Anyone else. Getting very close to me confirming and booking my accommodation in Leics.

Shifty · 11-02-2006, 12:12

If someone would care to give me more details, as per my post earlier on, i will attend. But it's a long way to go with vague info.

What time? Would be most helpful.

I believe it kicks off at 9am, and I hope to (if going

) get there for 9am. If you're coming from ooop north, will you be passing the general M1 Leicester area? I'd meet you en-route then if that was the case.

"Saturday Night Special

Experience the thrill of night racing at Santa Pod Raceway. The sights and sounds of the raceway are intensified by the night air. All types of vehicles, from hot rods to hot hatches, dragsters to bikes are invited to use the track for day and night racing.

The track is open from 9am-9pm (weather and track conditions permitting) with additional attractions of demo runs by a 270mph Jet Car, catering, bar facilities and evening entertainment. There is also free camping for those wishing to stay over for the Sunday Run What Ya Brung, and of course all clubs are welcome.

Saturday Night Specials are 18th February and 14th October 2006."

I'm quite tempted to stay in a tent for the Sunday as well.

Shifty · 11-02-2006, 13:10

Sounds good, can't stay over sat night, got my daughter on Sunday. Some guys are going from Blackpool, so, i'd say 99% chance of me being there. Is there a paddock area to leave two wheels?

I hope so.

I shan't bother with my tent then.

I'll just head back to my relations. Not sure how long the Saturday night show goes on for though.

Right, I'm going now. Anyone who wants to see the mongrel in action is welcome to come along.

Matt_D · 11-02-2006, 20:56

No paddock to store stuff i'm afraid!

Bring a length of chain and a padlock and lock it to a concrete fence post thats what most do

devonutopia · 11-02-2006, 21:05

Well, I'm running on normal wheels now. Just going to tweak the pressures.

Are you allowed to do passenger rides there? Or no?

PS: I AM 100% GOING NOW! booked my room up there as well, so looking forward to it 110%

Only 7 days to wait.

Tom_vRS · 11-02-2006, 22:14

I'll be "in the area" on Sat, will try and pop along, perhaps with some fellow Briskodians!

And no, passengers are not allowed.

devonutopia · 11-02-2006, 22:22

I'm glad passengers aren't allowed. Means another 25kg out my car

Matt_D · 12-02-2006, 12:00

Looking good!

I know Shifty and Jason have a 'few mods'

What about your cars Boyced and Faboka ? or will i be the only standard one there ?

devonutopia · 12-02-2006, 17:40

Boyced won't be running in a Skoda, and I'll looking forward to seeing how quick his Seat is? I assume its the Cordy running

Faboka has AMD 1 click IIRC.

Matt_D · 12-02-2006, 19:55

Ahh!

Oh well should be fun

Tom_vRS · 12-02-2006, 20:12

I thought Faboka had some fuelling only remap?

I may be there - and do runs with and without the one-click.

Only thing is, the ICE is heavy as hell, and no way is it coming out!

Ah yeah, I think it was the DMS remap from Awesome GTI.

I was looking to get it. Like the idea it keeps the stock boost.

I hope its not wet this weekend like it was this weekend by me. Traction would be a bitch.

for your £20 can you run both cars?

Seeing as the seat is standard

I don't know, feels quick.

devonutopia · 13-02-2006, 16:18

£20 gets the car on track - How are you going to get 2 cars in?

I'll be showing up in just the one.

faboka vrs · 13-02-2006, 17:17

So its £20 for entry plus unlimited runs? How much for just entry?
