Did you tell them about the 'eligibility inspection' yet? Kiss

I suggest every competitor has to give me a hug and a kiss... trouble is, Ratto and Carlos would be first in line! Shocked

Hi Suzy

I mailed with Kathie Craig and she told me about the fun they had and all looking forward to the next event !!
Would be interesting what events Adel is planning to race . Bugin , SPA or Dragday and England ?

Keith,

I am sure the ladies would not mind giving you a hug & kiss!  I will save you the #1 spot in line at Bug-In 33. No offense Ratto and Carlos!


Udo,

Not sure about Adele yet!  I am sure it depends on her back, and how she is feeling.  I hope she can race alot, and I hope to see her race at EBI2, along with Karin, and the other ladies!
Yes. Kathie at Berg's has done really well, and has had a great time getting back into it.  Dee Berg did really well also.  It was great to see them both out there.  I worked for Gene & Dee back in the 80's, and have been friends with them before that!  Awesome people to hang out with!

Really looking forward to meeting and seeing everyone again!

Sorry i've not replied on here for a little while! Back Op over, all Spinal Corsetted up and in physio! Cheesy

Back to business.......

Susy and i have been sorting out the bits and bobs, and i will be contacting guys who offered sponsorship, thanks to Russell and Udo included!

I hope to be out this year, and i hope to be able to bring the car to EBI and race it !

Udo,

I would like to run powederpuff at Spa, however i have not approached the guys yet, also would depend on numbers too ?

Avon Park have also thrown their weight against the series, and have offered several dates if we want them. If we can get enough interest i have a possible weekend in mind in October, again i think we would need 8-10 ladies to go ahead with it !

Ingrid & JR,

That's great.  I remember Ingrid at EBI! - she was pregnant and not racing that weekend.  I have a great photo of here standing next to her car with the name on it.
Ingrid (I-Girl)

Sorry I will miss you guys this year - but my husband will be there to help support the ladies that are racing!

Adele is doing a great job with the PowderPuff in Europe, and I am really looking forward to seeing & meeting her and Steve at Bug-In.

Take Care & Good Luck!

Hey Kobus,

We are either basing it on, Quickest 3: Best time of every lady at the end of the weekend
or Bracket, but then the ladies may need more runs than they may get, to get used to their dial in.

Yeah that's pretty much the same idea we had also! We'd write down each and every time that the girls run and work out who was the most consistent so they dont have to dial in any times! We're meeting up with Kobus this weekend so we should be sorting it then!

As a side note sponsership emails have gone out (to those we have addresses for!) and so far we have 2 sponsors for the girls along us,Vintage Air.

We make ET-Backet runs each weekend at Bitburg and every competitor can choose his own index . I think the best way would be qualifying on Saturday (own Lineup for the ladies ) and Sunday bracket racing .

Thanks for the support everyone! As Torben says the more girls the better!! There is a limited number of spaces available for all drag racing so if you have any lady friends interested please sign them up as soon as possible!

The two top prizes for the girls will be quickest female and most consistent. We have some very special prizes to award aswell as a goodie bag for every girl entered!

On a side note Jo and I raced in Powderpuff at last weekends BugIn and had an amazing time!! Thanks to Susy, Mike, Richie, Martin and especially Steve D for the loan of the car!!
