hi pals i will give you the adress for santa pod so you know were it is,SANTA POD RACEWAY,AIRFIELD RD,PODINGTON,WELLINGBOROUGH,NORTHTHANTS,NN29 7XA.

Might be a good opportunity to check out our 0 - 60 times, as discussed in the 'acceleration' thread

Probably not get to the Easter meet. The FIA Main Event on spring BH weekend looks promising, I went to that a couple of years ago, I don't think my hearing has recovered properly since

I'm thinking that could be fun, £39 for 4 days camping & mayhem

It's cool - 0-300mph in under 5 seconds has to be seen (& heard) to be believed

Camping facilities are a little limited, but hey, that's what Bongos are for

Looks like you get 5 nights camping for £39 (15.00 Thursday till 12.00 Tuesday) I've never been to any drag racing events, so I think I might just have to check my annual leave position

What do you mean by "LIMITED" as I haven't been there, but it does look like a scream

They have mobile toilet units but, by the end of a busy BH weekend you can imagine the state of them

There are some fast food outlets with the usual healthy fare

It's a great party atmosphere, though. Burning sausages and burning rubber, what more could you want!

Sounds like it might be a good idea to finally christen my Porta Potti

go for it pals, but take your ear defenders and plenty of lew rolls.we been going for ten years. i would like to propose we use the family camping as it is a bit less noisey than the main camping area, its a great family weekend, and party every night, as you drive in the main gate ask for a family camping pass for your bongo,then they will let you in family camping.sooty&georgie.

i did a thread on santa pod last september

it was the european finals......trouble was it rained like a bugger 4 2 days

and if theres no racing, you get rain off value on your ticket

so my 45 pound september ticket has a 30 pound value to it

but sunday the sun came out and made it all worth it

ive been going santa pod for the last 15 years now

its very addictive

there a sommerfield 10 mins down the road , so if you run short,, no problem

when there for 4 days,,, just stock right up... plan meals etc

there are showers available, but get up early and no problem

you can take gennies so youve always got power, and to be honest theres not much other rules

the fair might keep you awake till gone midnight, and the drunken revellers till break

but i bet you go back again

andy

Sounds like a good weekend

Like to event details here http://www.santapod.co.uk/e_easter.php

I tend to be pretty nocturnal anyway & as for the drunken revellers, I suspect there may be some involvement

well if some are up for santa pod

name a date and i will go

any fia championship will do, because of the top fuelers

but there again i dont need much of an excuse to get my backside there

we can make a bongo city

nose to tailgate in a big circle and revell in the middle lol




owwww wish someone hadnt mentioned it now



ill be here counting the days
