Right, a while back, we (well a few of us) agreed to organise the inaugrual Scooby Shoot Out challenge.
Many of have been to Track Days, many of us have been to Drag Strip days (not from one gender to another
) and some of us will have attempted top speed runs (on track), so...
... we now have the event to combine all 3 events into one day ... http://www.scoobyshootout.co.uk.
As you can see a lot of people have signed up, and have expressed an interest in running..
.. the date is Sunday 28th September and the location is Elvington Airfield, near York (home of Ten of The Best).
If you wish to join in the fun (after all thats what it is about IMO) or if you wish to spectate, then mark it in your calendars.
Sign up or spectate and watch/participate in scooby's battling it out to see who has the quickest scoob over the 1/4 mile, who has the fastest scoob at 1.25 miles from a standing start, and who can handle the handling circuit the quickest.
You dont need power or an all singing all dancing car to take part, just the sense of enjoyment and the knowledge that you will have fun!.
Look forward to seeing you all.

I think a location more central would see a better response.
having spoke to some of the southern people who went to TOTB2 it was too far away to guarentee them going back next year. Which is a shame....
Just an thought for you guys though! The day sounds good!

Should be a real good day.
I think we should keep this one, but also make another day more central as said above, bit to far for most of the southern lot.
Will be a really good day though and im going to try and get there

York is pretty central in the UK.Remember there are Irish,Scottish and Welsh owners too.
Santa Pod doesn't have the facilities and Silverstone would be much more expensive.By central,most southerners seem to mean London.

LMFAO,
'Central' seems to mean London only, I would be there, but I don't (yet) have enough airmiles to ship the car back
All the 'boys' claiming big bhp, 'great' turbo's etc etc etc should mean that the list is full from day 1 and only wait list is available.
What I would give to attend!!!

AFAIK there is no limits on numbers, yet, so get your name down if you want to come along.
Remember use the email on the page in the link on my first post.

imo £70 is to much, when i was informed yesterday that the qualifying for totb2 was £40 and that also included the handleing course
if this is true, then i can understand that on the day, putting the price upto £70 for the event, isnt that bad etc etc, becuase there was a lot of extras that had to be payed for like camera crews and stuff?
Open pit lane track day @ croft was only £85 not so long back, and thats a proper race track?
