FTO Drivers Club, Western Australia

Hi all.

Spring is here, and Whoop Ass Wednesdays are back at Quit Motorplex, Kwinana.

So on the evening of October 27th, let's head down and get some quarter mile runs under our belts.

*** DATE UPDATE - SEE POST BELOW ***

There will be a prize (a small prize, hehe) for the fastest FTO elapsed time of the night. And yes, gazillion horsepower twin turbo conversion FTOs will qualify!

All you need is a helmet, a long-sleeve shirt, long pants and enclosed footwear.

So let me know if you're thinking of dropping in for a few blasts down the drag strip!

PS. If the weather is bad we'll just delay by a week. The Motorplex runs this each and every Wednesday through to May.

You can race your car or bike as many times as you wish and you will find the staff on hand only too willing to ensure that your first experience at Drag Racing is an enjoyable one.

To ensure everyone gets a number of runs each Wednesday - entries are restricted to 160, however those missing out will be given a voucher that will guarantee that they get to race on the following Wednesday night.

In answer to a separate post from Vlad about this being too close to PAS...

So, let's make the drag night a week or two later then!

Nobody has stuck their hand up to say they are definitely coming on Wed 27th, so as far as I'm concerned that makes a date change 100% fair game, hehe.

I haven't managed to get old of Leigh, Pete C has a stepper motor fault keeping his car off the road, John C may be all "driven out" by the time Wednesday comes around (occupational hazard when earning a living via a motorsport job) and you're otherwise engaged.

Seeing as Motorplex runs this evening every weekend until May (!), it's pretty easy to be flexible.

I'll email everyone this weekend, and plan an alternate date with yuz.
