Guest KDW Posted June 26, 2009 Share Posted June 26, 2009 What rules will there be in terms of how fast you can run without a 10pt cage, parachute, etc. ? And will there be any prep work done to the track (ie. trackbite or other glue compound) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Branners Posted June 26, 2009 Share Posted June 26, 2009 I think if you plan on running under a 10 second I would need to check the rules to see what they think is needed. The track will be prepped. If we get the cars coming along that I hope to get then it will be properly prepped for an 8 second car. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GazB Posted June 26, 2009 Share Posted June 26, 2009 A fully prepped track should be good I should just about have mine sorted by middle of July so hopefully i'll be there. I've not booked yet but when i get back from my break i'll be booking a slot and also will be staying at Billing for the Friday & Saturday nights Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steve Posted July 3, 2009 Share Posted July 3, 2009 If anyone is thinking of doing the drag racing at Suprapod, please PM me first. I have paid for a space but unfortunately will no longer be able to take part. Just would like back what i have paid. Branners is aware of this.

Jamesy Posted July 6, 2009 Share Posted July 6, 2009 can i ask what kind of cars are doing the drag racing? as in power? is it like TOTB with 600+ bhp cars running 10 and 11's? or will there be some BPU cars? how many drag runs do you normally get? do you need special race fuel for it? different tyres?

You can ask whatever you like, and we'll do our best to answer you, however can you start by reading the the main information and FAQ thread, see if that helps at all, but then of course come back with any questions you still have unanswered? I'm sure you understand we get a lot of duplicate questions and it can be time consuming to answer them all. The link it at the start of this thread, and in my sig.

Hi mate yeah did read all that beforehand, as i can imagine u getting asked a lot of Q's. I see there is unlimited action on the strip - just wondered roughly how many times you actually get to use it with 100 people there on the day? and would also like to know what sort of spec'd supras race on the day? do you get drawn at random as who you are racing>? and also the fuel/tyres question? (hope none of that has already been mentioned on the link as i cant see it!! ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(hope none of that has already been mentioned on the link as i cant see it!! ) I think last year i must have done around 20+ runs There are all types of Supras running from n/a's to TT's to Single Turbo Supras. I ran my normal road tyres although they had to be changed shortly after I just ran my usual fuel (Optimax) Edited July 6, 2009 by Steve (see edit history) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jamesy Posted July 6, 2009 Share Posted July 6, 2009 cheers mate - what about the fuel then do you just fill up before you get there? am thinking 20 runs will easily do a tank of fuel no? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah i filled up before i got there. Cant remember how much fuel i used (wasn't a tank full though), but as mine was a T67 single Supra, i am guessing it used a little more than most Gutted i won't be taking part this year Edited July 6, 2009 by Steve (see edit history) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
