I just went down (with Lee in his Skoda) for the Sunday. Saw loads of people I know, some people I failed to recognise imediately, and met some mates of mates. All good. Some cool cool cars. Saw a bit of racing, pushed a couple of cars in the lanes. My mate Mick managed a PB with his Dart in the 10.1s so I guess he's looking for 9s next  As ever there is a link to a slideshow on Photobucket hereAnd some tasters of what you will find within...     And a couple of videos of the action... |

^^^ because its a gasser, the theory is all to do with weight transfer and traction of the start line iirc. a few of us were up there all weekend. marina van rocked it with its blown big block and the full size rusty truck with calor gas/nitros cyclinder in the back was a favourite.  |

The Jag is apparently 1300 BHP thanks to a Procharger BBC lump in it.
it's proper tubbed yet retains the full stock rear seat...
nice.
Passers were a 1960s attempt to get around the limitations of tyres and suspension of the day as the msn says through weight transfer

 Lovely. Those radiused arches look so good.  Ditto. English Gassers FTW.  I love the hint of a serious-looking rollcage lurking within.   This is also nice. |

1989 Peugeot 205. You know, the one that was parked in a ditch on the campsite at RRG'17... the glass is always full. but the ratio of air to water may vary. |
