Following on from the success of our "Head-Up" and "Bracket" rounds in 2011, Mr F has made some major changes to the format of this year's Drag Challenge and also addressed the criticism of Santa Pod's indifference to RWYB participants. This year we will have four rounds at Shakespeare County Raceway where we can run Z Club dedicated Bracket Eliminations, three rounds at North Weald where we can run dedicated Z Club "Heads-Up" eliminations and just three rounds at Santa Pod where the previous years' format will apply. See the updated Drag Challenge rules for more detail.

 

Dates as follows:

 

22nd April: Round 1 Shakespeare County - with Bracket Eliminator

6th May: Round 2 Santa Pod Raceway - RWYB with reaction time element

13th May: Round 3 North Weald - with Heads-Up Eliminator

17th June: Round 4 North Weald - with Heads-Up Eliminator

8th July: Round 5 Santa Pod Raceway - RWYB / RT

Apologies, but this event has been cancelled at short notice by Shakespeare County organisers. Official statement as follows

 

 

 

URGENT ANNOUNCEMENT

Due to the very unsettled weather conditions with forecast?s of heavy showers and longer periods of rain, having consulted with the Met Office and other weather bureaux we have reluctantly decided to postpone and reschedule this weekend?s 21st/22nd April 2012 Public Track Event. We would like to apologise for the short notice and any inconvenience as we were reluctant to postpone any earlier.

 

 

 

We can reschedule your round of the series to another Public Track Day Weekend. So sorry to inform you this way. I hope you and your members will understand.

 

Kind regards
