Thanks Richie,

After seeing Hot Rod and their excellent coverage of the event I actually believe you get a better view at home. But then again...no sunburn so count me in. |

There are a multitude of different classes, not just the 6-second headline cars. Last year Mick Wilkes from just by me took his car out and won the Spirit of Drag Week trophy. He's got a Bedford HA Viva van with a turbo Vauxhall motor and I think runs well into the 11s. He's often at Shakey and the Pod. Go on Richie, take the old cab out for it next year!

Or a fast rental each  It's street legal, insured, and may only need a new set of tires after the "roadtrip" is done |

If you have a read of this and see what you miss watching on line then realise how much fun it would be to participate the drive alone would give a lifetimes memories and the racing is a bonus http://www.yellowbullet.com/forum/showthread.php?t=600056 |
