Great move! Perhaps we can organise a PH get-together at the National Finals at the end of the month. Since I'll not be racing, I may have a few drinks....
I'll be there as my girlfriend(the mad/rude/aggressive/blonde German) is picking up her new car - Kev Slyfield's 489ci '66 Pontiac Belvedere with a view to running it in the German Street Eliminator series. Should be fun, especially when we start to play with the nitrous systems!

The one thought I have had regarding the nitro FCs and the (current) lack of a UK championship, is that maybe we need some sort of domestic series as a "catch all" for all the currently homeless machinery? Some sort of "Pro Open" category for stuff running sub 6.50s maybe? That's a figure plucked out of thin air, but there must be enough methanol/nitro cars and dragsters currently sat doing nothing that could run in such a class, given the chance? Make a good top billing for national events without the running costs of a full FIA class. Maybe run it as a sort of Cannonball format - nitro vs methanol, FC vs dragster, maybe even pro mods? Whilst it's good to see the FIA series getting ever better in terms of professionalism and performance, it must be marginalising many of the smaller teams?
Better join the fray then hadn't I...
Better introduce myself as well. Although my login is The Mighty... feel free to just call me Mighty, most do. I do have a real name, but it doesn't get used that often and I am a nitroholic. Although contrary to "popular" belief I actually have a lot of time for sportsman racing.
Quick congrats to Frosty for the 7's and to everyone at the Pod for a great weekend at the EF's, even though I missed Saturday afternoon.
How gutted am I... records, records and Spuff with his pedalling 5.2
Cheers for the Forum to the PH gang
