Thanks for bumping this Deckie, just to re iterate, we need 75 yes 75 vehicles to make this happen, i am currently inundated with water coolers from honda haven, track pirate, h2o drag day wanting to book in, i know its january, and I've told these guys we are holding fire on h2o entry, granted i think 20 h2o cars will make the numbers up, but before i pull the trigger, i need people to confirm they want in so i can get an idea early in my head and not leave ANY air-cooled guys disappointed, as me and dave have said, to make this a 2 day event we need 75 cars entered, we will do our upmost to keep the majority stake air-cooled, but if i need to allocate a bit more to h2o just to make it a 2 day event, without question i will. I would sooner have a few more water coolers splitting the field than refund a percentage of peoples race entries and go back to one day. Here to help folks, just fire away if you have any questions.

Looks like The car will definitely be ready for august, but I won't be able to make it at all, not even as a spectator, this year unfortunately.I think I'm destined not to ever run a car up the strip.So I'm out guys.

Book it into one of the events before then, usually Honda Heaven organised I think? Not as many aircooled there but I'd hazard a guess that there will still be plenty of beetles at it - it's the same strip so you'll still get the buzz from tearing down it in your 1303 :)

ah they always go late, you'll get the drag day in just before they induce her.
Sure isn't Duts going to VolksWorld the day his mini-me is due on the strength that she'll go beyond the due date.

Be grand...
