Default york raceway RWYB 30th may

Hello after the sucess lee had last year with the meet at york race way i think we should do it again.
Heres the info lee got last year for the event so i doubt it will have change much ii not at all.

If we went as a group ( we dont all have to show at the same time ) we get our own cordoned off area to showcase our cars. It doesnt matter if we go as 5 cars or 30 cars its the same.

We get a guarenteed 3 runs up the strip, but if we attend early and stay late we will get a lot more runs in.

If we dont get the guarenteed 3 runs we get our money back.

As a group we get a 10% discount, so 1 car in every 10 goes free ( No fighting over the spaces please, names would be drawn out a hat if there was loads of us )

We get the print outs for 1/8th et, 1/8th mph, 1/4 et, 1/4 mph, 60ft, and reaction times. ( et = Exact Time )

York Raceway has 0-60 timing equipment integrated with the original TSI Drag Racing timing computer which provide accurate and precise 0-60 times along with the traditional drag times. In the right hand lane only !

We also get our own alloted time on the strip, we only race each other, not 600bhp porsches and the like.

We get to see every other event, all showcase areas and demo's.

Prices are £10 admission per person + £30 per car, so if you went with another person in your car it would be £50 ( £30 for the car and 2 x £10 )


This is the linky for them.......http://www.york-raceway.co.uk/aboutus.html


But first lets see who will attend so please add your name to the list

1. T5 Pete
2. Danny r
3. Smithness
4. sebasteeno
5. Rimmer
6.TC
7. Lee
8. Smithy
9. James
10.Gayle
