Anybody up for this?

this is a great show, you can take your car up the drag strip or just enjoy the exhibits and
action on the famous 1/4 mile strip.

The jet dragster 'Fireforce 3', which does the 1/4 mile in around 6 seconds, topping out
at 270mph will also be doing runs during the day.

any interest in this?

If you want reduced price advanced tickets, you will need to use the 'print at home'
option.

If you want to try your car on the strip, then its £25 for unlimited runs on the famous
1/4 mile track.

I think tho, in light of the washout that the summer has been so far, we'll leave it a few
days before ordering our tickets lol

nice one Nick, its supposed to be dry tomorrow, we're gonna meet up with Rissy at Watford Gap Services
in the morning, but I guess with you coming from Peterborough direction, it will be easier to meet you there.

Hi Claire,
Yes I am going for sure. I'll be heading down the A605/A45 so I'll see you guys there.
Cheers

Great stuff!!! Well we're gonna meet Rissy at Watford Gap at 9ish, so I expect we should be at the Pod
before 10am - do you want to meet us at the entrance so we can all go in and park up together?

Also, a big requirement for anyone going tomorrow - DONT FORGET YOUR DRIVING LICENCE!!!!! (both parts
if you have the photocard/paper counterpart licence)

Entry on the gate tomorrow is £15 per person, and if you want to have unlimited runs up the drag strip, its
an extra £25.

Ok I'll meet you guys at the entrance. I'll aim to be there for just before 10am. It's only a hour from Peterborough.
I'll have Mason with me so I won't be going up the drag strip plus I know I'll break the car .

I'll email my mobile number in case we are late etc.

Cheers
Nick
