Dates are set for next years Cal Look Drag Day, moved later into the year by popular demand. Hosted at Shakespeare County Raceway we are making plans for a great weekend of VW Drag Racing.

Hope folks can make it along!

Good that you mention that Jamie. I was really surprised that there was not more noise about the first ever UK 9 sec n/a run at Bugjam. I ran in the same lane right after Udo and I can tell you it was great to see. I was dying to get to the top of the track and tell him!

I thought it was one of those 'I was there' moments, a bit like when Moody ran the first ever 9 in the UK.

Massive achievement in my book and I don't think it received the recognition it deserved.
