Do they allow spectators or is it entry for just those taking part?

It's no spectators, or at least it was last time I was there 18months back

I applied last week, chances are very slim though I think but maybe I'll get lucky

It was always the done thing to keep the dates off of public forums. I know the events are changing a bit from the old days so ignore me if it is now acceptable.

Not so any more. The dates are published on the Vmax website
But you're right, it all used to be very hush hush

Do the cars have to be 200mph+ cars?

I had to cancel my spot as can't make it to this one. My booking has been moved to the next VMAX at Brunters.
Only a small number of cars crack 200mph. My best was a 197mph about 4yrs ago in my Stage 4.25 R35 GT-R.

I"m not there now either as away on family duties
They're great events, so I'll aim to get to the next one instead too

Stage 4.25?!?! WTF - they do stage tuning in quarters now? What next, a 0.7 stage tune?

No idea why & afaik it's only present on the GT-R but I doubt a sub 1 stage tune would ever exist as surely 1 has to be the starting point

It is odd, but I guess it's up to them what they call the stages as there doesn't seem to be hard and fast rule
I always find myself looking at GTR's and saying 'one day'. It's the boy racer in me that gives them such a pull as there's little else that touches them in terms of performance
This looks nuts, but way more than I'd ever want to spend ;

Wonder if that's drivable
