I assume 'dual car sprints' = 1/8th mile drags?

by **Leon** » Mon Nov 21, 2005 9:10 am

Mmmm, desribe to me these Dual Car Sprints that you mention?

If it has corners, I am interested.

by **NZ_AE86** » Mon Nov 21, 2005 9:42 am

I am with Leon!

Yeah, if it is like the TOO HOT TO HANDLE'S 'Waterfront Street Sprints' (read drags!) then count me out!

More info please?

Its 1/8 mile drags...... usually without much traction... :lol:

OMG so shiny! · by **Dell'Orto** » Mon Nov 21, 2005 12:35 pm

No real timing either, its just on the air strip. Good fun for the day I spose

by **Air2there** » Mon Nov 21, 2005 2:06 pm

Hey guys,

Yes it is 1/8 mile drags, except we can't call it that because the airport board are against drag racing at the airport.

In terms of the timing gear, we will be using Cam County's gear (same at Port Rd). I know there have been some issues around getting hold of your time on the day at the last 2 events, however we plan to work on this for the '06 event.

Traction - well as it isn't a prepped track there is only so much we can do, ofcourse we are open any suggestions.

Cheers
Paul

Guys this is a charity event and it's normally very well supported up in Kapiti too.
I'll definatly be there as i'll have to have my car there anyway, but may also be there for work purposes i guess?
Was gutted to miss it this year

by **XSVWGN** » Mon Nov 21, 2005 11:21 pm

i will be there and i will be entering. It is an awesome day where hundreds of people turn up from way up north also. It is for a good cause also so thats what counts. Its a fun day for every one

so do helmets need to be worn or is it just turn up in your car that is up to scratch as wof and rego goes etc and race is cars matched evenly or is it juast random who you race?

by **Air2there** » Sun Nov 27, 2005 9:44 pm

Hey,

You car must have a current WOF and Registration. As we are running under NZHRA rules you will need a Helmet and Neck brace.

Cheers

by **Fred** » Mon Dec 12, 2005 10:57 am

would the timing system be working to give u 1/4? speed and time?
or just final speed and time?
is there a toyspeed stall there? or just show n shine by car park.

OMG so shiny! · by **Dell'Orto** » Mon Dec 12, 2005 1:26 pm

Pretty sure its just a show and shine, though no doubt if we wanted to organise a group of TS'ers to go along to look pretty, it would be kosher.

by **Fred** » Mon Dec 12, 2005 1:32 pm

id be keen, get a chance to meet the toyspeeders of welly and see the event
