hmmmm' i could jump in my nephews banger this weekend and have a lil practis
you'll be surprised. The armco doesnt actually get hit that often. The track is very wide.

How many times you see people hitting kerbs on s1? it happens, but not that often.

I'v just seen the damage it does to banger cars is all'
Lets hope everyone get thru the day without kissing kerbs,
should be a fun event.
What is the charge going to be for spectators?
and is it just around and around or will there be cones up the strate bits to make things more intresting?
i'll let Nev know about this one he will probably get crap loads of people to come along, mite even see him skid hes new project.

Nev loves arena. He'll be a definate. Doubt he'll bring the new toy though.

£8 for spectators. It should b really busy.

Can't you get someone to drive your car down for you? Arena is awesome.


Hopefully these will be running more regularly. Hopefully 1 per month if all goes well.

Nope it's not road legal and I wouldn't really want to risk my competition car 1 week before JDM Allstars anyway, but would've used another car.

As I say I hope these can be a regular thing as I think they will be great fun
