Ph'ers at play.........
Discussion
Nice picture of the car there, shame we didn't get up the track properly though. We've learned a lot from this weekend mind and by the looks of the numbers other people were running it will go down in history as a classic meeting. Couldn't believe the weather, even had to get my shorts out one day.
You should have said hello Mark.I've always got time for fellow PHers.Slinky came round and we had a good chat.Didn't see Bowler though...mind you,we were parked quite far away from the finish line....
My sponsors weren't chuffed at that....
Still,we won and got a speed record.Good points in the bag for a first meeting.We will only get faster..
Well done to everyone else who did PB's/won etc....and a huge round of applause for the startline/marshalls who dealt with all the oildowns/incidents in their usual professional manner....

Andy, every time Bowler left our group to come and see you he found that you were in the collection area - perhaps he should come to see you when the "Pros" are running... 
i spent a LOT of time there this weekend.Seems every time i got in the car suited up there was an oil down....i'm sure i'll catch him next time....
RedVictor,
After a number of failed attempts to catch up with you on Saturday and Sunday (you'd left for the staging lanes and I didn't feel it was right to interupt you "pre-race"
, I thought I'd pop round "nice and early" on Monday. Sadly at around 8.15, there was no sign of life in the RedVictor camp..... Sorry! They'll be another time. Hopefully you'll be at the Main Event? BTW, well done on being #1 Qualifier and taking the event
NitroWars,
Is that a dig about my preference for the Pro classes? Well if it's any consolation, I really love watching SE
PS: Thanx for the DVD: Watched R1 tonight. Cheers
Guy

no worries Guy...we'll catch up at the Main Event...and thanks.
8.15?...whoops,i was still in bed.Having nothing to do on the old girl means an extra 1/2 an hour for us these days....

Well done Andy on the win saw all but two of your runs, did you know that is lifting the front wheel/s at the top end, looks mad. Came by a couple of times but you were busy, then came by after the prize giving to say congrats, again you looked busy so said my bit and moved on. Well done mate

CONGRATS ANDY, 186MPH THROUGH THE TRAPS MUST BE FUN!
What a weekend...all i can say is my best event of my life. simple as that. with the problems we had to run that 6 made it all so worth it.
Well done to Joe Bond, Clayton Round, Bob Glassup and Jim Usher on PB's
We all put on an top show for the NFAA
Only 3rd run off of the trailer too so much more to come from the motor.

T'was a good evening Andy, thanks for your hospitality! You're always more than welcome in the pits furthest away from the start line!
