Default Next AFF Drag meet @ Heathcote

Hey guys, I was wondering when AFF will be hosting another drag racing meet at Heathcote (or Calder)?
After catching up with everyone today at the Cruise, it just reminded me of how long it has been since Septembers meet!! Well for me anyway

Cheers

Agreed.

I know many people just go for the social aspect, but it is useless racing in 35+ degree heat.

We will see what the forecast is like for mid January but it is likely to be March given the prediction for a hot summer.

Now that we have a skid pan day planed for the 18th of March, it may look like the drag day will be pushed back.
