It sure looked like you were having a good time in there, I hate to say it but a late run Sunday would probably have seen you in the 11's. That said you still have that to look forward to which is no bad thing...

 Cool

I think he may have done, trouble is the burgers were fu*k*ng great!  Grin

rain Sunday morning meant Russell only got one run before he had to fly home, after bending his arm he almost booked a later flight.  All this was after the dogs engine was emptied of water!!!! Shocked

But we did get to see a heads up between Russ and Frank( after he spent the whole weekend trying to get it to run, including convincing the tech inspector it was a road legal car in Norway, complete with dodgy plates!)
