Thanks for the link, brilliant. Even people who have never been drag racing would enjoy that.

Very good find, Lee. Interesting to see Barry 'Baz' Young on there, sounding very Birmingham for an Australian! Barry used to run Pro Comp over here back in the 1970's, I believe Mickey Moore of Mob altered fame was also involved in that team.

Yeah his hybrid accent is quite amusing He seems to be having plenty of fun!

Hopefully a network pick the show up and run a series, to say it was done on a budget with only a couple of cameras I think it's a decent watch.

'Mo' came to Bakersfield's Californian Hot Rod Reunion last October with Norm and I, and met up with his long time friend and former race car partner Bazz. If you have not seen this you may find it interesting:

Thanks, that was a good read. Somehow this sport never seems to leave you!

Yes hopefully it gets to make it to a series, would be great to see a whole season's worth shot like this. Not too much extraneous nonsense put in to try to somehow attract a non-interested audience, just good, atmospheric pit and track action.
