York Dragway - Sunday 29th May

[E30BeemerLad]

I'll probably be there regardless, but thought I'd stick a new thread up about the next event there.

Sunday 29th May.

Racing starts at 10.00am

There was a good 24v showing at the last meet and Neil 320Touring made the haul down from Glasgow.

Just after a show of interest really

I'll no doubt keep you informed of my glorious 17/18 sec runs

For anyone considering going to York- DO IT!!!!

Nice one lads

There will be more Yank action this coming event as on the Sunday we were there last the American Superstock guys were just doing shakedown runs, whereas there will be a proper round of the championship next meet.

There's a couple of cars that are very close to getting in the 8's now at York, i.e the Mopar Duster and the Cortina. Plus a few more who will crawl out the woodwork with cars that were late getting finished for the start of the season.

As beforehand, it's all down to the weather. There's a day of racing on the bank holiday Monday too, so if Sunday looks gash, we may be able to swap to the Monday as an alternative.

Good shakedown before the pod on July 10th

We'll probably be down as I think our kid is borrowing Kim's car again to run in ACE and Sportsman, so slightly less beer consumed than last time (during the day at least ) but if it ain't too windy I'll bring the camera out of the van/sport and get some pics too. (I had it last time but wasn't prepared to get it full of dust).

[E30BeemerLad]

I may even desert RWYB to have a first try at sportsman

[billgatese30]

go for it Lee...just don't launch the car like a complete lesbo and you might make it through one or two rounds.....you'll love it

whilst RWYB is addictive, it's more akin to being addicted to jelly babies, where as racing is more like being addicted to caffeine enhanced smack flavoured tobacco

Stepsons wedding that day

Wonder if the missus would notice if I wasn't there

I'm going to show for this one. Are we camping Lee? Can you smash my back doors in again?

[E30BeemerLad]

I'll suck it to the hinge end mate

No idea about camping, think it will just be day tripping again.

Camping at the pod though, that's the best part

0.8mm of rain forecast for the 29th

[E30BeemerLad]

Grrr, will keep an eye on this as either it won't happen or we may move to the Monday (depending on what people's plans are) It's not too bad for me as it is only 20 mins down the road, but I wouldn't expect people to travel if the forecast is looking ropey.

0.8mm of rain forecast for the 29th

Thats a perfect summers day for us northerners

[E30BeemerLad]

If it's on for Sunday I might just camp as the missus is away Saturday night, will keep an eye on the weather and decide nearer the time.

[DanThe]

[kieran325]

I'm watching the weather too, if it turns out well on the day I might nip over.
