One of the most stable and popular championships in UK Club Motorsport, the BMW Compact Cup is dubbed one of the success stories of recent times on the British circuit racing scene. We had a chat with Alistair to find out more. Alistair said: “At first I started going to race meetings travelling up and down the country following the sport, getting to know the drivers and teams. It was during this time I got the bug, I then knew it was something I wanted to do, and so it began - working and saving, working and saving until the day I could afford my own race car. My car was purchased from KC Motorsport. KC Motorsport is Page 6
a Scottish-based team and we race up and down the UK. The 2023 season is now coming to an end and my aim is to get my name out there for the 2024 season. I want to introduce myself to local businesses within Thorne and
the surrounding area who may benefit from advertising their logo/name on my race car. Keep it up Alistair and we cannot wait to see your racing career excel as the years go on!

Each issue will give our readers a fun fact about Thorne and Moorends that you may not know
Did you know? Until the 1620s, Thorne was in a more isolated location than it is today. Until then, it was cut off to the south as the River Don was able to flow along its southern edge towards marshland and eastwards into the River Trent. The river was diverted as part of a scheme to drain the marshland and then royal
#FYI

hunting ground of Hatfield Chase. Initially it was diverted into an old dike which took it northwards a the west side of Thorne and into the River Aire. Within a few years a new channel known as Dutch River was cut, which took the water of the River Don more directly into the River Ouse at what is now the port of Goole.

A memory from the past will begin to keep you awake at night. However, revisiting the past can sometimes give you the closure you need.
Your friendships are going to begin to change a little, not to worry, its just time to reflect on which the true ones are. Time will tell, just hang in there.
You aren’t in the mood for company or to listen to gossip. You have too many important things on your mind.

Simply keep on doing what you are doing. You have recently made some changes to your lifestyle and they are really paying off.
You recently made a life-changing decision which in the long run is going to hugely improve your life. Be patient and persevere.
