I see that Chris Mann, and the 200+ club are looking to organize another Elvington run on October 27. This time a slightly longer top speed run, at 1.5 mile on the main runway, also with timed 1/4's. Open to anyone this time..

No mention of sprints, but there may be. He only mentioned drag runs in his email. Just hope it doesnt rain. He is increasing it to 1.5 mile, on the main runway, to see if anyone can break the 200mph mark. Lets see some big power cars running then people.

No, Tim... if you stopped being a girl and treat your clutch and gearbox like plantie treats his (and dont lend him your tuning module) you might win!!

David would yours be ready for then?
Plantie/Tim_W you know where you can stay this time if you book early enough
Its alot closer than where you stayed before, and plenty of off road parking.

£70 as far as I know.
Quote Chris's email....
to all
i have chance to run another top speed day, elvington (main tarmac runway)
using the full 2 miles this time, probably having the gear at 1.5 to
1.6miles (instead of 1.25m! ie. someone may crack 200mph!)
we can also run timed 1/4s in addition.
cost would be £70 for the day, open to anyone and any club, pass it onto
anyone interested. clubs/groups can get a rep to deal with me direct if they
like, but it would be open event and pay on day, 10am-5pm.
email me if interested, date would be sunday 27th october.
i have hotels and b+b /camping info if people want to make it a meet.
