Udo just had a big moment, looks like he might have broke an axle, kept it in the lane just  :o

Thomas Kemp is waiting to run now

And it sounds like Dannyboy just went 10.49 :o 8) If I heard that right well done Danny

can't confirm. but if this was indeed his time, well done.

thanks for always posting up the links for the races.

Got confirmation from his "crew chief" Andy that Danny ran 10.49, but also he went 10.47 earlier :o  Well done Danny, that's getting it done for sure :) 8)

Great news. Well Done Danny.
Lee

Spoke to him after his 10.47. He's buzzing.  Well done young Pike my lad :D

Nice pass from the Subaru powered green split bug from Holland, 8.70!!!! didn't catch the mph

Robert  ?

and now Shane Noone gets his well deserved first 11, a 11.97 well done Shane 8) :)

Awesome days racing today roll on tmw :)

happy bloody days  :D :D :D car was flying and cant wait for the proper preped track in the morning  ;D

Nice one Shane, well deserved and I am sure there is more to come :)

Thanks Richie and Lee. Yep just squeezed out an 11.97@112mph without the fanbelt. Strangely enough the car didn't perform all that well when I removed the belt considering in the morning session I ran with the belt on and got a new pb like that of 12.0@109mph racing Richie Moss !!

Put the belt back on for the last two runs in the night session and near identical 12.1's@108 mph.

Quite a few people ran pb's and good numbers in the cooler parts of the day.

Glynn Morgan ran a string of 11.2s with his turbo motor and final run another pb 11.0 Well Done Glynn !!

Mr super consistent Colin Jardine was awesome running a string of 11.6's He must have the best bracket racer I have ever seen !! Well done Colin and the Clan !!

Danny did indeed run three 10.4's and a new best terminal of 129mph - way to go Danny - awesome achievement !!

Cheers,

Shane.

Nice one lads  ;D

As Martin said. Sounded like a good day.

He is called Robert Jongen, he is racing this car for many years, not on vw shows but on the official DHRA (Dutch Hot Rod Association) drag race circuit.

Thanks Eddie, took at look at the link

Not a lot of "action" happening so far today there ::)

Good to see Jan Larsson over from Sweden with his yellow supercharged 67 beetle still out there having fun 8)

:-)
He is Swedish series winner. The trip was part of the prize winnings.
Supercharger rocks!

stupid arsed farmer decided to harvest the feilds this weekend and shut the track for over an hour  >:( >:( >:(

Long time since I was there but this type od "farmer" I remember and spreading pigshit same day too. Nice....not

Your car looked strong all weekend dude.
Good race we had. We also ran a 12.0. you should have said Richie moss and Louise. lol

Need to update your signature  ;D

Cheers Rich  :) Whoops oh yes forgot to mention Louise was riding shotgun with you dude. And you let me win !!  ;) Ps you need to update your signature as well  :D you been running 11.8's with your 2332 for a good while now  :P

So did anyone go quicker today?
Lee

nah the headwind was killer today, had another cracker of a race with the appliance rail  lost by a car length this time so its 1-1 :-) good day of banter and it was funny telling the twat in the cayman to fuck off to the back of the que and stop pushing in at the crossing lol

That was very bad for me . a broken axle on the first pass ... >:(  The track was awesome, but not much beetles in the pits. It was a nice event with a lot of good track time  - for those that could run.    Yes Robert did an 8,7 and later 8,8 with 260 km with his subaru powered car - congrats . Thomas Kemp can not drive this year after a broken valve in Hockenheim . I hope i can get  new axles from finnland until DDay  :)
