TUNER GP DRAGSTRIP

Not all cars are built for corners, some are built for outright top speed and acceleration so separate from the GP event there is the Drag Strip Challenge.

Utilising professional timing beacons and lights competitors are measured for ¼ mile, 0-60mph and 0-100mph using the back straight of the famous Snetterton Circuit. The GP event is suspended whilst the Drag Strip Challenge is underway.

Vehicle classes are identical to the GP based on vehicle type; engine size and configuration is free. For vehicle classes - see HERE.

Times are relayed live to screens in the paddock and a large 4m display in the ‘Tuner Village’ trade display area. Live commentary (one of last years highlights) gives a running report on how the teams are doing.

All entrants vehicles must display a valid tax disk, be fully UK road legal (ie no slicks) although track specific tyres must be used they must display a valid E mark designating they are legal for UK roads.

Nitrous oxide IS allowed for the Tuner GP event and whilst professional drivers are encouraged ARDS qualification is not compulsory. All competitors are encouraged to wear full safety equipment, helmets and long sleeved trousers and shirts are compulsory.
