What times do people expect to get on the drag strip?<br>
<br>
My car is gonna be off the road this coming week to sort its niggles out for Santa Pod. It's going to be the fastest Inca yellow and primer 1850 with the reg number FAA 376S <!--EZCODE EMOTICON START :D --><img src=http://www.ezboard.com/images/emoticons/happy.gif ALT=":D"><!--EZCODE EMOTICON END-->

Which is what they did last time I organised a TDC stand there and one reason why I left well alone this time - like I've not got enough stress in my life as it is...<!--EZCODE EMOTICON START :o --><img src=http://www.ezboard.com/images/emoticons/embarassed.gif ALT=":o"><!--EZCODE EMOTICON END-->

Darren if you drop me a text or give me a bell on :<br>
<br>
oh seven seven 2 four four 3 four zero zero 8<br>
<br>
Then I can come give you a car pass to skip the que, and hop right in to the show (of course, you have to stick your car on our Retro-Rides stand....should be 60-80 cars strong this year!)<br>
<br>
Easy access to the strip from there, too <!--EZCODE EMOTICON START ;) --><img src=http://www.ezboard.com/images/emoticons/wink.gif ALT=";)"><!--EZCODE EMOTICON END--> <br>

Might even see you en route, we're heading down for 8:45 ish

I think they quoted mid 15's for the group 2 cars in the 70's. I'd be happy with that. I did a 17.9 at the last retro show I went to in my Nissan Patrol.<!--EZCODE EMOTICON START :lol --><img src=http://www.ezboard.com/images/emoticons/laugh.gif ALT=":lol"><!--EZCODE EMOTICON END--> <br>

I have to say (computer fixed now!) the sight of a Dolly breaking sideways at the change of every gear was most entertaining.<br>
The crackpot that did the speaking was lost for words, apart from "that is an insane car"........
