    Don't think I'll be getting close to the 15s, but just having another car within a length or two is good enough for me

    Will be bringing the 102, if AW11s make poor drag cars then ST162s make worse ones

    Thats really crap about the cops being around.

    They want to get it off the street but then punish people for taking it to the drags...
    Yes some cars might be slightly defectable but would they rather these same cars go find a industrial area at 1am? Oh thats right its about road saftey and saving lives!

    Meet up somewhere further away then send a scout ahead armed with a CB in an un-defectable car to check the route, Smokey And The Bandit-style

    As bad as it is, the cops are there because too many morons were doing skids exiting the event thus drew attention to it. Most of them not surprising coming out of the spectators gates.

    The minority once again ruins it for everyone and now the cops ping everyone driving past.
    If in doubt power out

    Do they Police both side of the entrances. Ie I generally come via Cowpasture road then Ferrers road. Or do they only patrol the Great Western Highway entry path.

    I'll take a punt and put myself down as a maybe. If I make it I'll be in a pretty much stock Scorpion, so anyone worried about being the slowest on the night really needn't bother
    Speaking of helmets, how little can I expect to be paying for a compliant one?

    If your Too Scared to take your car for a Drive because the Cops may pull you over then I suggest you harden the F#ck up or head over to the Classifieds and list it for sale. The police have for as long I can remeber hung our around WSID and even when it was Eastern Creek Dragway you could expect to see them almost every Wed night.

    The only thing more soft than being to scared of the Cops to drive your car is the dudes who cry about the cost of fuel.

    We all know the rules re any mods we do and those of thus who risk it take that chance every time we turn the key, But there is no point owning it if you don't drive it.

    Paul,
    Put me down for a spot. I think I will bring the 51 out for shits n Giggles. It should be good for a high 20 second pass.

    The reason I still can drive my car on the road is because I avoid attracting attention to myself when I do............ ive never been a fan of minefields and im not about to start walking into them now
