Default rwyb @ Elvington 30th october

just been informed of the final rwyb of the year at elvington from straightliners, usual £45 per car for unlimited 1/4m and top speed runs. will run regardless of weather, final chance for a play before putting the cars to bed for the winter!
signing on from 9am as usual, helmets are required.

they do run bracket classes, ie 14.5s, 13.5s 12.5s etc etc, so you will end up running against similar speed cars in your class. each class has a shoot out final at the end of the day normally.

and yes its @ elvington airfield, not Melbourne (York Dragway)

there is a bike rwyb on the 23rd at elvington for the bikers

He can set your cam timing if you want him to have a play for more power. As for fuelling,boost and ignition yes he checks it all

Two mins from cineworld, next to MG garage

Usally only charges an hour's labour. Never been more than £50
