage up to date.

As "news" stories tend to appear very quickly these days on social media, and then disappear just as quickly, we'll be concentrating on coverage of individual race meetings, and we'll continue to give priority to the smaller club events that other media usually overlook. Our photo galleries from events we attend will be combined with more detailed reports and reviews - click on the photos below for full coverage from each event. We'll be aiming to clear the backlog from the 2015 season as quickly as possible, so please bear with us.

Initially it will be just our own coverage, but if any other budding reporters and photographers are interested in contributing content from your own local clubs or promotions, we'd be interested to hear from you.


Latest News

 .... UPDATED SATURDAY 25 NOVEMBER 2017

Please always "refresh" to see the latest version of this page

Apologies for the lack of updates over the past few months - yet again pressure of work has been resulting in all our time disappearing between race weekends. But we'll do our best ....

COMING UP ..... DECEMBER 5th & 12th .... We're down to the last two scheduled events of our 2017 "grassroots" racing season. December 5th sees the last running of the annual Westcountry Videos Open at STANDLAKE ARENA, an event that tradiionally sees a few autograss cars joining in with the Standlake regulars (no special permission needed!). A week later on December 12th, ANGMERING OVAL RACEWAY stages another of its regular winter season events.

Also look forward to:

CHRISTMAS/NEW YEAR EVENTS .... WATERFORD RACEWAY will stage their annual St Stephen's Day event featuring all the Hot Rod classes as well as the annual Destruction Derby ... TRENT AUTOGRASS are proposing a repeat of last year's successful "Cold Turkey" meeting, the suugested date being 30 December .... The 2018 season kicks off on New Year's Day with the DONAL O'BRIEN MALLOW FUNSPRINT in association with McNamara Motorsport, at Watergrasshill, Cork .... Back in the UK ANGMERING RACEWAY also have a New Year's Day event.

LOOKING BACK .....

FULL REPORTS, RESULTS AND PHOTO GALLERIES


TRAGIC END TO 2016

We received the worst possible news just after Christmas when an accident during a Ladies' race at the St Stephen's Day meeting at the Waterford Raceway claimed the life of the club's devoted and universally loved secretary, Mairead D'Arcy.

Mairead was rightly regarded as the heart and soul of the Waterford Raceway (better known to Irish racers as "The Pike") and her personality and dedication to her local racers played a major part in making The Pike such a special and enjoyable place to go racing. When we paid an unannounced visit to The Pike in the summer we experienced at first hand how Mairead's smiling, welcoming and helpful presence made such a difference to every racer's and visitor's day at this historic track.

Having been brought up in a family who had all made a massive contribution over the years to the Waterford Raceway, Mairead loved her racing and was known for her ability to get into a great variety of cars and get the best out of them, whether in ladies' races or competing against the men. In November she'd raced for the first time at the Tipperary Raceway (Rosegreen) and came away a winner.

However, it's not just the racing world that will feel Mairead's loss. As a devoted early years teacher, she'd recently realised a dream with the very successful opening of her own school, "Maud's Little Learners" in her home village of Stradbally, Co Waterford.

To the D'Arcy family, the racers and supporters at Waterford Raceway, to everyone on the Irish racing scene who'd been touched by Mairead's influence, and to all in her local community, we offer our heartfelt condolences.

RIP Mairead

Where has the magazine gone?

Thanks to everyone who's enquired after the magazine since our last printed issue, no 190, came out in August 2012. Thanks also to our subscribers and advertisers for your patience. 

 

We haven't given up on it, but our current workload, both in Autograss and in the "real world" isn't allowing us time at present to make firm plans to re-launch the mag.

 

We hope eventually to clear the decks of enough other work to allow the Review to make a comeback. Obviously the magazine world has changed in the 25 years since we first launched the Review, so we'll welcome your views on what you want and expect from a grass roots racing (maybe not just Autograss!) magazine in future ....
