Hi guys,

its been almost two years since I've hit the strip, and now that the car has changed a fair bit since then, I'm keen to see how much faster is really is.

Next Wensday, the 17th of March!

I know a few of you have done a few major things to your 5's too, i'm sure you would be curious what it runs down the strip no?

Last time I went it was $50 to enter, and $20 to spectate.

Racing starts at 6 and concludes at 10pm, the earlier you are there, the more runs you can fit in! ( I think I managed to squeeze 5 runs in, so for $10 a run it's pretty good value).

Edit: Whats needed?

What's needed on the day is a ADR approved helmet, long sleave shirt/jacket and long pants (non plastic).

There is scrutineering, i.e i pit where some people in fluro vest inspect your car to see if its safe to race. All they really worry about is the battery being secure, and other items being secure i.e engine components, stuff in the cabin etc.

I would reccomend trying to get to Eastern Creek by 5:30, that way you have some time to get all the paper work and scrutineering sorted.

Who's down?

I've never taken my SP to the drag strip, but I'd be keen to do so.

Love to see what my 183rwkW will do down the quarter.

Wicked Wednesday? Great idea. Definitely keen to try my 135i on the strip. Would probably get there at around 6:30ish if I leave straight from work.

I'm a 50/50 for next Wed. Got Wakefield the following morning so if I'm all prepared I can come out to WSID.
