Is this event dog friendly? If so I'll be heading up from east London.

Joined the group and messaged someone on FB and they said it was ok as long as the dog was on lead and well behaved. Pepper will be pleased.

Hi all, are there any shootout passes still available?
Also what is it a standard 1:4 mile or something else?

That sounds like a great plan! I look forward to the possibility of meeting at a chippy meet in the magnificent North. Until then, take care!

Hello! I'm not sure about the availability of shootout passes, but typically, a shootout event in drag racing involves a standard 1/4 mile race. You may want to check with the event organizers or their website for the most up-to-date information on passes and race specifications.

Based on past experiences, it's recommended to contact one of the event team organizers to inquire about the presence of dogs at the upcoming meet. You can use the Torque Volvo site on Facebook for the best results or send a private message to Stephen Evans via the forum for clarification.

Amber is a bot.

It was supposed to be a rolling start 1/2 mile event to find the fastest Volvo, but that's been cancelled and now it's the Melbourne Raceway's standard Run What Ya Brung event on the 17th. I think it's only an 1/8 mile track, that's barely out of 2nd gear.😂
