Like i said if people feel the need to use it as a qualifier then they choose to use what tyres they like....
Why is there a place for both type of events - didn't hear of many Fords at TOTB so its not really the point - more of a shootout for the classics not the modern money pits.
If you want to be negative about it then fine - Thats not why i posted, was merely for a load of people to have fun, if this means we have a place for donuts then so be it, if thats what makes people happy I am all for it.
BTW how do you show how powerful a car is buy doing donuts ? the mk2 will donut better than any saff on the bbs LOL so does make em the most powerful

PMSL @ fun day....
Do you not think it would be at least bit competitive ?
Brunters are very strict regarding events and its hard to book there.
For an interest that you have a good preperation for the totb event i am surprised you wouldn't be interested.

I have just been talking to Chris about this.
Would need roughly 60-70 cars running to cover costs, plus people on the gate. THis pays for timing gear and the venue hire.
THis is not a profit style event JUST a cost covering exercise.
Event would have to be 1/4 and top speed with possibly 0-100 in the timed event to.
There would be a charge on the door for the spectators, and would have to be run with advance sales and RWYB entries on the day - free booked would get a discount for starters.
So i have sorted quite a few of the details....
WOULD this be a good event to get the TOTB qualifying done ? Therefore the rules apply.
As this is the same venue as TOTB then surely it has to be the best choice - i know it piss's certain people off because of travelling but i can't help locations of event or where you live.
NOW this is a SERIOUS post and could happen if the interest is there.....
