Who's off?
I know there's a sticky thread in the meets section. But just wanted to know if any of the MkV boys are off and if so who's running?
I'll be going, but unless there's some sort of miracle, i doubt i'll be in mine, so will be just spectating for now.. :wink:
-
....I'm gonna be there (on the 'stand'), so is Hurdy :smiley: - Should be a good meet! :smiley:
-
er so am i thank you! :huh: :tongue:
-
The one in a couple of weeks?
I should be coming if thats what you mean. Its the day after my daughters birthday though so gonna have to do some serious begging to come! It's a long drive and the likleyhood will be that i have to bring her :sad:
I will also just be spectating. I'm really just going for the banter and to drool over other peoples moters :drool:
:kiss:

....I'm a 'strip virgin' too :grin:
-
I shall be in attendance as well :wink:
-
Don't worry about being strip virgins.. It's a good laugh and fairly straight forward. Just need to get a good launch (if conditions are right it can be very grippy) and rapid gear changes for all you non DSG boys... :wink:
-
yeah and no stalls.... LOL!!! :shocked: :rolleyes: :cry: :undecided:
-
Yup, I'll be there on the stand. The forum managed to get a really good spot last year, just behind the grandstand where all the action is :cool:
If you haven't "stripped" before I can recommend it - just remember your licence. :evil:

You running Hurdy? Have you run at Pod before? or just Inters..

-
Spot on mate.. be very interested to see what you get this year,, As you've got pretty much the set up i'll have.. Bar the Miltek.. (DSG, Revo and Carbonio)..

Didn't get a decent launch last year, but I've had plenty of practice now. :evil:

Lets just hope r32uk, if you go, you dont stall it ! :wink: wouldnt that be funny :smiley:
-
i guess there are some times i wish i had DSG lol
-
eh putting it in reverse is funny.
seen that happen a few times lol
Its a bit far for me to travel to but gonna try inters strip, done crail, yes i know it pails into insignif against the mighty pod lol.
how many runs you guys get for your dosh?
-
unlimited i believe
-
I think GTI fest is 3 runs for £15 Hurdy.. Normal Big event days are. But I prefer that, as the queues aren't as bad then. Plus with DSG and Launch control, you won't need many more than 3.. :wink: Standard RWYB days are £20 for unlimited runs..

Test your car on the world famous
Santa Pod 1/4 mile
Once inside the venue, for a one off signing on fee of £20, you can sprint up the famous 1/4 mile as many times as you wish.
Not per run, no time slots, just get in line and drive!
All day if you feel like it! And the timing equipment is accurate to world record standards, so the time and speed you run here is FACT, not fiction.
If you haven't done it before, give it a try. The adrenaline is addictive, even in a relatively slow car.
Don't forget your driving licence - NO LICENCE = NO RUN !!!
-
I for one will probably do 3 runs in the morning and 3 in the afternoon. :evil:
Last year I did 4 runs at Spring fest and realised it soon becomes a good adrenaline rush :cool:
-
Oh...and if I don't get under 14 second I will be DEEPLY disappointed. :sad:

Me and you both mate.... :wink: Don't think it'll be a problem though. Weather permitting.. Just hope this recent bout of wind fooks off. Because Pod is notorious for having a hideous headwind..
