Taken from fiat forum............

A couple of us Midlanders have been talking about doing some 1/4 mile runs to amuse ourselves, even if it amuses no-one else. There is a run-what-you-brung day on 13th June that we can all meet up at and run our cars.

There is no safety equipment required to run. You will need your driving license, MOT and insurance certificate. More details of rules and procedure in the website link.

The track is a proper strip that they glue, so weather plays a vital role in a successful day. If it is raining when you wake up and it is forecast to continue, then it probably isn't worth going!

I know Pandamonius Maximus, Panda Van and myself lewey will be going, but thought this would help to formalise things for anyone on the fence as to whether to pop along. There are no formal arrangements for meeting up and no food and drink will be laid on, etc.

There may be a boobie prize for anyone unable to beat the 20 second barrier!

Prices: £12 entry, £20 extra to run as many times as you like.


I'll be photographing there, so if anyone wants pics of their car pounding the strip, be there or be square !!!
