Have a great day Marty.
Looking at all the hard work/money, you’ve put into getting a really fast car, then if the weather is right, I think it will be big smiles all around.
Sorry I can’t see myself being able to get there.
Wishing you, and all the others going a great day out, my son a I really like it there last year.

good luck marty :wink: - what are the que’s like (compared to the plod) ,wont be able to make that one but hoping later on in the season

mike

ques werent too bad when i was last there (end of oct.) but the facilities, parking area and que area are ■■■■ compared to the pod, and the access road is a pot-holed gravel track!

sounds great :frowning: - must be better than the pod tho ,iv only been once and spent the whole day queing up for 4 runs (did get a 14.7 so was well worth it :lol: )

mike

I’ll be up there Marty.

Cheers,

Ben.

I’m there for the running.
Santa Pod to me, was a real waste of time, far to popular.

The access road isn’t really that bad at Shakespeare, and the rest is what you make of it.
The track is in good condition and you can get many runs in.
What more could you want?

Thats the issue with the pod, the queue times are horrendous and keeping the car to temp but without heat soaking the intake pipework is a PITA.

I wouldnt mind the pod if they took a bit more care over the organisation of stuff (like track recoverys which seem to take for ever, and prep etc) but every time i go i am spitting teeth as i push the car in more than a 1/4 mile of queue while they run up and down with the fire farce car. Then spend half an hour leaning on brooms!

Cheers,

Ben.

My car is no longer going to make it to this…

I will be there though, as I want to see Ben break into the 10’s :wink: :wink:

Crickey - and look at the queue!

If I wasn’t such a spass and could fit a gearbox I would have been there too. Well at least I know a man who can. Next time.

Looking forward to the other vid.
