Preparations are now taking place for 2013’s  UK Cal Look Drag Day.
Featuring the DKR Birthday.
We already have support from the top UK Race and Cal Look clubs and looking forward to welcoming along many of the quickest Flat Four Hot VW’s from the UK and Europe to  2nd event this year.
Drag Day 2013
Shakespeare County Raceway 12th October

Watch this space for updates.  
    
The California Look Drag Day is a drag racing event based around the spirit of 60’s and 70’s California, surrounded by fire breathing Aircooled Race cars and Cal Lookers held here in the UK at Shakespeare County Raceway.
Racing is open to flat four VW powered vehicles that are capable of completing the ¼ mile in under 15.99 seconds.
Spectators are welcome to come and enjoy the atmosphere.
This event is ALL ABOUT RACING, aimed at the true petrol heads of the VW scene. The camaraderie of fellow racers and the roar of the flat four is the entertainment, dressing up is strictly limited to race suits and helmets. Any dancing which takes place, is from inside the vehicle and involves a steering wheel and an attempt to launch in a straight line.
We hope to welcome as many of Europe’s finest Hot VW’s along to Shakespeare County Raceway for this, the fifth annual Cal Look Drag Day .
See you there!

With the dissatisfaction with Ebi track earlier in the year (through no ones fault) what a fantastic opportunity for people to get a second bite at the cherry amongst some of the hottest air cooled cars in the uk  Smiley

 Are you thinking of coming along Russell? You'd get to spank a few v8's too Russell if that's your bag, but yes there is vw only racing as well, organised in rounds. Would love to have you along, why not pop down? Even if you can't bring a car i'm sure you'd enjoy the relaxed atmosphere, and the company is pretty good too!
