Anyone going to Donny South this Sunday? I'll be there hopefully taking part in the 0-60 sprints 
www.donnyshow.co.uk/
" Once again at Ripspeed Donny South in 2006, we'll be enjoying a shootout between some of the fastest cars in the land on the 0-60 'Sprint Strip'.
Using the airfield runway, this 'Run-What-You-Brung' challenge offers stonking prize money of £250 per category:
4 Cylinder
Non-4 Cylinder
Safety is paramount, and all cars are scrutineered. They must be 100% road legal to take part. Helmets must be worn - if you have one, then bring it with you.
You can book in on the day by visiting the office at the Sprint Strip, and entry is £15 for 3 runs. "

Would having the rear anti roll bar disconnected effect fast starts?
I,ve disconnected mine trying to trace a knocking from the rear, which confirmed it to be the roll bar bushes.
So should I put it back on for tomorrow?
The car drives fine without it, but i've not taken it to its extremes.

gates open at 9am - 5.30 pm I was thinking of getting there about 10 as the car park fills up quickly. (but then my 10 is like most other peoples 11 
)
Last year I parked in the car park and walked inside, then decided to do the sprint. I had to walk miles back to the car then drive it back into the show ground/sprint strip. Not sure if this is the way you normally do it???

hi Dave
mark has already left, should be there now, he was meeting focused on the way.
I may go down later with the kids if it stays dry, so might see you later

Hi Tracey. It's like sitting watching paint dry waiting for the rain to ease off! Just typical. Hopefully will see you, the kids and Mark later...

You didn't miss much really, although the weather held off for the most part.
The event, in my opinion wasn't all that either, last year was much better. And the strip, they changed it from 0-60 to 1/8 mile and only ran a single lane with no christmas tree and no timing clocks on display.
I didn't race my car in the end due to the above and also my clutch is just about had it
