Do you need a lid to 1/4 mile?

Do you get a slot? Is there a huge queue?

My lad would love it I think
Morning. I haven't seen anything about needing a hard top. I'll do some digging and come back asap !

I read that a helmet is a requirement in a convertible and also passengers have to be over 18. I looked into this as was planning to take my nephew

Helmet - that makes more sense!

If you want to bring juniors, we're more than capable of keeping them occupied / hanging out with them while you go down the strip. I'm DBS checked and everything

Can't promise no swearing tho

I'm not sure how busy it'll be on the day but it does say you get unlimited runs all day:

"The signing on office which is located next to the grandstands for 1/4 mile drag runs opens at 8.30am and the track opens at 9.30am. Unlimited runs are £25 the whole day.
PLEASE MAKE SURE YOU BRING YOUR DRIVING LICENSE CARD WITH YOU AS YOU WILL NOT BE ABLE TO SIGN ON WITHOUT IT!!"

Thanks Esso & Rhys.. bugger. He loves a (well behaved) traffic light GP but I'm not surprised, I can't take him on track either

I'll bring him anyway assuming the weather isn't shat..

He probably knows more 'bad' words than you Esso, being my navigator haha
