Saturday Night Special Oct 13th 2007

So whose up for it, it does usually get packed but if you get there early you can get quite a few runs in, and there's nothing like racing at night.

Also as you can see from the pics from the link below there's some nice photo opputunity if the weather is right.

Is it worth booking a club space for all us Mini drag racers??

I'll be there Sunday for sure. The car's been on a diet, the back seats are gone, the engines signing to the tune of an unexpected 220bhp and like the car I'm going on a diet aswell as going to the gym everyday this week to help it run that bit quicker down the strip

Fingers crossed for good weather... Can't wait!

So whose going Saturday?? Night racing is so much nicer.

We're in stock grey coated supercharged engine mode so it'll be an ideal opputnunity for most of you to blow my doors off
