wow where do i start !!
had a frigging blast......
ran a 10.19 @ 135.42.............
popped a little wheelie..........
.
Lou ran a 11.8 something.She kicked my arse twice.
.
can barely type i'm so tired and hyped up. A truely great weekend again, the circus is THE place to be for sure.
Ive properly scared myself, 135 feels pretty fast and its beyond my comfort zone for sure.
.
bad points ?
Lou broke her dizzy drive, but no big deal.
On the way home i realised i lost my phone in the grass at shakey, phone was junk BUT ive lost all my contacts, which is really bad for business.
About 70 miles from home the truck lost power and i only just made it home with truck/car and caravan.
.
the future ??
mmmmm i'd like a 9.99 but dont know if ive got what it takes.
i might leave Lous car till the hot rod drags, as i need to focus on getting my sh1t together at those speeds.
.
huge thanks to the nsra, Al,Steve,Mark ,Martin for giving us the chance to do this stuff.
.
ROLL ON DRAGSTALGIA !!!!!!!!!

Really pleased for you and Lou Mike. I will have to find some time at the Hot Rod Drags to actually see some cars go down the track. I'm still waiting to see a picture of that wheelstand though.
That 9 will come I'm sure.

Will do Mike. Where do you think you lost the phone? I can check to see if the litter pickers have found one. I should be down at the track later this week so if they have it, or can have a scout around, you never know, you may get it back.
