I entered into my local motor club grass autotest to learn better car control and have fun etc and won my class in both rounds :D

apperantly my little baby was perfect for the job, and tightining my handbrake up the night before helped a lot. I recommend this to eveyone if your local motorclub do anything simular

no doesnt really harm your car, thats why they do it on grass. The field that is being used this year hasnt been used before so is a little bumpy but give it a few goes and it'll sort itself out

why car is pretty much completly standard atm so copes well on the grass

you dont win any money or anything, just medals and bragging rights. It's not about prizes. Winners are invited to a dinner at the end of the season.

Good on ya for having a go! Used to compete in off-road motorsport, was good fun. Grass track stuff can be a bit tricky, especially if its damp or raining!

Defo can't used a lowered car on that type of event! :lol:
