Great you can make it, Charles. Hope lots more will join us 21st August, especially considering that no GTD 40 club track day is happening this year. Why not make this the 'unofficial' club track day?

Nad and I have just signed up for a test & time day at Santa Pod 17th August. I have now done a few of these days and I can assure anyone mildly tempted that it is adrenalin-pumping good fun. Last year I ran the 40 there and did a 12.7 @ 110 MPH, not bad for a 40 with a 302. Same day Nadine did a blistering 10.8 in her Viper! The 40 is awaiting major surgery and is out of action this season, so I'm taking my Viper GTS to Pod instead. It now has a blower and I'm keen to see if I can get anywhere near Nad's 10.8. Please come and join us on the drag strip, the cost is £50.00 per car + £10.00 per person entrance fee. You can book by phone: 01234 782 828. You need helmet, long sleeves and drivers licence to run. The test days are for a limited number of cars and nothing like the 'run what you brung' days where you are having to wait hours between each run. Here you can pratically do run after run with no waiting. Both cars and bikes welcome. I hope some of you can make it.
