Can I arrange to meet someone at the gate and come in as support vehicle/crew?? That way I get to park the ute in the pits instead of out the back of beyond. Unless of course it is p*ssing down with rain. LOL Cheers, Chris |

I'm hoping to get there. I'm not due to finish work till around 7:30, but I'll be trying my hardest to dissapear around 4 or so. If I fail at that, I'll go and spectate. Hopefully I'll see a certain blue EL...chasing 15.2...

Left the best to last, 13.869 @ 101.15mph 2.171 60'(dunlop9000) and what made it the best was I smoked a SS on that last run.
What a learning curve, miss gear,stuck gear,hit limiter, sit on line frying. |

It was the slipperiest night that I've been out there & I know I wasn't the only one who was finding it tough going but I matched my best time so i can't complain but I had to take off gently & still had alot of wheel spin so I'm looking forward to winter & some cold nights & hopefully better times.
I got a flat on the way home which was annoying as the same thing happened to me last time I went out there but to the otherside. |
