No weigh in, brakelines and visual inspection of the brakes is normal...
there is NO DRAG RACING at EBI!!! Only Dragster Exhibision Runs, Demonstrations ONLY!!!! OK!!! :-) this is for insurance reasons and to be able to use the track, any kind of autosport racing need to be ruled by the oficial governing sanctioning body... we don't want to use them.. FIA etc are kinda tough... so just call it Demo Racing!

No dragracing is a figure of speech right Kobus

I understand it,see ya there dude
