Will keep an eye on this until Saturday PM and see how it is. pointless turning up there if it's going to be lashing down.

Even if it's not going to rain, make sure you take warm clothing as it is very open & exposed there. There is no cash machine there either so make sure you bring money as no cards are accepted.

If you plan on racing MAKE SURE YOU BRING YOUR DRIVING LICENCE or you won't be racing! if you have a crash helmet, bring that too.

Make sure your battery is secure on your car and that it has no fluid leaks or you won't pass scrutineering.

just been wondering..the zoners who have done the strip before ......whats your best times for 1/4 mile in the cars your taking tomorrow. Its just i mapped out a quarter mole stretch locally from traffic lights on flat ground today and timed myself....just wondering how close i might be or if im miles away...of course my timing would have been inaccurate but i did it as a guide.
