The rules are simple.Cars will have to run a spec 100 octane unleaded fuel,a block treaded tire,comply with UK road regulations and they will all have to complete a 30 mile road cruise.The 4 UK cars are Steve Pateman’s Vauxhall Calibra, Ian Hook’s 1934 Ford Coupe, Jeff Meads 1953 Ford Popular and Andy Frost’s 1972 Vauxhall VX4/90 FD.
The race itself is being held at No Problem Raceway in Louisiana on the 12th/13th March 2005 which is the best track in the southern USA.With an expected 10,000 crowd there is bound to be plenty of vocal support.though obviously the fans will be mostly home supporters. There will however be a small British and Canadian contingent of fans cheering the away sides every pass down the track. If you are interested in coming to support the team then contact Andy Frost for travel details on redvictor1@hotmail.com

In approximately 3 weeks time, four of the
UK’s
fastest street legal cars will embark on an epic journey across
the Atlantic.The idea is to take on the might of the USA and
Canada in the “World Street Race”. Four cars from
each country will do battle over the ¼ mile for the title
of Worlds fastest street legal car.
Of
course these are no ordinary cars as they are far and away the
fastest road
legal cars in Europe.Try 0-60mph in under 2 secs
and ¼ mile times in the mid to low 8sec zone with speeds
of 170mph plus…...
Of course
the racers couldn’t have undertaken such a huge
logistical exercise with out the help of a great many people and
the support of a lot of companies in the UK and USA.
Last but not least all the generous individuals who have donated
items and money towards our cause who all know who they are but
are too numerous to mention.
