If you want to come, I'll add you to the list and just turn up on the day and pay £15 entry and everyone is a winner. RWYB is £25 - you will need to bring driving license for that mind.

The gates open earlier, but usually I aim to arrive around 9am, would say to aim to arrive before 10am if possible but no hard and fast rule on when you arrive and leave.

VR6Pete 1,442 Report post Posted October 9, 2016 What a brilliant day! Was good to catch-up with old faces and new members I spent most of the day on the drag strip and was happy with my 14.0 @ 104mph. Still lots of practice needed improving my launches Many thanks to everyone for supporting the club we had around 13 cars so really good day!If you run on the strip then post your times here too:) 2 mistline and Trickster71 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mistline 151 Report post Posted October 10, 2016 (edited) Awesome day guys, I too spent most of my time on the strip. Gotta get that start perfect!!! Then gotta get that gear change perfect!! I know i'll be stripping next year! Good laugh though, I really enjoyed racing against @Farhad for the day. I hope our rivalry (and the cars) are still there for next year!
