Test 'n Tune Weekend at SCR, Long Marston from 5th to 7th May 2012

Following the Scottish Eliminator sledge's ETPC inspection and it being granted a Bronze level licence we have arranged a Test 'n Tune weekend at Shakespeare County Raceway, Long Marston from the 5th to 7th May.  This is to give the sledge team some valuable experience in a non competitive environment with this new sledge prior to their first event and allow pullers to get ready for the season.

All registered BTPA tractors are welcome, up to 42 engine points but no alky SS or large Modifieds, sorry.  Please let me know ASAP if you can make it so that I can add you to the list.

This weekend there is also a public drag race meeting at SCR so I need to know if you are coming to ensure passes are organised.  You will have to show your BTPA membership cards at the gate so please remember to bring them.

If you are intending to come down to help in an official capacity please also let me know.

Any further information please give me a call or send an E-mail.
