Looking at Eurodragster, from O/FF we have James Wooton, Adele Woodbridge, Bernard Newbury and Jim Smith, all of who are on here. I'm going early Saturday morning just to spectate and generally get in the way, and my better half is coming down on Saturday evening.

Looks like Phil- (VW Pro) is dropping out. So don't think there are enough to run the class now. Just debating what to do- I need some more track time- but could do with the funds to get the motor mapped.  Undecided

I spotted on Eurodragster that you'd upped to 3500cc, but I think Adele beats you - she's listed as having a 23332cc motor! Wink

See you on Saturday!

So, anyone who went to this would have got cold and wet - however, they would also have seen James running consistent low 10s with some HUGE wheelstands, Adele getting to grips with a few gremlins and hitting more low 11s, Jim Smith running a 10.7 with a wailing clutch - on the rev-limiter the whole length of the track, but best of all - Bernie taking a VERY, and I mean VERY long way round to the stripe and still clocking a 10.3 i think it was.

BIG respect for not pedalling and still keeping the car on the track - was truely awesome to watch.

Was good to meet some of you - i guess you'll all be back there for Open Sport Nationals?

I really hope so too, it all really hangs on how quick I can get the VOSA check done after the motor's finished
