I am in the same boat as you, never raced on the drag strip before, but going to give it a go, although I am going on the Friday to see what times I can run ... then if I enjoy it, will sign up for the Saturday ... otherwise I will just take photos on the Saturday ;)

Daz you've got nothing to worry about...you got one little pit chickie who is going to be there and tell you that you are doing it all wrong...

By the look of your usual selection of pants, I think your 1st marriage did nothing for your sanity either...... :evil3:

I am not sure if there is a age rule, if there is no rule on age as long as he has a helmet long sleeves and pants should be ok...

[MENT4L]

i will be out friday nite for a look, may have a run but will have to be on street tyres because my slicks wont be here till next week

[scottmeister]

Not a bad day, be good if more N/As showed up! Mine ran consistently 14.6s, PB of 14.52 @ 97mph. :

[Rob]

Sorry for not attending, I had a family member committed to ICU at the Royal Melbourne Hospital last night.

Hope everyone had a great day otherwise.
