TOTB is not Max Poo tho is it ?
Chip,
why is it weird? i like competition, and if i know x car is easily going to beat y car, then there is no competition.

Well all the people who "knew" that the crappy little corsa was going to get its arse handed to it by every "awesome jap motor" last year were pretty surprised.
But you seem to be missing the fact that its split into some very hotly contested classes with genuine competition.
I have literally got NO idea at all who is going to win the FWD class this year for example!

i just have no interest in spectating at the event at this current moment in time.
plus that you pay your Ł15 to Ł20 to get in, and cant see fuck all cos you've got all the knob heads in the pit lane and there isnt enough stand space

SapphymMike- Seeing as there is a MASSIVE selection of amazing cars, I couldnt even pick a secection of 10 that were bound to be the fastest in any one class, and im sure I know more about a majority of these cars than most folk, I dont understand your argument.
Fair enough if you just not too interested in going to this event, but blaming it on the cars that is going is madness, the cars that are going, the incredible selection and quality, is the ONLY reason worth going IMO.

You will have great difficulty finding somewhere to stay now. Very few camping sites are available because of previous 'antics' for TOTB

Redline TOTB 6- news- The ultimate head-to-head
As a special treat we have organised the first ever (maybe their one and only?) head to head drag race between Keith Cowie's RB Motorsport R32 GTR and Tim Websters Duke R33 GTR at Redline TOTB6 on the 29th July @ Elvington airfield.
This should happen at around 1pm on the day, with a direct drag race between the pair of 8s pro-drag cars.
Tim and Keith are both up for it and have kindly agreed to take to the centre stage at that time.
It's also feasible they will rematch again later in the day during the pro drag class finals at 4pm, but regardless of qualifying times this heads up should be great.
