With no reverse burnout and still has a gearbox that works. Because he was listening to what he was being told. Also the other car I was crewing for went 9.6. He also listened to what I was telling him. Which was good as he was French and can not speak Engish and won his class. Well Done RUDY. |

I was remarking on the fact that this was the lowest time for a type 1 at Bug Jam - that was all, probably the biggest gate entry in the year. No need to try and insult me. Good I glad he got a good time, No need to take it personally even if you were crewing for him. |

It was a great weekend. Rudys new beetle was worth the gate entry alone. An amazing piece of engineering. It looked awesome as well.  My best time was 6 hours for a 436 mile journey back home in the bug. I should have had a go at RWYB but wanted to get home intact. Last month I ran a 12.7 1/4. |

Well done Harvey, that's a fantastic time first time out! Wished I could have been there but some other commitments meant otherwise And well done again to Martin aka Boom Boom, he's worked so hard on many engines/cars recently and that's what this is all about! Lee |

if you call waving your hands around in some kind of demented fashion all weekend at a couple of Frenchmen, then Boom Boom worked bloody hard at Bug Jam! |

Thanks Matt it was also the 5 times over the weekend i had to tell someone it was not a Porsche motor and yes it's fast. I now told them to make a information board about the car. |

Udo, RWYB is all day Friday and up to the lunch break on Saturday. Then they clean the track and MSA rounds commence. I raced in VW Sportsman & Sportsman ET. Never again, I had 4 Quali's in 45 minutes! |

I've only known Martin just over a year glen and I'm none the wiser until he speaks in a French accent and flaps arms then it all comes very clear |
