Hey guys we will need a few helpers for the event if anyone could spare a bit of time over the weekend Please PM me your phone numbers so i can contact you later this week or next. Also if there is any media access required please get in contact with me ASAP. There will be only a few media access available On another note ive had a few Members from CT contact me who dont have VL's asking if they could enter in the test and tune times etc. Does anyone have any objection with letting a few members off CT in for the tuning and maybe grudge match session? Give me your thoughts guys. Thanks Steve

I don't agree with other car racing I think on vls that make it 1 of a kind and plus I don't think people are going to pay 150 to have around 1 hours of track time i think there should be more test and tune instead of non vl class I enterd in street fight class Saturday is ok but on Sunday I can only race for 1hours no point of bringing my car back so if ur give more time for test n tune means more runs betta for others and myself sound fair?

Hi guys, Thanks for the feedback. 2 members on the CT forum have asked to enter there VK's with RB30et's. Seeing as they are almost the same vehicle to a VL and they aren't to be sneezed at + CT members I felt I would oblige. If we don't get another 20 car entrants before 15th of April i will allow 10 RB set ups into the event in any make or model of car {maximum} Your thoughts? Really would 10 non VL cars ruin the VL TURBO NATIONALS! To be honest I hear that there are plenty of people coming to the event, cars spectators etc, I have spent most of my time since December setting this event up. It will cost a minimum $30k+ to run the weekend and I am really looking forward to it. my mate who's also putting money into the event tells me I need 150 Vl's plus spectators there to break even and by the look of ticket sales, most of you guys are going to want to pay at the gate. Therefore I have no idea whether I am going to break even or not. I want to take this opportunity to Thank Ricstar and all the people who have bought tickets because without these sales we would not have been able to pay for your public liability insurance and security. but there is one simple solution DUFF588, Buy your ticket. I want a VL only event it was my idea, but i need you and others buying tickets to support the event, No matter what the result. This event is going ahead and its going to be HUGE!!! Thanks Steve

Steve, I think people will understand if you let in a few exceptions to help make up the numbers.. A VK is just a poor man's VL anyway, it will be good to see them get beaten anyway As Duf just posted and as said a few times guy's.. Get your entry forms in ASAP!!!

vl only event ftw kind of defeats the purpose of calling it the vl nats if theres gonna be other models allowed thats my opinion anyway

It's hard to keep it a vl only event considering the weekend is going to cost 30k+.. From the people who have voted and said they are coming it doesn't even cover half that.. Being the first vl nationals it's hard to estimate how many people outside of calais turbo are coming and if the weekend will be covered or not.. I don't think it would be very fair if Steve was left with a 15k or similar bill and the only way to help try cover costs is add a minimum number of non vl's for the test and tune and a demo class.. I can't see 10 non vl's being an issue or taking up much time when there is going to be atleast 100+ vl's and we wouldn't be racing them anyway.. Either way it's going to be a massive weekend..
