Cheers Barry, been keeping an eye and weather looks to be around 18c so as long as there is some heat in the track it will come. Should of last meeting but it shook every run but happy with 3 x 7.0's considering 3 big peddles on the 7.05 against Bob

We will be there too,

Hopefully sorted our ignition problems too!

Aiming for a low 7, that'll be most acceptable!

Went on Saturday. Thoroughly enjoyed the event. Would be ideal for a Nostalgia funnycar and topfuel series there?

i had a cracking weekend, and a few problems. saturday started out well with a PB et on only my second run, although i hit a pot hole when i took the return road too sharply and broke the wheel arch, after fixing that i went out for a few more runs, missed a gear and popped the number 4 exhaust off where it goes into the collector. sunday was awesome, i set about 10 PBs in a row and ended up with a 13.0/103 which i was astonished at, not only that but i ran 5 13.0/103 and 6 13.1/102 so got some real good consistancy....just couldnt quite break into the 12s....soo frustrating although i had a blast all weekend, big thanks to everyone who helped to make it a such a good event, i had 21 runs over the whole weekend after only expecting to get about 3 runs a day, a testiment to the shakey crew for getting through everyone so quickly

It was just suppose to be pre 71 but there was a capri and a `87 hilux racing and possibly a few others, Not that im complaining as its far from it. The hilux was running mid 11s i think it was (very impressive) Does it mean that it is not only pre 71 anymore. Im going to come with my replica jeep from 1940s. I must be able to get in on that alone.
Still had a good time and was very impressed with paul wright running a 7.4@189mph i think it was. clap
