There's is normally a good 30-40 drivers at Hinckley's off-road club meeting on Saturday afternoons - there is a good mix of driver standards, racing is relaxed but competitive & everyone is friendly & helpfull.
I think they are only running for two more Saturday's this month before the D-Boots Weekender - best to check their website before setting off! Be warned that the grass track does get bumpy - but it rewards skillfull & consistant driving..... but as an old-skool racer you'll be more familiar with this surface compared to running on Astroturf.
I also run a Touring car at my local club in Kettering (& at Hinckley when they go indoors for the winter) Its a class that has suffered a decline in recent times - but it still enjoys a very strong following (especially at places like Ardent raceway)... we just don't go around shouting about it like the off-road boys
