NZPC Import All-Stars - Feb 17 - Taupo

[Guest MarkFleming]

Just a quick one to inform everybody (just in case you weren't aware) of the impending battle between Reece McGregor and the HKS Skyline from Japan.

Its on February 17 at Lakeside International Dragway in Taupo.

I'm part of the organisational team so if you have any questions let me know.

Andre Simon is driving the HKS team car against Reece plus we are attempting to have every other available Pro Import and Sport Mod team on hand for the day. Next issue of NZ Performance Car will have all the matchups...

As far as support racing is concerned (for everybody else), rather than use the usual classes, we'll be running the whole day as heads-up racing with 1-second increments separating each bracket. IE: 9.90, 10.90, 11.90, 12.90, 13.90 and 14.90. If we get enough cars for a 15.90 bracket we will do so on the day but we really don't want anybody slower than the 14.90 if possible....

Gates open 7am, spectator entrance is $25, racing is $40 (if you pre-enter at http://www.lid.co.nz) and $60 on the day if you don't pre-enter. There's another $15 day licence to pay to NZDRA if you're not already licenced.

Hit me with any other questions and I'll post up here.....one last thing, accomodation is already very thin on the ground around Taupo so I would suggest you get on to it now if you intend to stay over....

Just a quick one to let you know if you intend to race this Saturday then tonight is your last chance to pre-enter.

The online discount and a chance to win your pre-entry money back closes at midnight.....so get over to http://www.lid.co.nz if you don't want to pay extra on the day.

Don't forget, gates open at 7am so if you do make your mind up that you want to race on the day, then get to Lakeside as early as possible - entries and scrutineering close at 9.30am - bring a helmet....
