south west drag strip

[Lee@LA]

Hi,
Just to let you know 1/8 mile drags at dakota drag strip on smeatharpe airfield in Devon, Check out www.streetnights.com for more info.
see you there if you can make it.

[Fat Richie]

Nice one Lee! From the NSRA site it looks like quite a few Apple County chaps will be in attendance, got it booked in the diary!

[Lee@LA]

Thats great Richie, will they be doing both?(track & show 'n' shine).

[V8S]

I can't find any mention of noise restrictions... and would a TVR be welcome?

[Lee@LA]

Everybody is welcome to run but you must have an exhaust system, no open manifolds. You can use slicks, or if don't want to race, go in the show& shine or have a club stand.

[Gezzmarrelda]

Hmmmm.... Might bring the 200 along if it's fixed.

[V8S]

Hi,

Sounds good - so there's no noise restriction (i.e. to a certain decibel) other than having an exhaust system?

Do you have to pre-book or can you turn up on the day?

Is there likely to be other TVRs in attendance or is this mainly aimed at the modified crowd?

[Lee@LA]

Thats right v8 just needs a exhaust system to keep the village and church service happy.

pre reg on the site for updates but you can just turn up.

I hope a few TVR'S turn up, everybody is welcome whatever you drive or ride.

[V8S]

On the site it says drivers of open-topped cars need a helmet - mine is convertible but with a roll bar. Do I need a helmet?

Can they be hired on the day?

Oh, also, is there a petrol station nearby? Does it have super unleaded / VPower (Shell)?

[Lee@LA]

Yes you have to wear a helmet and we can provide one.

There is a BP station in Honiton, not sure about shell.

I so want to go to this, I haven't had a chance to test my CBR1000-powered seven at full chat yet and I look forward to trying her out against some real rice-burners...

[Bomber Denton]

I'd love to go but I'm off to Le Mans.

Is this going to be a regular thing?

[Lee@LA]

yes we are trying to get more events at the venue :-)

[Dougie.]

Go for it mate, we'll be down at the first one on June 10th with the camera taking some pics for Total Vauxhall Magazine.

[Lee@LA]

Which one of the collection will you bring down Dougie? :-)

Could you send me your email address down Dougie to [e-mail]

cheers

[Bomber Denton]
