Just found out there is a mile event at Elvington today, looks like they do a few 1/2 and 1 mile events.

No screamer pipes and 101db limit, looks like europe may be the only option for a proper event now. :(

 

I can't believe in the whole of England we don't have 2 miles of spare land we could use. Maybe the club should set one up? Surely all we need is a good surface & a decent time tracking system?!? Don't understand how these events cost £50k+ to the organisers.

The Top Gear test track would be good at 1.7 miles IIRC.

I wouldn't want to run my car at those speeds at 100% throttle for that long tbh

 

Dont worry Guigsy..... just do an Abz :D he cant run his Civic for more than 5 yards before he pulls up ;)

 

Its not that long, took me 27 seconds iirc with 730bhp, bpu is only going to be a few seconds behind that.
