Default R31 vs E-Series Drag Day 20th August - Time vote

We have a choice of either having the drag day from 11am - 4pm, or 4pm - 11pm. I'm tipping we will have it from 4pm - 11pm as the temperature will drop and we'll all be running better times, But I will leave it up to everyone to have their say and also put the question to the R31 skyline club.

Vote in the poll which you would prefer and post any comments in here.

4-11 for sure. Cooler air = better times, plus I can sleep in longer

i voted the morning for a few reasons. mainly cos it would be easier to be able to make it a one day thing, and be able to get home before 2am! also, it could be minus 10 degrees, and my car will still run slow as anyway! :P
it would have made it easier to organise it around work too, but i'll come either way

BargeEA: all of the private meetings we've had with Fordforuma.au have been evening meets.
makes it easier on those needing to get cars ready etc, no early mornings, no traffic etc.

Has the club ever dragged Calder Park? Im guessing its a lot more expensive to race there though...

So is it settled at the afternoon times? I'm really not looking forward to having to get up at 8am. With the guys coming over from Adelaide and staying here, we're likely to be up late so it would be sooo much better to be able to sleep in the next day!

AFTERNOON!!!!!!

For the obvious reasons, quicker times, esp. for the turbo cars (even tho i'll still be slow :P ), i'm travelling from Geelong, and others are coming from eastern suburbs. And also, 11am-4pm is 5hrs, while 4pm-11pm is 7hrs.....
