2014 1/4mile drag Info

[MoleT-5R]

Whilst meandering the web today, I came across another forum organising there drag racing season and thought this a good idea and that, put with the information gathered in one of our last conversations with one of shakey's staff at the end of last season.

1. It would be a good idea to gather all the competitor information for the use of the comentator's ( as most of us have a VP race no. and those that don't can be assigned one ) and members could change / add to their info during the season easy by just posting it up on this thread.

2. It would save time signing on, by not having to fill in the commentary info sheet if it is done in advance on this thread.

3. To collect the VP entries results at the end of the day ( these can be transfered on to a memory stick for later usage/posting complete results on the forum ) as we were informed this is possible. Obviously they will only be for the VP numbered cars

Simple info that would be required below just copy, paste and add your info ( if you don't have a VP race no., don't worry fill the form in and we'll get you one sorted )

Hopefully this will be the best season yet
