So, how did the red Chim in the last photo do against the black American thingamy?

Anyone remember?

[zippee]

The black yank tank was pulling 10-11 second runs against about 14.4 ish for the Chims

[slinky]

The black yank tank, if I'm not mistaken, is built for running in Pro-ET, the class we run the dragster in.. That's 12.99 down to 9.00...

Entertaining to sit in the stands and hear people chuckle at the black stepside pickup, after I'd spotted the Pro-ET number in the rear window...

One of the guys in my office runs a funny bike, ran his PB last weekend, 6.95 @ 193!!

Also, did you spot Martin Curbishley in his dragster with a 7.86 @ 169.85

Have a cruise through this for info about the competition cars that were there today... There are photo's as well, but only one TVR, in the background of one of sharkman's photo's!

I was there at a RWYB day once when a guy on a full-dress drag bike (funny bike? Dunno) was doing some testing. One run, he set off and got a malfunction a couple of seconds into the run, so he shut it down, sat up and coasted the rest of the way. 11 seconds @ 115mph. Coasting. Sat up. For some reason I found that scarier than the proper runs.
