Redline TOTB 4 News update May 2005
www.totb.co.uk

We are now pleased to confirm the following clubs/groups will be competing
at this years event;
The 200+ Club, GTR Register, Team Subaru, Mitsubishi Lancer Register, UK ViperClub, GTO UK, 200SXOC, Skyline Owners Club, Hondas UK, UK Supras, GTIR-OC,
RS Cosworth, RS Turbo, Performance Rover Group, FDUK, CCC UK, Fiat Coupes, IMOC MR2, Corvettes, GT4 OC.
The event is now provisionally full for competing clubs; however we are still able to accept entries from individuals and Tuning companies. competitors@totb.co.uk


We have now confirmed that the Jun Lemon and Top Secret Drag R Skylines will be making an appearance at both Redline TOTB4 and Scoobyshootout. Both cars
ran at a recent test day at Elvington, and both turned in 10s 1/4m times, with lots more to come. The Top Secret car had not run before in the UK, yet managed an impressive 10.3s 136mph on its one and only full launch!

Trade areas are filling up nicely for the events, with The Organisation looking after the trade and display areas on our behalf. All the competing clubs can now apply for a dedicated spectator display area for their cars on a first come basis.
To enquire about a trade display area, or to reserve a club display area contact
claire.williams@the-organisation.org

Other event updates
Unfortunately due to potential noise problems and other issues on site we are not now able to offer general public camping as hoped, we are however
still able to offer this facility to traders and competitors for the Saturday night, contact us if you require passes to do so.

We have now confirmed improved P.A, catering, serviced toilets and grandstand seating/raised terrace viewing on site for the event. We will also extend the pitlane area to make access easier for cars and people.

The competitor pitlane will be enlarged and changes made to improve the flow of cars through the pitlane. A separate area for fuel storage will be available to prevent fuel drums being stored in pitlane areas. The handling circuit will have an enlarged viewing area for spectators, to bring the action closer, and competitors will all be limited to a maximum of 5 timed runs during the day to ensure fairness to all.

Finally we?d like to remind people that Redline TOTB 4 spectator tickets are now on sale in advance from the totb website at a discounted price of just £15 per adult. (£20 on the day, kids under 16 free entry with
parent/guardian) Official Clubs and groups can take advantage of our special bulk offer to members on entry tickets at just £12.50 per person in advance, contact us for details.

Further news updates will be sent as we move closer to the event.

Bye for now
The TOTB Team

SPUD NAD SIR.S. CARL FISHBOY ARFER

GO GO GO GO GO TEAM VIPER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

With some big power Vipers I can feel a Team Prize coming on,and a class win coming on!
Good Luck,Drive fast,play safe!!
Remember this>>>>POWER IS NOTHING WITHOUT CONTROL!
So no poncey driving boys and girls,no ball sh** on the standing mile like "I came of the power early as I wasn,t sure when to brake".There are 2 great dirty yellow and black chequer boards that tell you when to brake.So keep your foot planted until your past them,sounds easy but it takes some bottle when most of you will be travelling fastest then you have ever been in a car.Above 170mph things DO start to feel very fast.Any news from TOTB to reach N.Z about "had to come off the power" will be delt with in the usual Venom500 manor!
I,d love to see you all come away with some Silverwear!!
Have fun and Good Luck!

Unless Art looses the plot he wont be last as the SRT10 can hand the GTS its AR*E on a plate both on the handling course and the top speed assuming he keeps the roof up.......

Great to see you Viper lads sending a good team & feeling confident of doing well. Remember 200mph is required in the 1.2miles to be remotely competative in RWD. Sounds like a good battle ,cant wait.
