Impish Adventures Alex & Jenny's adventures in speed hill climbing and sprinting with our 1968 Hillman Imp Super.

15/06/2026

A great weekend at Forrestburn for our Hillclimb event.
We had a couple of showers on Saturday, and the wind would have blown you over. On the plus side, the wind dried the track quickly. Despite a couple of red flags we still managed 1 practice and 5 timed runs.

On Sunday the wind had mostly gone and the sun was out. Getting practice and 4 timed runs.

Unfortunately we had a couple of stoppages due to someone outside the venue flying a drone over the track. We did trace them, and they instantly denied doing it, but unfortunately we cannot run cars when this happens. We have a couple of options available to us if it happens again.

We can't run a successful event without the help of a lot of people. So a massive thank you to our wonderful marshals, time keepers, scrutineers, Motorsport officials, CoC, rescue team, and medics. Plus Billy Cater and all the Monklands Committee who do a lot of work no one sees.

Our August hillclimb weekend is already available to book on Rallyscore.

We hope everyone had an enjoyable weekend, and have a safe journey home.

Alex had a cracking day at Forrestburn today, shaving over 2 secs off his PB with 61.63! 👏🏻
We won’t go into Jen’s day, but suffice to say her brain couldn’t pull it together today 🫤🤷‍♀️
After a cold, windy and sometimes wet day we’re hoping for more clement conditions tomorrow 🤞🏻

We left Forrestburn hill climb last June with PBs 1/100 sec apart! Alex on 63.78 and Jen 63.79. We’re back to resume battle with each other, along with Malcolm Galloway and Colvin Howie in their Imps, and other friends in D1 (Classic & Thoroughbred Road Cars). Les Johnston is also entered in his Davrian Imp in Sports Libre.
Bring it on! 🏁🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

When we sprint the Lotus we'll be racing ourselves even more - it looks like we'll usually be the only car in B1 (Specialist Production cars up to 1400cc)😟 That will a shock to the system after the busy Southern A1 and Scottish classics classes with the Imp!

This photo was taken at Castle Combe 2017, at the Elite 60th anniversary meet up.

It’s Jen’s birthday today and look at these fab earrings she got from a friend! 😁

As many of our competition friends know, we keep bees in our garden, just 1 or 2 colonies, but lost them over last winter. Well, at the end of last week a swarm arrived in our empty hive that we’d left in situ with a brood box and super, still with some honey stores in it. We inspected them today and they look very settled, so we are very happy! 😁 The garden without them had felt bereft.
Here is one enjoying our smoke bush ❤️
