Cheers Chaps, yeah really love to do it again next year John, be nice to get a few of us there, there was only Tim I knew and that was on Sunday, and yeah i need to order a print of it Rich, its a cracker, and Nick the rumble strips wern't as bad as they looked, i think at this instant it was the only time the wheel touched them, just bounced over them, this was on my quickest run !, with a better head surely ill be in the 39s, but i wasn't lifting at all on Sunday from the start till "bottom S", but with more power i may have had to lift and loose momentum, but that last straight is a power sapper, only just hitting 6000 revs and still in 3rd !

ive got some more pics promised so lets see, we really missed Stu not being there, Tim did some in car and took some pics so hopefully he will post them soon

I was planning on going but then did three auctions earlier in the week and had a load of stuff to catch up with. I might go to Prescott next weekend but I am still busy and need to get my GT ready (not even MoT'd it this year) for Croft Nostalgia, which is the first weekend in August.

Brian's car is quick but 50 hp short on his KAD powered thingy . It's had a long life - bit of a triggers broom. Great experience though , but getting to grips with it in a short period of time frustrating.

Still , it adds to it's long career as a car . See here a pic of one of its previous shells being folded , and one of Brian's flying efforts in the KAD thingy.

The KAD car is prepared down the road from us and there is now a special lane like a Bus lane for the KAD man to come and sort the motor on a Monday when its gone wrong on the Sunday..
