The Valley Run 2015: Preview

Thrills, tyre smoke and some blistering fast quarter-mile times – The Valley Run is all set to return to the Ambay Valley Airstrip on January 10 – 11, 2015. This will be the third edition of the event, promoted by Elite Octane which will see cars and bikes of various makes, cubic capacities and horsepower blitz down the 402-meter drag strip in pursuit of the fastest time.

Last time around, it was 11-time world drag racing champion Rickey Gadson who stole the show aboard a tuned Kawasaki ZX-14R, setting a time of a scarcely believable 9.843 seconds for a quarter mile! On four wheels, it was Amir Tarik Gore, behind the wheel of a Nissan GT-R who clocked the fastest time of 10.508 seconds – extremely impressive for a 1.7-tonne street car!

For the 2015 edition which is just about a fortnight away, 500 entries are expected across 25 categories for stock and modified two and four wheeled drag racing enthusiasts. It will be an FMSCI-sanctioned event with world-class timing equipment to ensure accurate results.

Over 10,000 spectators are expected to attend the two-day event in Ambay Valley City, while several stalls of performance products and entertainment evenings mean there is something for everyone to look forward to at the 2015 Valley Run.
