Does anybody know of any weekends where there is a RWYB but will also be a few more special cars going? Fireforce? Any top fuel dragsters?
My little cousin wants me to take him when i get my new car (he's only 9 but is a true petrol head).
He's never been before but i want him to see something really fast rather than watching saxo's etc all day long.
Any heads up would be appreciated.

And don't take him to a RWYB, go to a proper event, the RWYB will bore the shit out of him.

Me and a few mates went to see the FIA at the april bank holiday, the top fuelers are *WOW* It did a 1/4 mile in 4.8seconds @ 310mph
Probably the quickest thing i have ever seen, also it was a good weekend cos it wasn't full of chavtastic chariots - Good day out

What's your Cousin going to do while you're queuing up then? and running?
Are you going to let him wander round alone?

Just thinking from his point of view 
It's not the most exciting day out of you're just watching, even with company.
I reckon you'd be much better going to the 'main event', and a RWYB on your own at some other point, just IMO though...

If it has anything to do with cars he'll love it! But i see your point, he'll want to see some 'proper' drag racers rather than just stripped out gti's etc.. I'll look into and see if his dads up for it so he can be responsible for explaining to him why some bird is pouring water over her tits!

That only happens at the pikey shows.
If you go to a proper FIA championship event, like the one coming up next month, you don't get that sort of tacky shite.
