SANTA POD RACEWAY
The incredible thunder and bone-shaking vibration of two 8,000bhp race cars launching at 6 Gs of acceleration is an experience not to be missed! Whilst Santa Pod is renowned as the premier drag strip in Europe, it has tailored its events to appeal to motorsport and non-motorsport fans alike. The venue also prides itself on offering good value for money events and delivering all round entertainment to both families and enthusiasts. Whether you love to watch 300mph Top Fuel Dragsters or fancy your own chances at a RWYB Public Track Day, your Santa Pod experience will be a memorable one! The FIA/UEM European Drag Racing Championships comprise eight classes of both cars and bikes, packing a real punch as they campaign across Europe with over a hundred teams. The stars of the show are the long and low "Top Fuel" Dragsters covering the ¼ mile dragstrip in around four seconds at over 300mph! "From a standing start, an 8000bhp Top Fuel Dragster accelerates from 0-100mph in about 0.9 seconds, faster than a fighter jet or a Formula One race car". Santa Pod Raceway is proud to host both the first and final rounds of the European Championship's four days of non-stop racing action, with over twenty classes of cars and bikes including a packed programme of off track entertainment in the Live Action Arena, with Monster Trucks, stunts and displays, traders, side-shows, kids entertainment (kids go free!), catering, licensed bars and camping for weekenders.

VENOM RACING
Venom Racing is a fuel altered drag racing team. Team members held the European alcohol altered record (6.92 seconds for the quarter mile at 198 mph) for seven years until they decided to stop racing. The record has since been broken but the Venom team have now decided to make an attempt to regain it. The team is the same as before and all are working very well together. Venom Racing will be competing in seven meetings in the United Kingdom as well as at least one in Europe - and they will also be appearing at various shows throughout the year. Marketing potential with Venom Racing is huge, the team emphasise. The cars are the wildest, most entertaining form of motorsport known to man, reaching speeds of 100 mph in just one second, achieving speeds of 250 mph in seven seconds or less. The engines produce in excess of 4,000 horsepower. More information is available via the Venom Racing website or send an email. Contact: Tony Betts.
