Santa Pod Flame and Thunder 21 (pics)

 Weekend away in the new daily bus (sourced via the inimitable Geordie , and very pleased I am with it too...) - down to the Pod for the first time, Flame and Thunder being the occasion.

I'll edit this post in a second with something approaching a caption for each...



Somewhere in the NE, this gets filled with a weekends worth of scoff...




Monster trucks. Designed for the inner 8 year old... rubbish photo but felt rude not including it!





The Bluebird... Course car, used over the weekend to treat the track.



Swamp Thing... absolute beauty of a thing, and what a noise




Hilarious jet Mini...




Swamp Thing in action to close the year... 



Where lunacy meets show and shine. Simply immaculate and running about 150mph quarter miles thanks to the massive jet engine...



All in all a great weekend camping despite God emptying his bathtub every morning! Already planning for next year.

Think that bluebird has been there almost as long as the track!

Thanks for posting 👍

It may look like a Bluebird, but it’s actually a gluebird

I'd forgotten that!
Must get out more often....😳

Me and swmbo were at this, too.
We didn't camp though, we 'roughed it' at Billing Premier Inn. 😁
I didn't take that many pictures, but I'll post them later on, if that's ok with the OP.

The more the merrier! I was determined to see the show with as little camera time as possible...

I love that the Jet Mini still has a pea-shooter exhaust

Still has the A series for pootling about. Presumably only around the paddock rather than to Lidl for the weekly shop...

I was also trying to watch the track action and enjoy looking at stuff rather than taking pics.
Here are the few I took.
