GENERAL INFORMATION ON THEME NIGHTS
Since 2015, Perth Motorplex has often hosted special theme nights for particular cars or bikes.
Q: Are these WhoopAss Wednesdays still open to other competitors?
A: Absolutely. In fact, some of our theme nights are so obscure, only around 10 or 15 cars turn up. The other 150 or so are normal competitors.
Q: Why do we host theme nights?
A: Several reasons:
- Sometimes, certain cars are bikes are seriously cool.
- To keep things interesting
- To give people (who may have never gone down the drag strip) a chance to try out the drag strip for a smaller than usual fee
- To encourage new people to come down and give it a go.
Whilst we have theme nights for some cars or bikes, there is still plenty of time for everyone else to get numerous runs down the drag strip each Wednesday Night between September and May.
WANT TO ENTER THE BURNOUTS?
If you would like to have a go on the Snakepit – simply pre book your place by contacting the Perth Motorplex office 9am to 5pm during the week prior to the Wednesday you want to skid: (08) 9419 6622.
You can only book during the week prior to the event – so get in early each Thursday to ensure your place on the ‘Snakepit’. Most Wednesday nights are limited to Ten burnout cars unless it’s advertised as an “Hour of Power” where up to twenty Burnout cars will pound the ground from 9:00pm till approx. 10:00pm to close off the night.
On normal nights the winner as judged by crowd response will receive a Sick Skid Plate and Free Entry to another Formula Tech Performance Whoop Ass Wednesday event during the season. However on the Hour of Power Nights the burnouts are judged by selected Motorplex Officials.
