Just found out the list cannot be updated on the gb forum as you cannot add the word paid until the gb is full, yeah well done admin ermm not #-o

Some news just in today, the 1/4 mile is now been run by Straightliner's the people who run TOTB so all time's from this event are valid for TOTBV qualification so this must be the cheapest event that the times are valid for TOTBV :D

Format for the 1/4 mile is 10am to 4pm with a shootout starting at 4pm between the 4 fastest car's in each class, the classes are-

Prolex UK Fastest Lexus.

Prolex UK Fastest N/A Lexus.

Prolex UK Fastest FWD Toyota.

Prolex UK Fastest RWD Toyota.

Prolex UK Fastest 4WD Toyota.

Prolex UK Special Prize For The Slowest Car Of The Day ](*,)

Each class shootout is 1st v 3th & 2nd v 4rd & the winner of each heat is in the final of each class.

Big thank's from Dave from Prolex for his involvement with this event from the start =D>

This as you will guess i'll copy and paste to each of the 6 Toyota clubs attending except GT4OC as they have gone into hiding with their forum but hopefully this will be the biggest Toyota Club turnout of the year :D

NOOOOoooooo!

I'm at Cadwell that weekend for the MR2 Challenge series. I'm both :( 'cos this was such a great event last year, but also \:D/ 'cos I'll be racing around Cadwell, which is clearly one of the best circuits in the UK.

I'm just off to the ring in a few hour's and i'm busy doing some last minute packing but their could be some spare places out on track when i get back due to non payment so it will be done by order of the pm's to me that they want a track ticket, first come first served of course.

1/4mile can be paid on the day and their is loads of space for that :cry:

Will be popping up the convoy posts up when i get back as well.

Pm'ed back :wink:

Just to let you know that those that haven't paid by 6pm this friday will unfortunately lose their place to the large reserve list so if you are one of them that hasn't paid but are still wanting to go out on track you will need to hurry up.

Jo, your name is down for the Southern convoy. Sleep is for the week :mrgreen:

Besides LFE is further from mine so you'd have to get up even earlier IYSWIM :wink:

Chris, the only other thing you need to make sure of is that you have a couple of quid for entry and for the 1/4 mile :wink:

IIRC, It comes to a total of £20.00...
