Early bird entry prices close on the 28th Feb.

Anybody who is considering the need to take their road cards for a bit of a strop on closed roads, should be in.

There is a tour 2 day event on the second weekend in June and one for the main event at Labour weekend.

It is seriously good fun and the next best thing to competing.

I wish I was flush enough to do this... unfortunately, my budget won't stretch to any more than a trackday or two this year... car budget is approaching zero

What is the targa power to weight ratio anyway, without me having to trawl the website?

If I build the Murtaya, and it weighs in at say for easy calcs, 1000kg wet minus driver, what's the max power I can get away with? Given that the car will be 4wd and turbo...

I can dig it out for you.

It's a boofhead set of rules that causes people to add lead & steel to the floors of their cars and overload the suspension, brakes etc banghead

From memory you will also need a full cage. A roll-over hoop is not enough banghead banghead

Can you just add a suitably fat passenger?
