Was a good day, somehow managed to get sunburnt.

Wish I had raced now as Chris and Martin were getting decent times.

Well done to Martin for cracking the 13's, and no doubt Chris will be there this season in the Cup, chris managed a 14.2 which is almost on form with his personal best 8)

Was a cracking day :D even if it started a little dodgy....end of the day was mint just wish I had some footage :(

Good races with a back on form Chris...and cracking 13s on my last run 8)

Was a great day....congrats to Martin...excellent time (although I liked the slip from our 1st race better ;) )...Got home to watch the vids only to find that the tape is blue screen all the way thru...what ever the problem was with the 2nd half of the day has ****ed the whole thing! Well gutted as there were some cracking races and I beat most things I raced including a Supercharged VTS (he did have a prob on that run tho) and a Skyline GTS.

Was really pleased with mine as it has been a looooong time since I`ve any times to shout about and todays 14.25 @ 97.56 was my best today...a few 14.6`s, 14.5`s etc etc

P.B. 5/10/03

60 ft - 2.302
1/8 mile Time - 9.162
1/8 mile Speed - 79.040
1/4 mile Time - 14.18
1/4 mile Speed - 97.56
-----------------------------------

17/04/06

60 ft - 2.348
1/8 mile Time - 9.258
1/8 mile Speed - 78.33
1/4 mile Time - 14.25
1/4 mile Speed - 97.56

Get me manifold on and a remap and it should be in the 13`s with a bit of luck

They've re tarmaced the burnout area and they're in the process of re tarmacing the public carpark and entrance road to the pits.

The track didnt seem too bad yesterday when it was sunny it was just a shame there was the odd shower. Later in the summer when its got a bit more rubber on it should be good.

It was 10 in 25 to run.....so more expensive but worth it imo (if I knock .4 off my best evreytime that is lol) They do have loose gravel down at the end of the 1/4 though.. :shock:

They did have the good idea of giving you a race number for the whole year though so you don't have to fill in the forms every time...
