patsy Posted November 4, 2010 Share Posted November 4, 2010 Hi Ryan probs about 1h 30min from city centre depends how spirited your drive up is. Entry fee is 10 quid to spectate and then a further 15 if on the strip or oval. I will be up there for the back of 10 come and say hi if you pop up. Cheers Chris Thanks for that info Chris. I'll hopefully head up for 10 o'clock. Find you and nip your heed for a bit! Just want to see your motor running and the noise etc. Catch you then... Link to comment
RA Dunk Posted November 4, 2010 Share Posted November 4, 2010 Might just come down myself and pop my 1/4 mile cherry! Link to comment
patsy Posted November 4, 2010 Share Posted November 4, 2010 Quite right, good idea Dunk. Least I wouldn't be the only first timer there! Don't think I'll be on the strip this time round though? Never know what will happen once I get there but!! Link to comment

Don't think I'll be on the strip this time round though? Never know what will happen once I get there but!! This is turning out to be a bit of a meet a few folk attending this, Lewis don't worry Russell has my train of thought remember TOTB if something doesnt "break" you ain't trying hard enough. Patsy,Dunk virgins eh don't worry I'm sure Andy F will show us how it should be done. Can't get better coaching than that.. To be honest it's addictive and defoo a skill involved especially the lights at crail works very diffrent to most places your launch, the gear changes so I've been told still to learn it all my self should be a good laugh, ;-) Chris Link to comment
mikeyb13 Posted November 4, 2010 Share Posted November 4, 2010 Quite right, good idea Dunk. Least I wouldn't be the only first timer there! Don't think I'll be on the strip this time round though? Never know what will happen once I get there but!! I always say im not going on but then I see the lights and smell the clutches and I cant help myself. I was hoping to bring the 205GTI6 up to see what it can do but it has no seatbelts since the roll cage was fitted so ill be in the Lotus. And Im definately not taking it on Link to comment

I mananged to get into the 12's, Mandy says one of my terminals was 108 so can't wait to see my times. I think Chris had a problem with the car, I know AndyF did 2 runs in it but don't know times. I'm sure Chris will be along to update us. Link to comment

Chris' motor did develop a wee problem, so his day ended sharper than wanted. Felt gutted for him, it was looking very good before hand. Ryan Link to comment
