E30 Zone

Right, there was interest shown in this late last year when I started a thread on it.

Yesterday the dates were released of when meets are taking place this year.

I would like to see a GENUINE show of interest for those who would be keen in attending. Both people who want to run and those who would just come to spectate.

First of all, these are the dates and what is going on at the events.

Bear in mind Santa Pod this year is on 10th July, so with the expense of doing that, consider if you would prefer to have this event before or after pod.

If anyone has any questions then let me know.

Here is a link to the website for the strip with general info

http://york-raceway.com/

--------------------------------------------------------------------

The general plan I was working on is whatever the race day is, camp the night before and have a general lash up. There is usually quite a few racers that camp there and there is a bar that is open and sometimes there is entertainment such as live music.

Camping is by no means compulsory and some people may want to just arrive on the day either to race or just spectate, it's up to you.


So, to conclude, what I'm after at this stage is a show of interest and express a preference on dates. I will then contact the organisers to see if we can have our own class, so we would always run against each other. Unless there are say 10 cars which will defo turn up & race, then we won't bother asking for a class, we wil just run with other RWYB runners.

Just bumping this incase folks either have not seen it or alternatively nobody is really interested?

I'm interested, in a turn up on the day and watch kinda way. It sounds great, whatever the date.

Well this is looking very doubtful.

I'll be at most events there this year so if anyone fancies joining in then just shout up

Lee I will come along and hold your gland

I will be there, not really bothered which date

Depending on dates i will come

You know me Lee. I'll probably be at most of them with the exception of Easter.

I am in mate. The lash up swang it.

I'd be up for this, pretty much any date with a bit of notice.

I'll be up this, probs gonna be going to a few of them anyway

I quite fancy seeing what 1/4 mile mine will do when its converted

Was talking to Dezzy about this since you mentioned the first meet is easter weekend, wouldnt mind planning that as the first CR24v-tm official meet of the year

DanThe wrote:Was talking to Dezzy about this since you mentioned the first meet is easter weekend, wouldnt mind planning that as the first CR24v-tm official meet of the year

I can't do the Easter weekend as I'm getting dragged to Nowrich for the mother in-law's birthday, dagnamnit!

There is a meeting the following weekend on the first May bank holiday which may be quiet with there being a 2 day meeting the weekend before.

Also, the Sunday 1st May event has 0-60 timing gear set up in the right hand lane

I will check with the warden mate.

Should be able to make the week after. I will ask when the time is right.

Sounds good to me

i'm in for some of this ,just waiting on a date confirming now

OK shall we provisionally say Sunday 1st May then?

Is anyone bothered with camping on Saturday night?

i'd stick a tent up on saturday if anyone else is ??

It's a date.
Not sure about camping. I will see if I can get a night pass.

Camping, oop norf??


No fercking chance!

You not man enough? Or are you not allowed?

So no 12 valvers allowed eh?

Get yourself there Mike

More the merrier Mike, be it camping over for a lash up, just turning up to do a few passes on the Sunday, or just turning up to spectate.

Would like to get a good crew of E30's there, plus there's plenty more action to watch such as the american superstock stuff, crazy aircooled stuff, plenty of 9 second+ cars there, a jet car. Really friendly atmosphere. It's a bit of a dive, but the people & the racing make up for it.

Assuming we are not in Spain, which is looking less than likely, we'll be there on the Sunday morning (kipping in our poncey caravan feels like it might be better than a tent!)

Looking forward to it already

Any more interest in this?

Sunday 1st May

How many are genuinely interested in Camping on Saturday night?

Can we make a list of who is coming, if we had say 10 cars that were running we would have our own class, but that's not the be all and we'd probably run against each other in the RWYB class we would be put in (2.0L and over without turbo or nitrous)

1- Beemerlad (will camp if others want to)

Just bumping this for definite show of interest.

On present form, it will be a case of turning up on the Sunday 1st May, either paying just to park & spectate, or paying to race.

If any other info is needed, please let me know.

how much for the strip action ?

i will be there Lee, not camping though..

gotta love a bit of york strip action,

It's £12.50 to get in

It's £30 for unlimited RWYB. If you are there and ready to race at 10.00am and stayed until past 4pm you'd see over 20 runs, especially at the end of the day you just line up, run and then come straight back round.

Your car does get scrutineered before you pay any money to run, so checking for any leaks, loose battery etc etc. No fluid leaks whatsoever.

Aye Steve, the Yank stuff really does it for me
