You might be able to get into one of those 50cc karts they have at the seaside, or just put your licence somewhere safe and then you wont lose it:thumb:

Have a look on here CLICKYHILLCLIMBS (http://www.hillclimbandsprint.co.uk/allabout.asp) ;)
At least for higher level motorsport you only need an MSA license, not sure about lower classes with no MSA license requirements, may have trouble there. Tom Chilton was in btcc at 15-16 though, wasn't old enough to have a license lol As far as I'm aware most classes will be the same, tbh it's an entirely different type of driving, you'd be banned for race circuit driving on the roads and vice versa lol
perhaps they are taking your license away for text typing ;)
i did read about a rally co-driver who lost their licence & lost their competition licence..
damon hill got done for speeding & nearly didn't race one year.
from what i gather, you need to show a valid driving licence when you apply for a competition one.

Certain races. Sorry can't be much more specific than that, you basically need to find championships you are interested in and check the regs for licence requirements. The national B race licence I have will cover the majority of clubman type races though
