People do tend to take the quickest road cars there, drag cars would be a lot quicker to accelerate. People take along the fastest cars they can.
Its 1.77 miles useable. The timing beam is 1.5 miles down the straight. At Vmax they are all normal road cars & there is no winner they state that. You do your best & Fastest is well Fastest. Its about 3 things. Brute Power, Your cars Aero & Your brakes & perhaps the size of your balls. Some reach 200 with 600bhp others take 800bhp its why you cant compare different cars. They battle to be best of breed. I love it & really do wish I could enter as Craig asks me to attend.
Stevie this is not your type of event its a posh guys day out in there road cars not time attack or Totb & its better for that.
