Hitch a ride with Graham Kennedy.
He comes up and drags every meeting.

It has to run 12.99 or better to run in Super Street, otherwise you can only run it at street meets.

i'm sure you could enter in other meets throughout the year such as motorvation etc. dare i say even those sports compacts etc. i'm sure they'd have a class for the 8's etc. only problem is you have to put up with the farting exhausts all day. hehehe

go onto the motorplex website and check out some dates.

If you are that keen change jobs, street meets finish soon anyway so maybe when they start up again late in the year u may have another job by then, good luck with the new job idea

you can enter any national event in super street and run whatever you can, but you must dial in a 12.99 or better in the eliminations. Last meeting this season is 14 april, entries closed tonight but you can late enter. Barring that last fast friday is 27 april. Check the motorplex website for that one, come up friday and go home early if you are keen.
