greeny Posted May 28, 2010 Share Posted May 28, 2010 Do you guys have any info on how its going to be run this year with it being over two days? Info seems to be thin on the ground! Have you had any correspondance from Trevor that the supras team is entered? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tDR Posted May 30, 2010 Author Share Posted May 30, 2010 Do you guys have any info on how its going to be run this year with it being over two days? Info seems to be thin on the ground! Have you had any correspondance from Trevor that the supras team is entered? Quite worrying that the new organisers aren't really communicating with the club reps - I've still not had anything back this year after chasing last week, the last correspondence I had was when Chris Mann did the handover by email. As far as I could work out after scouring the web, the event is only on Sunday as per usual - the Saturday is a test day if you wanna go to that as well for practice before the big day. When you send your entry form you need to include the appropriate money for one or both days and indicate on the form. Cheers, Brian.

Kevin Huntley Posted June 2, 2010 Share Posted June 2, 2010 Think I came 4th in the Top Speed event in 2008, 189mph in a standing kilometer. Always scored points for the club in previous years at great expense to myself...LOL Don't think I will ever compete in the event again, the loose surface and heat combined kills cars! This club always does terrible at TOTB, unlike most big other clubs few seem to show much interest Dude was about the only one that ever got anywhere in it! Shame really as we really should do quite well at the drag and top speed events. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest dnaxton Posted June 21, 2010 Share Posted June 21, 2010 Good Evening Chaps, Just a reminder Closing date for all entries is 3rd July 2010 Any questions concerning entering, please ask away. We still have places available for Saturdays warm-up day. If you are not in a team but think that you have a fast car then Saturday is the day to show us what you have got.

Regards Dave Naxton www.totb.co.uk Hi Dave, Firstly - thanks for posting to let us know. Secondly - What's with the apparent complete lack of communication regarding this year's event? Information has been sparse at best and I've had to go digging around for it... Guys - get your names down, looks like we're still on!!!

Steve Sherwood Posted June 25, 2010 Share Posted June 25, 2010 Anyone know if you can use 15" rims with drag radials for 1/4 mile and change to road wheels/tyres for other two parts or do you have to use same wheels tyres for all three parts? Emailed the organisers but not had a reply as yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kevin Huntley Posted June 26, 2010 Share Posted June 26, 2010 Hi Steve, I used 15" MT ET Drag Radials last year for the 1/4 mile event. I then used my regular road wheels for the top speed and Handling event. Think I would have had better results in the top speed and handling events with some Toyo 888's. I have a set of 15" Drag radials for sale if your interested. Thanks Kevin Anyone know if you can use 15" rims with drag radials for 1/4 mile and change to road wheels/tyres for other two parts or do you have to use same wheels tyres for all three parts?

Steve Sherwood Posted June 26, 2010 Share Posted June 26, 2010 Thanks Dude, Kevin I will pm you about the radials. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dude Posted June 26, 2010 Share Posted June 26, 2010 I would make sure you go for 325/50/15 radials, you want to aim for a tyre that is around 27-28" tall, they are a tight fit but its worth it for 1 less gear change and the way the car will accelerate if you have the power to turn tall tyres, which you have.
