Drag Sprints...

I'm well into this. How long do you reckon the sprint run is?

I've been chatting to Gus about this. I really like MA3K's idea, but I think it's too fricking cold at the moment to do it all in one day. How about a series of three events, with a summertime final of all three in one day?

Sounds good. I'm in!

That sounds like its time to start training.

Does anyone want to meet up for a few practice sessions on the drag strip?! I've never tried it before, so it'd be fun to get a few people together, some beers, and give it a go.

Yes

likewise, well up for it, as long as its not still snowing lol.

Yep i'm up for it, even if it is snowing, as long as anyone doesn't cheat and gets traction control on their bikes...

Is that a no to snow chains then?

Sure you can have those, try slowing down with those things on though =P

Bump.

On this.

Likewise, I'm really up for this, is it still going ahead?

Get it on. Who's up for some trial runs? I'd mentioned it before, but now is the time to start organising.

Could we not have races like these, they look pretty good, would require alot of skill and look super competitive.

Sorry if im straying from the point of this thread.

That looks amazing! It'd be great to get a whole load of people and just take over a part of the city for an eveing event.

Fucking mental! Street-drome!

Problem is finding a location like that would be a hassle, although you could just put two cones at two points...

gear limit is?

A restriction placed on the cycles gear inches to avoid giving one competitor an advantage over the other. in essence to allow a fair race

A full day's action would be better suited to summer. It's cold standing around out there at the mo. Quick sprints, rapid turnover ftw!

the pie man is talking sense there

But we should also hold weekly events for those who want to pop the lungs once now and again

I've been practising drag racing, but find not having a top tube weird!!

I'm in. when's it likely to happen? I've got a sound system that can be powered by bicycles...

Really?! Why have we not been informed before now.

I think this should be put into plan immediately.

We working on something...
