http://www.revfest.com/ $40 for driving events! NEW DATE FOR REVFEST 14 November 2010 at Cessnock Airport DRAG RACING IS GO��ALMOST!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! We have all been waiting for it and at 3pm today ANDRA confirmed their desire to be involved in drag racing at Revfest. At midday on Thursday, after flying from Adelaide (at our expense), ANDRA will be making a site inspection with delegates from the NSW Department of Sport and Recreation to issue ANDRA sanctioning and sub sequentially, a Motorsport Licence for the event!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! This is massive guys and girls and we look forward to long relationship with Australia�s Premier Drag Racing organization. Brenton Myers will be our point of contact at ANDRA and he has been really enthusiastic about this relationship. Safety wise: ANDRA Day Licenses: Are $5 each with no personal accident insurance cover. For a further optional fee of $5 the entrant will be covered for personal accident insurance at the Category 2 level. Category 2 cover applies to the driver or rider only. ANDRA Helmet Requirements: All vehicles slower than 7.00 seconds over the 1/8th mile are permitted to use open or full face helmet meeting one of the following standards: � SNELL SA2000, SA2005, SA2010, SFI 31.1 (US) � SNELL M2000, M2005, M2010, SFI 41.1 (US) � BS 6658-1985 � AS/NZS 1698:2006 OR AS/NZS 1698 - CERTIFIED BY SAI GLOBAL (�5� TICKS) Please note: SNELL M2000 and SNELL SA2000 will not be permitted for use as of 1/08/2011. �ANDRA is very supportive of the promotion of Drag Racing in regional areas and recognizes the opportunities to showcase and grow the sport within the Cessnock / Newcastle / Hunter Valley region of NSW,� said Brenton. �Best wishes with all your plans to stage a safe and family friendly event.� Stay tuned for more updates�� ************************************************** *** TROPHIES AND CASH FOR DRIVING EVENT WINNERS! We will now be running full competition Powerskids and Burnouts with trophies and prize-money for each. Trophies from First to 10th in the Burnouts and for First and Second place in the Powerskids. No, the entry fee will not be going up and will stay at just $40 until the day. We have a bunch of kick-ass trophies for these events and will pay $1000, $500 and $250 for top three places in the burnouts and $300 for the best Powerskid on the day. We are still working on the drag racing licence and will keep you up to date on this over the next few days! ************************************************** *** With just two weeks to go to Revfest things are really on the wind up. As luck has it our original date of the 31st looks like it would have been rained out anyway. There�s some really exciting stuff happening behind the scenes at the moment. These crazy guys from Team Cunning Stunts will be providing some awesome burnout and wheel-stand demonstrations on their bikes and it looks like Team Armygeddon will be attending the Revfest with a couple of their custom built burnout machines. Locally, the boys at Kranky Kustoms have been on the tools to get Dayna Gough�s burnout comp-winning, Clevo-powered XD up and running with a new supercharger and injector hat. This fire-breathing monster should really stick it to the boys in the burnout and Power skid demonstrations. Other cool cars from the same stables would surely include Dan Cox's, Morris 8 Hot Rod. It�s got a tunnel-rammed 350 Chev up front with pretty smick custom trim. The car is currently on the front cover of Nitro magazine. Also from Kranky Kustoms is Peter Bink's, immaculate VG Valiant Hardtop. The 265 Hemi-powered couple probably wont get a run in the driving events but will be a welcomed addition to the Show and Shine. One of the big hitters that has confirmed his attendance is Frank Mamone and his 10.5 hemi-powered, blown and injected Chevy Nova. This hard-charging USA streeter car will have the crowd screaming for more when he amps it up in the Power Skids. Summernats Tuff Street winner, Rodney Waters will be bringing his amazing, 1500hp, blown and injected, 632ci big-block Chev-powered HQ streeter and Rodney has assured us of a big show with this car. We�ve got loads more happening and we will update daily as we get closer. For families, we�ve organized a bunch of kids rides so there is something for everyone at Revfest. Just a reminder that if you want to enter the Show and Shine with your car for free, you MUST fill in and entry for and email or post it in to us. If you are unsure whether your car qualifies, you should email us a pic. Stay tuned for more updates. EntrantTicketsTrophysRevfest FlyerRevfest Entry FormMedia Form

yeah it was a bit of a disappointment!!... the burnouts were good though! but in the whole 5 hours i was there there was only about a bit over an hour of stuff actually happening on the track,and the only people that could even see what was happening were the people in the front row off the crowd or the really tall people beacause there was no stands and i got sun burnt and blistered to a crisp waiting for everything to begin............i dont think it was worth the $35 dollars per person
