What is the ideal event for you and your Supra?

[Gaz6002]

Following all the discussion about track days, standing mile events etc I thought it would be interesting to see what type of event is people's first choice.

 

So, if you had to pick one, which would it be?

 

Mine would be a standing mile, but only because I've never done it. I love track driving, love big skids but find drag racing doesn't share the same appeal.

Standing mile for sure. It's really all about POWER

[bradleyh_15]

I think a combination of a standing mile and track day would be the ultimate!

 

not sure if I had to choose just 1!

[Suprab1]

Never done any of them, but would love to do a standing mile just to see what she can do

[j1mb0b1]

I love track days just wish I still had my supra to go on them

 

Dont think my Ford van will cut it

[scotty71]

Track days for me

[AndrewOW]

Good question. Can I pick two?!

Nope

think a track day would be good if we could rent out a track! possibly more careful drivers and not such a high chance of damage to your car by others driving!?

 

we already have santa pod as a club, standing mile could be interesting

 

car shows are better within your local areas IMO like jap fest is just to big to get to know people and usually talk to a stranger thinking they own the supra there stood next too when actually then own a skoda in the car park

Standing mile as i have never done one . Rich.

I went for epic drive as they're usually fun - the Lakes run is always good.

 

Other than that, it would be a track day, although I never have the funds available for extra pads, tyres, etc when these things get organised.

Standing mile/trackday, as long as the noise reg allow

[lui]

Epic drives always good fun especially if quite few going

[dr_jekyll]

epic drive to a trackday is good for me

[Holden1989]

epic drive, for the NA owner, its all about MPG

i agree! need a poor mans event

Hard choice, but I'd have to go with a track day (drift days + epic drives a very close second). They've always been the best for showing what the car is capable of, and you're able to let loose in relative safety.

 

1/4 mile / standing mile were fun, but they didn't really grab me. Getting more out of those events seems to be what you can spend on your car rather than what you can do with it (though there is a little skill too). I could do a track/drift day once a week, but I'd only do a drag once a year.

 

Car shows... pah. Social side is nice, but cars are for driving, not for posing.

[Fitz]

Probably the 'look as stock as possible' event, I'd do rather well

 

(Epic Drive, N/A FTW)

[pedrosixfour]

Track days. Ya gotta love them, whatever the weather decides to do you can push it to the limit and have a blast regardless.

 

No two are ever the same.

 

Scratch that, as far as I can tell no two LAPS are ever the same!

[wile e coyote]

Just love the epic drives

Bring back DRAGON BALL

[johnny g]

Free

[L33]

dragon ball?!

[JamieP]

I like most of them, i was keen on 1/4mile till i got into the 10's, not to bothered about them now.

 

I did very much enjoy the standing mile event and wont rest till i do a 200mph mile now.

 

Always enjoy a good drive out/convoy with friends.

 

Trackdays dont interest me much but do enjoy Llandow as its a good club event and marshals there are not to strict.

[L33]

i want to meet jamiep day?!

[AndrewOW]

Maybe a secret 'Cannonball' (all within the national speed limit, of course) weekend over an extended route instead of a standing anything?
