MONKEYmark Posted April 7, 2003 Share Posted April 7, 2003 there is a run what you brung at elvington on the 27th of april there is a lot of intrest.a guy off cruise site with a skyline is getting people intrested in it. lifted this post to post here Elvington 27th April!!!!!! RWYB!!! This is a quote from Chris Mann, if you don't know is the founder member of the 200+ club. Following such a cracking day at Elvington yesterday, thought it would be good if you all put this date in your diaries NOW and lets make a day of it! quote: -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- we are trying to get a few more cars/clubs to come down to these events, as it is open to all, and maybe run a friendly "inter club" series with 3 dates for next year. next date is 27th april and all are welcome, incl spectators, there should be a digital display running for times at the next one.

Thorin Posted April 7, 2003 Share Posted April 7, 2003 Yeah theres a few people from the Skyline GTR board going. Thought I'd take a trip up there, it's only just up the road from me after all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MONKEYmark Posted April 7, 2003 Author Share Posted April 7, 2003 a lot of them cruisers are going for some grudge matches. and a few big cossies, a few skylines and hopefully a few supras. would be good if it starts to pick up as an alternative drag strip to york as york back roads are run down on york dragstrip should be another good day out Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thorin Posted April 26, 2003 Share Posted April 26, 2003 I've been looking at weather forcasts and I think it will be scattered showers at worst and not all day. The runway apparently dries out pretty fast and they've said that a bit of rain isn't going to stop the runs Will be my first time on the drag strip, so no mocking me when I get a 20 second run or something!

Where abouts did you get your information on the event Mark? i got info off cruiseboard and its on the gtr in the events section. chris mann has said its on, and not to worry if it rains as they dont stop it as its grippy concrete. last time i was racing at elvington was getting some good launches and it was bouncing down. even beat a 4wd audi rs4 and also got beat by a mad one too. it seems like a few skylines are going. its only supposed to be £5 to spectate. suppose if anything it will be a nice drive down. might have a go at racing astra anyone want to race a sleepr astra ;-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thorin Posted April 27, 2003 Share Posted April 27, 2003 Well I look at the met office website now and it says bloody thunderstorms in York, but just a few miles down the road in Hull (or Leeds) and it's nice and sunny. Oh well, I'm still going anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
