You don't have to race.

Possibly. What is the crack with helmets again? Tiny racecar may require one...

[davidfowler2000]

• Helmets - 1/4 Mile Drag Strip

• Helmets are compulsory on the 1/4 mile drag strip for any soft top vehicles or vehicles whose Terminal velocity is 120mph or higher. We strongly recommend that all participants use a helmet.

 

 

Also...

I may or may not be there. May have sold the turbo brick by then.

Hold me close tiny racecar will need an helmets, over and above the one driving it!

[320touring]

Can I rent or borrow a helmet?

 

Or do you guys in tin-tops go bareheaded?

most folk run bare headed, but my brother and I use wur helmets.

 

welcome to borrow from us when running if you want

[Richard]

Gates open 9:30, racing from 10-4.

Terminal velocity of the council estate was about 71mph over the 1/4 mile. I didn't bother with a helmet as I'd have done more damage to Fife than Fife would have done to me.

[Bucketeer]

I'm almost certain I saw no-one driving a roofed vehicle wearing a helmet last time, irrespective of potential speed.

Most importantly, helmets restrict the ability to munch steak and haggis pie, as I believe Ayrton Senna also bemoaned.

They don't like people sitting in the back though, as I found out.

As luck would have it I have a full face helmet, complete with certification. For downhill mountain biking...

The guy in the Skyline did, but then he was a drift guy. He set the third fastest time ever at about 155 terminal speed

I may have to attempt to get the tiny racecar to actually give me full throttle. I may require new underwear.

[The Moog]

Check your driveshafts, last tiny race car did 1 run at 34 mph and 1 run at broken driveshafts!

I have every* faith* in the quality engineering of this beast.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

And breakdown cover.

Last time I did it we stuck out by a mile. Just look for the guys who are laughing alot and not taking it even remotley serious.

Anyone travelling via central Scotland is welcome to use the helmet I brought...

[320touring]

I shall PM you my tel numero

[DodgyBastard]

You definitely won't have any trouble finding the rest of AS, there's usually plenty of space around them too.

[320touring]

Final rollcall for this...

[cms206]

Whats the score? 0815 at Auld Inns?

[320touring]

Whats the score? 0815 at Auld Inns?

Aye:)

[Richard]

I'm on for this, not sure if it will be 1 or 2 yet, but I'll be going direct.

[dome]

I may manage a brief appearance depending on holiday packing-flying out of embra tomorrow night.

 

If I do come it'll likely be the Beemmer. Sorry

[cms206]

I have a day pass from the wife. Huzzah!

[davidfowler2000]

I'll make an effort this time
