Default UK Cal-Look Drag Day - May 17th.

The SAS Rennwagens, the JG54 Greenhearts and the Air Cooled Eliminator VW Clubs have organised a Drag Test & Tune Day at Santa Pod Raceway on the 17th of May 2009 .

The event is called “The SAS Rennwagen / JG54 / ACE invitational” .

As the title implies , this is an invite only event, and is intended to be for the quickest aircooled car’s in the country . No sheds, no stockers, no queuing among a load of buses, this is for 15.99 second and quicker bugs, KG’s & Type 3’s and is the perfect opportunity to test and tune your car along with other aircooled gear heads. The benefit of running it on the Peak Performance day (Sunday) is there is a limit of 100 cars that run on the strip, plus it’s a FULLY prepped track to actual Race standards, so you get a good number of runs in on a very well prepped, sticky track - unlike the average RWYB event.

Santa Pod have allocated us a large pit area, and the intention is that we all head down to the Pod on Saturday the 16th of May for us to get setup in the pits, get cars ready etc. and we will have a get together in the evening. There is RWYB on the Saturday, but this is not included in the ticket prices listed below. If you wish to race you will need to sign in on the day with the general public (I think a number of us will be doing this).Then we’ll be ready to spend the day on Sunday the 17th of May making the most of the track. Those that can’t do the whole weekend would still be most welcome to join us on the Sunday only.

Tickets:

A weekend Ticket costs £66.00 including racing. Passengers pay the entrance fee only of £15.00 (note, if booked separately this would be subject to a £1.00 booking fee).

A Sunday only Ticket costs £61.00 including racing. Passengers for Sunday only pay the entrance fee only of £10.00 (note, if booked separately this would be subject to a £1.00 booking fee).

If anyone would like to come along and watch the racing they would be more than welcome. Santa Pod standard entry fee’s apply (£10.00 normally, please see their website for details).

If you are interested in racing please email details of your car including specification, vehicle type (type 1/type 3 etc.) any times previously run and if possible a photograph of your car along with your full name to drag-day AT live.co.ukand you will be sent full booking details.

Bookings are now being taken and bearing in mind the limited number of tickets available and the fact that a large number of bookings have already been made, to stand a good chance of getting in tickets need to be booked within the next week or so.

Cheers!
