This years Scooby Shootout is proposed for 3rd October run by the Straightliners team at Elvington near York. I am sure many of you would have been to the event before or TOTB at the same venue. The guys are looking to get a minimum of 70 cars competing on the 1/4 mile strip to make it a goer. Cost will be circa £80 for the day for unlimited runs.

Over on 22b we have 10+ names down so far so please pop your names down if you would like to support this event. We really need to support these events if they are to continue in future years

Many thanks

Clive

 

Put me down please (not on 22B so can't post):

Dave Garrett - Lardy Newage

 

Will do mate, will pop all the names across once we get some significant support. Hoping there are still a few Scoob drivers out there that want to see what there cars will do over the 1/4 with a day out with like minded people.

I would like to add this is not about winning chaps, just get out there and have some fun. If you have not done anything like it before then don't be put off, we are not all big scary people

Clive

 

A good friend wants to enter as well but he bats for the other side (evo), is this ok? If it is can you put him down as well please:

Stewie (MLR) - evo 8

 

i would like to have a go at this

Is this event still going ahead?

 

That's the point of the thread, we need the support to guarentee it's running, however I must say I am shocked by the lack of interest on Scoobynet. Do you guys just wash your cars these days and talk about how fast they are ! ?

 

Done mate, your both on the list

 

Popped you on the 22b list mate

 

Yes they do Clive, its all washing and stickers on here

 

I rarely wash mine, 'twas the only dirty rally-slag in the car park last weekend...

But I don't have the budget to replace the clutch, sadly...

My support will be as a spectator, as usual.

Posted on other but put me down mate
mic blob sti

 

Will do

 

Cheers

 

Unfortunately yes I do cos I cant afford to run the thing these days never mind throw a load of money at it for events like this...some of us arent that lucky. However I would still be interested in coming along to support such an event so thats was why I was asking.

 

Don't take it personally chap, was a tongue in cheek comment. People coming through the gates is important as those competing so thanks for your support, it is definitely going ahead so hope you can make it. Come and say hello on the day also.

Clive

 

Its okay - I wasnt just explaining my situation.lol

Great news then... I missed Ten of the best due to work commitments so really looking forward to this.

Cheers and hope the day is a success.

 

I have now had confirmation from Trevor that this is definitely going ahead.

Cost is confirmed @ £70 which gets you access to the handling course also if you want to give that a bash.

Lets see if we can get a few more names to make this a top event.

Clive

 

Clive nice to see the price is lower that what was first quoted, for anybody watching this thread dont be scared give it a go I have done the last 3 scoobyshootouts and have really enjoyed the crack and banter the handling course is something else and with it been the final for the grudgement days that trev/straightliners have been running all year should be a good day I might add that the handling course isnt only scoobs it has classes for F/W R/W standard /modified /pro might even bring the old lard **** mondeo st out to play.

 

Given the number of TDCi Mondeos owned on here they should have their own series...

LOL
