    Drag Racing Season Opener 2/3rd April 2016

    Time has come folks for the Annual build up to Shakey's Opening RWYB Race weekend which as above is the weekend of 2-3rd of April, so who's up for this one. I would imagine most folks would just be doing the Sunday, as despite the warmer winter, I'm not sure the being of April will be warm enough to make a weekend of it camping overnight, but you never know it could happen. Right let's see some names and get the banter flowing on who's going to run what etc.

    Previous Volvo's 1987 745 gle 1989 745 GL 1995 855 Olive GLE 2001 V70 p2

    who says it ain't going to be pissing down in Montenegro and just may be the jet stream will move to a more favourable position and we could have some nice weather for the racing, currently the hills outside the window are turn very white....

    Tell her a remap is just having your satnav updated.....
