Shame about no passengers I'm sure there's a few people that want to see what 170mph feels like!

 

yeah, insurers are clamping down and ensuring no one else sits in the cars which is fair enough considering any potential risks. people are racing when all said and done!

 

extra person = extra weight = slower

 

My missus knows what 170+ feels like without the aid of a bumpy concrete airfield!

I'll definately be stopping back until the end of the day to see the Scoobies race head to haed.

PTMW, I'd love to say hello at the event and thenk you for the help and concern you showed when my mate had his Eclipse stolen. If I can't buy you a pint, then a burger is the least I can do!

 

Are spectators welcome?

Just turn up on the gate and pay £10 entrance fee and thats it to watch the shootout?!

 

yep thats it

 

Great!
As it just so happens my family and i are going on hoilday to York for a short break, and the timeing could not be more precise!
Would'nt miss for the world

Pleasure to help out even a little bit to see a ****** get knicked. Please do look me out, green wagon with a P1 front (T847 HKO) or if I remember them, PTMW! plates

 

PTMW, if I knew what a P1 front looked like then I'm sure I'd notice!!!! Seriously, my knowledge of scoobs, is that there are the nice ones and the ones with massive headlights that look ugly! I'll make a note of your reg, though you might notice mine when I'm working on it, there's some pictures here - Car domain page. Have you got any pictures of what I'm looking for in a wagon with P1 front?

No doubt I'll be more than educated by the end of the shootout!

But it is likely to be a lot dirtier than that!

 

Looks nice, like I said, the headlights that look good!!!!

What are the rules with regards to tyres? car prepration levels etc?

 

hi john

same as totb3, road legal dot or e marked tyres, with road legal tread depth. cars need to be taxed, tested and insured, and owners should have their info with them, especially if they think their car may be pulled up by us, or someone else on the day.

basic safety scrutineering will take place, cars can be stripped of interiors if people wish,as long as left safe condtion. external trim ie headlights and indicators etc all to be present and working !
any mods allowed, no fuel restirctions, nos is allowed.
rgds

 

cheers chris.

If you are driving a non scoob so outside the oficial competition do you still have to keep to these rules?

 

uh oh...

 

What about removing the passenger side headlight for runs? I need as much air as poss into the old dog (K&N sits there).

 

removal of headlights IS allowed under drag rules for Santa Pod

 

But were any of the cars allowed to remove their headlights at last year's TOTB event, as that's what the rules are based on?
