Shakespeare county raceway 19th March - NOW WITH PICS

Post by Ali » 07 Mar 2006 11:31 am

Somehow I can't find the thread for this that James started a long time ago so just a quick reminder:

Test and tune day (dragstrip), think its about £10 entry and £20 to run your car for the day, about 10mins from Stratford-Upon-Avon

cheers
