Calder Park Street Drags

I heard over the weekend that Calder Park is addressing the OH&S issues to allow the public to use its drag strip. I didn't believe it but, if someone could confirm this I'd appreciate it?

I think it was a great event. The track has been outgrown by the number of cars IMO.

Re: what size injectors you running 2.6T and fuel rail Q's

Nothing wrong with the std FPR. Fuel pressure goes to about 60psi on 18 psi boost.
Tell me more about this rising rate regs.
I've seen engines make 500kw on standard regs.
