Not too shabby for a first time out Rookie
RWF rule  8)

PS ron martin;s been winding us up his best was a 13.5  ::)

Oh it was not me that said what time he had ran.

 :o :o So 13.5 seconds was the best run is a type 1 in RWYB at BugJam 2010??

Think its a full weight street car RWB thing dude  ;)

Andy you cock it was his first time out on the 1/4 did three passes in a  full weight oval. 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.

how did he understand you if he didnt speak english ;D :D

i went 12.13@108mph a pb for me in my streetcar ;D awesome weekend

Russ Fellows ran a 9.21 @ 151mph after a traumatic weekend.

Just wish i'd been there.

im sitting here waiting for the times and pictures....... its rubbish without eurodragster's coverage.


Martin.

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 Harv.

well im awake still very tired but had a fab weekend actually the best bug jam ive ever had and the first ever time for me and my car with the big motor on the 1/4 mile

this wouldnt have happened except for the great help of martin "boom boom" greaves and the loan of rocket ron's trailer ,thankyou chaps really appreciate it

and martin next time i do a run ill take the spare wheel out and the jack ,i totally forgot i left them in there  :D

and glen im nipping at your heals  ;)

Well done Harvey, that's a fantastic time first time out!

Wished I could have been there but some other commitments meant
otherwise :D

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!  ;D

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. :D

I now told them to make a information board about the car. ;)

hey lee martin and myself have thought up some great names ;) lol


and thankyou all its was a great weekend

and thanks again martin i really couldnt done it with out you  ;D

 ;)

Well done Boom Boom, it's good to see that Paper,Scissors,Stone isn't lost in translation :D

Yes it was good as i won too. :D

Nice to meet you Harv, thanks for the beer.

Russ

Hi to all

Did all these classes http://www.santapod.co.uk/e_entrylist_bj24.php race there at Bug Jam ? So it was not only a run what ya brung event ?

Udo

I have a great deal of difficulty understanding Martin at the best of time's and Ive known him for 20 odd years , So hat's off to the french  ;D

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  ;D

It would be very easy to be condescending  and very non politically correct right about now wouldn't it  ::) ;D ;)

I've never heard of Martin and I don't understand him either. Whoever he is.Oh wait, is he the one who waves his arms a lot and makes excuses? Ah, I know who you mean. Nah, never heard of him.

kick martin thread lol ;D

leave him alone you bastards   :P

:D

How could you kick Martin? He's so, cuddly ;)

About time he spent sonme timw on his own car rather than repairing stuff de didn't do right in the first place.

Kick when he's down, I say !

You couldn't miss   :D

OK Russell as you were going off on one today on the phone. :P I will say something back to you when you finish buying curry for nobby can you send him back down here thanks. :D

Oh and get off my ebay. ;D

martin u pleb! :D

You can do better than that Mr Wotton

just remind him of your PB  ;)

:D :D :D :D :D nice 1 ron

Oh don't go there , he'll sulk all weekend now  ::)

hey martin 9.91 that's way quicker than you :P
how big's your motor it displace's nearly as much hot air as you. :-* ;D

I doubt whether this monster would displace as much hot air as Boom Boom on a good day!  ;D
