First time down the Strip this weekend, great laugh :)

Period racing, 'Pod style - Notched up my best reaction time here, 0.7307. Unfortunately the Pop had a huge V8 and nitrous...

I know that pop, 460 ford and a slight sniff, ex 60s racer, but I cant remember--------- no its WILD THING, I think it ran a low 11, but was having all sorts of traction or wheel hop problems,
Wish I had been there now, I even had the day off, put a few more faces to cars, :shock:

Camero is Nigel Paynes (only NA in Super Modified I think?) had a good look round his engine last time I was in his workshop - damn good chap, one of the good guys in my eyes!!

And Kev Slyfield's (spelling!) new Pro Mod (he used to own the yellow Belverdere (spelling!!) - should be interesting to watch this coming weekend

Glad you had fun Lewis, one day I will be able to come out and play again!!

No, it was great - got there really early and got 3 runs in in under an hour, then afterwards it was more like a run every half - but didn't feel it! Plenty of things to look at and people to talk to :)
