2012 Santa Pod Main Event (1-4 June)
Discussion
It's a fuss over nothing mrmr96. Rest assured, you are in for one of the most unforgettable motorsport experiences of your life. When people go for the the first time and see what it's like they simply can't believe what they're seeing. You'll love it, and thats a promise.
Can't wait to see your posts here after the event.
Expect this sort of thing -

It will be awesome! There will be plenty of quick Pro action and some nice side by side at the line Sportsman action too - for example in the class im running in there will be 44 cars going for 32 spots in eliminations and im sure that there will be only thousandths of a second seperating the top competitiors... Im just hoping to make it into the field and not DNQ!

That's not just the first time, I've been in regular states of disbelief whilst watching drag racing for decades!!!There's no way of describing it mate you just have to be there, as literally anyone who has seen/heard/felt/smelled/tasted it will testify.
Don't be put off by the depleted numbers compared to recent years, it only takes two to drag race and one great race alone can make the whole weekend worthwhile. I'm sure there'll be plenty of them.

Take earplugs too.
My choice would be the biggest ear defenders your workshop has to offer,especially for the blown classes, if you´re sitting front row.
If you are wearing prescription glasses with antireflex coating,
be careful as unburnt nitro vapors can damage the coating permanently.
Don´t take your finest clothes as they might have some small black specks afterwards,
when the hot rubber in the burnout clouds descends onto fabric it sort of vulcanizes,
you haven´t been close to a track without "Goodyear freckles" which look funny though...
