Saturday Entry:

[devonutopia]

Damn, that sounds like fun.

Shall consult my diary and if many more Skuds are going I'll see if its worth the 3 hour drive there and back.

edit: 223 miles. :thumbdwn: May have to see if I can make it into a weekend with my relations up there instead. Maybe with some extra time off work built in.

[day tripper]

Ill be there but on the cruisinuk stand. Ill be racing in a black suzuki ignis sport.

This night is looking very popular.

[Matt_D]

I think i may go down and have a few runs!

[Shifty]

So, do you book in advance, or just turn up.

Seems a long way to go not to get a run, and I can't see a way on the site to pre book.

Pay

Notice for anyone who is going, make sure you bring a helmet as santa pod dont have many.

[devonutopia]

Is anyone else going to this? I might try and make a weekend of it, if lots of others go for it?

[Tom_vRS]

I hope to be going.

For clarification - it is an all day event.

And I thought you only needed a helmet if you would be doing more than 100mph... No need for the Furbys!

I won't be there all day - maybe 3 hours or so...

Notice for anyone who is going, make sure you bring a helmet as santa pod dont have many.

unless things have changed since my last visit you dont need a lid unless it's a open top.

Soooo, is it possible to maybe start a brand new thread with the date in the title so names can be added? Like I said, I'll go if many others are going, but won't go on my tod.

edit: Will i be doing more than 100mph? That is a damn good question! I know that over a distance of around 0.33/0.34 of a mile my car will top 110mph, and as a lot of that time is spent in the 100+ bracket, I'm hoping that by 0.25 of a mile I'll be in the mid 90s.

[Tom_vRS]

I can't come now fellas - sorry.

[day tripper]

Why not? Its great fun, I was looking forward to blasting some skoda ***.

Doubtful as February doesn't have 29 days!

The dates in February are 12, 18, 19 and 26th

the 22rd and 29th are the January dates
